White House Prepares for Possibility of 2 Supreme Court Vacancies

Lawyers for President Obama have been working behind the scenes to prepare for the possibility of one, and maybe two Supreme Court vacancies this spring.

Court watchers believe two of the more liberal members of the court, justices John Paul Stevens and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, could decide to step aside for reasons of age and health. That would give the president his second and third chance to shape his legacy on the Supreme Court.

Last week, when Obama took the nearly unprecedented step of criticizing the court's opinion in a major campaign finance case during his State of the Union speech, some believed he was showcasing for the American people that presidential elections, and Supreme Court nominations count.

This is what we need to fear the most.  With control over the Supreme court, Obama and his radicals will have complete control over the constitution and by getting a majority in the Supreme Court, he will be able to push through just about anything without question or recourse.

This situation is the Achilles heal of our nation’s survival.

I have to say that the events of the past 12 months have made me rethink my future and the future of my family.  What kind of life will my children or yours face 20 years from now?

Certainly NOT the America that I inherited.

These are the times that try men’s souls…
