There’s an old joke that goes
thusly:
A little boy was in a cemetery with his mother. “Mommy” the boy asked,
“Do they ever bury two people in the same grave?”
“Of course not, dear,” replied the mother. “Why would you think that?”
“The tombstone back there said, ‘Here lies a lawyer and an honest
man.’”
I’ll wait until you’re finished
chuckling before I continue.
Just this morning the American
Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) decided to file a lawsuit against none other than
President Donald Trump.
Today’s suit was based on a
premise that President Trump was still both the President of the United States,
and that he has yet succumbed to all those pins in the ACLU’s voodoo doll.
It seems as though very few
lawyers in America
are happy, and they decided to file one lawsuit after another against the
current administration to get over their funk.
Apparently it’s not working.
Many congressional
representatives and senators have law degrees, and feel the need to “do
something” to stop The President from making America great again.
President Trump has been doing
something few of those elected officials have been doing for the past
two-and-a-half years: their job.
If you don’t believe me, ask
yourself why, after 29 years sucking on the federal guvment teet, Presidential
candidate Bernie Sanders is now ready to tackle the job of looting the rest of
your hard-earned money by using his other hand.
But I digress.
Every time President Trump issues
a notice for national safety, he is immediately blocked with a lawsuit. When he tries to enhance national security,
another lawsuit is filed. He wants to
help illegal alien children with furniture, and yet one more lawsuit is imposed
against his idea. And so it goes.
In fact, since he has taken office,
the Trump Administration has been deluged with literally thousands of lawsuits
– many frivolous – to stop or slow down the progress of helping American
citizens, a form of legislative speed bumps.
One would think that a trespasser
should be arrested and tried for his crime.
In today’s litigious America ,
one would be wrong.
Countless idiots use stupid
arguments with bumper sticker slogans such as, “We are better than that,” and
“No one is illegal,” are but two meaningless verbal injections used to keep the
miscreants here, illegally.
To combat these breaches in the
law, attorneys – seemingly crawling out of their sewer homes – are not only
able to help defendants with these cases, but they are also eagerly willing.
Of course, there’s a time and place
for taking sides in controversial cases, and lawyers must do their jobs, which
often include defending the likely guilty,
In any case, societal people are
guaranteed a fair trial to ensure a sense of decorum; too often that line is
smudged by rabid wannabe prosecutors.
Even non-prosecutors like members
of Congress and the Senate like to take on the roll of
judge, jury, and executioner,
even if they are grossly mistaken because of their bravado and vivid
imaginations.
Through these tactics, legal waters
are muddied even more, fueled by half-baked opinions and lynch-mob methods.
So it is with interest how poor
politicians and crony lawyer buddies are able to twist an American institution
into a years-long dog-and-pony show for political theater, clearly to avoid
having a duly elected President remain in office.
An echo of banana republic
procedures used throughout the world by rebels in the midst of overthrowing
dictators has reached our shores. But
instead of using guns and Molotov cocktails, Democrats are currently employing
arduous legalities to alter the system to suit their desires.
It’s apparent to me we need fewer
lawyers and less litigation in favor of the rule of law. That law constantly harped about is how the
President is subject “to the rule of law.”
Amen.
That important, oft-cited rule of
law also applies to illegal aliens trespassing and avoiding America ’s legal
system spouted by so many. It’s about
time to enforce those laws with similar verve.
