Why You Should Be Worried About Court Packing

 The isssue of packing the Supreme Court by adding four new ones should scare you even if you're a Democrat.

I doubt many people consider it a big issue but it is. Joe tells us he'll announce his court packing plans after the election which means if he does win it  the packing will probably take place. For years Biden has said it would be the right of the president to do so but it would be morally wrong. This doesn't matter now because Joe wouldn't be president. The president would be the person pulling the strings.

I'm going to make a very, very ridiculous statement but with Democrats in total control of the Court anything is possible. Abortion would become the law of the land. Joe said so last week. But let's move to the other end of the spectrum.

There was a man in the Clinton administration who was and still is hardcore liberal. He was the mayor of Chicago. He is a hateful man and that guy is Rahm Emanuel. Rahm has a brother, Ezekiel, who is a medical quack doctor. Of course, he's pro-abortion but he has advocated for the elimination of adults when they reach the age of seventy-five; it's not worth living, he stated. Tell that to Grandma Moses. Michangelo did his greatest work at 88 and John Glenn flew into space at age 77. There are many, many more who, luckily, didn't meet a forced death.

You might think this is ridiculous but are you willing to take the chance? Are you willing to put the life of your ill children into the hands of a packed court. It happened in Germany in the 1930's. You might say, "Yeah, but that can't happen here." Tell that to the Jews, to the mentally ill, the feeble and the sick who couldn't care for themselves. Well, if you're almost 75 as I or even 60 look how many changes have occurred in our laws and country in these turbulunt times.

It does give one pause, doesn't it.
