SHIRLEY: No confidence in Obama - Washington Times

Posted: 28 Jan 2010 01:36 PM PST

By Craig Shirley

When President Obama stood before Congress Wednesday night, he was less the president and more a European-style prime minister who has just lost a no-confidence vote.

American politics and governance have entered a new paradigm, essentially evolving into a European-style parliamentary system.

With the near-complete polarization of the two major parties and gerrymandering practiced to perfection by both as well - resulting in just a handful of truly competitive House seats - all elections are federalized or seen as such, as in the case of New Jersey and Virginia late last year and the Senate special election in Massachusetts last week. Late last year, a special election for the state senate in Kentucky was turned into a referendum on President Obama and, as a result, a Republican won in a district that had been held by the Democrats for years.

There are no more liberal Republicans in the guise of a Jacob Javits, nor are there conservative Democrats in the persona of a Strom Thurmond.

The two parties represent competing and argumentative philosophies, as in the case of Great Britain or other Cabinet governments.

"Freedom" has been more or less the organizing viewpoint of the Republican Party from the time of its first nominee, the great explorer John C. Freemont, who ran on the slogan "Free men, free soil, Freemont" in 1856. The party deviated from time to time but saw this philosophy reintroduced by Ronald Reagan and the populist conservatives he led in the late 1970s.

Of late, "security" replaced freedom for a time as the essential philosophy of Republicans, but with the departure of George W. Bush a year ago, a struggle took place inside the party. Did it stand for Reaganism or Bushism?

Did it stand for the top-down conservatism of Edmund Burke or the bottom-up conservatism of Thomas Paine?

The results were never really in doubt, helped by Mr. Obama's unexpected headlong rush toward big-government liberalism.

Reaganism won out, and the Republican Party is moving back toward becoming a pro-freedom, anti-Washington party once again.

'Philosophy' poster containing Ten Commandments gets judge back in ... - Columbus Dispatch

Posted: 28 Jan 2010 02:09 AM PST

A second constitutional challenge to an Ohio judge's display of the Ten Commandments in his courtroom is making its way through the court system.

At issue is whether a new, self-designed and framed poster put up by Richland County Common Pleas Judge James DeWeese in his Mansfield courtroom is constitutional. He says it is. Advocates for church-state separation say it isn't.

The judge hung the poster in 2006. That was after the U.S. Supreme Court in 2005 let stand previous lower-court rulings that his first poster, which he hung in 2000, violated the constitutional separation between church and state.

On Tuesday, Americans United for Separation of Church and State joined Hindu, Jewish and other groups in filing a friend-of-the-court brief arguing that the judge's display is an unconstitutional governmental endorsement of religion. The brief was filed in the 6th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals.

DeWeese is appealing an October ruling by a federal district court that found his new display unconstitutionally endorsed particular religious views over others. The court ruled in a complaint filed in 2008 by the American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio.

Attorneys for DeWeese argue in a brief filed to the appeals court last month that the new poster is "markedly different" from the 2000 display in which he hung separate posters of the Ten Commandments and the Bill of Rights.

The new poster is titled "Philosophies of Law in Conflict," and shows two columns. On the left are the Ten Commandments, labeled "moral absolutes." On the right are seven of what the judge called "humanist precepts," which he labeled "moral relatives."

Humanism rejects religious beliefs and holds that humans control their own actions.

The poster includes a commentary by the judge. DeWeese wrote that he sees a conflict of legal philosophies in the United States. It is moral absolutism versus moral relativism or, as examples, the Ten Commandments and the humanist precepts, he wrote. He added that he believes legal philosophy must be grounded on fixed moral standards and not on moral relativism.

No matter, replied the advocates for church-state separation in their court filing. They argue that DeWeese's new poster is an attempt to "dress a religious display in secular clothing."

It is unknown when the appeals court will rule. DeWeese did not return a message seeking comment.

Politicians lack integrity - Asbury Park Press

Posted: 28 Jan 2010 01:51 PM PST

Once again, the late night talk shows are on the money when they joke about politics in New Jersey as the best money can buy.

The Monmouth County Board of Freeholders again showed its arrogance and total disregard for the electorate by approving the use of "transportation consultants." ("Monmouth extends consultants' contracts," Jan. 18.)

Regardless of party affiliation, it is politics as usual from our elected officials. They do not look at constituents' needs. Instead, they govern by the "you rub my back and I will rub yours" philosophy.

Perhaps the people we elect need to look up the words "integrity" and "character" before they are sworn into office and then govern with those ideals in mind.
