The Illinois Supreme Court has affirmed a decision by the Third District Appellate Court that ruled that the definition of a “case” for transporting a firearm does, indeed, include an automobile’s enclosed front seat console.
The current law provides for several ways that a firearm can be transported:
(4) Carries or possesses in any [...]

From Joseph Infranco and Rees Lloyd’s email:
General Douglas MacArthur famously noted that “old soldiers never die; they just fade away.” Sometimes, though, before they fade away, they get angry. And a case being argued in the Supreme Court Wednesday has veterans seeing red, white, and blue-but mostly red.
Unsurprisingly, the case will go to the [...]

The New York Times is reporting that more than a dozen state legislatures are considering crafting constitutional amendments that will make it illegal to force every citizen to buy health insurance, a key part of Obama’s healthcare plan.
If any of these state legislatures ultimately approve a constitutional change to outlaw the insurance mandates that Obama [...]

The constitutional prohibition was written to forbid the government endorsing one particular denomination as the true faith — which was the status of the “established” Church of England in Britain at the time. Nothing like that has ever been contemplated in America

Say, Whatever Happened With The Kelo v. New London Issue?

You remember that, right? The public went ballistic to a point where even the Right and Left were in agreement. The Supreme Court justices who voted in favor of New London took boatloads of mule fritters for their vote. Many States passed legislation so that couldn’t happen to their residents. Hmmm, I wonder how the development [...]

Nationally, Americans are beginning to again trust Republicans over Democrats on taxes and the economy. The overreach in spending and the constant Democratic drum beat of wanting to raise taxes on “the rich” to pay for a massive enlargement — and engorgement, really — of big government has dug into the high [...]
Catholic News Agency Needs Civics Lesson

I am sad, today. The Catholic News Agency seems to have shown that its reporters don’t know a blamed thing about the Constitution. Unfortunately, this uninformed reporter for CNS is not an isolated case, as too many Americans haven’t a clue about what is actually in the Constitution of the United States.

Is Obamacare Unconstitutional?

What if after all the Congressional wrangling over Obama’s government healthcare plan, it could be struck down by the Courts for violating the Constitution? Those pushing socialized medicine have framed medical care as a “right”, but of course it isn’t listed in the Constitution. They’ve really painted themselves into a corner by framing [...]

A few weeks ago the Weekly Standard had a ridiculously hopeful editorial about how President Obama couldn’t possibly go any further to the left with his next SCOTUS pick because of the ideological basis upon which they sold Justice Sotomayor. For the Standard, Terry Eastland was sure that the logic by which [...]

Recent events in this nation have begun to raise some questions about how far we have drifted away from the original intent of the Founding Fathers of this country. A nation originally conceived as a collection of smaller countries. Each state maintaining a level of sovereignty in the world but banded together for mutual defense. [...]
