Let's get down to brass tacks. Kagan's refusal to recuse herself from the coming Supreme Court hearing on ObamaCare is a clear violation of the law. As a matter of fact, Kagan's actions are clearly LAWLESS!
It's time to explain to our so-called Republican Leaders that evil does indeed thrive when good men do nothing and simply sending "angry letters" calling on Kagan to recuse herself is indeed, "NOTHING!"
If our Republican Leaders are intent on sending any letters to Justice Kagan, they should simply state: 'Your refusal to recuse yourself is a violation of the law and an impeachable offense. Recuse yourself today, or we will draw up Articles of Impeachment tomorrow.'
That's the message they need to send to Elena Kagan right here and right now, and you need to tell them, in a very up-close and personal way, that you will accept nothing less! The rampant lawlessness exhibited by Barack Obama and his surrogates must stop... it must stop today!

Tell them, in no uncertain terms, that they must tell Justice Elena Kagan's that they expect her recusal from the Supreme Court hearing on ObamaCare today or they will draft her Articles of Impeachment tomorrow. Let them no that you will accept nothing less.

Yes: Kagan's Refusal To Recuse Herself Is A Clear Violation Of The Law.
Federal law (28 U.S.C., Section 455) specifically reads: "Any JUSTICE, judge, or magistrate judge of the United States SHALL disqualify himself in any proceeding in which his impartiality might reasonably be questioned." [Emphasis Ours]
Furthermore, the statute also states that a judge shall recuse himself: "Where he has served in governmental employment and in such capacity participated as counsel, adviser or material witness concerning the proceeding or expressed an opinion concerning the merits of the particular case in controversy."
There's no wiggle room here. The law does not state that a judge "should consider," or "ponder" or "think about" recusal. The law states that a justice"shall disqualify" himself... PERIOD!
And long before then-Solicitor-General Kagan was even aware that she was being considered for a nomination to the bench of the highest court of the land,she spearheaded efforts, in her capacity as Solicitor-General, to formulate the Obama Administration's rebuttals to legal challenges against ObamaCare.
Political commentator Dick Morris says: "As Solicitor-General, Kagan was the point person for defending the constitutionality of federal law before the Supreme Court. She was, in effect, the lawyer supporting the Health Care law. How can she now sit in judgment on it?"
Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich also expressed outrage: "It is unconscionable that a person who actually advised in the writing of Obamacare will now sit in judgment on what they help write. I think clearly Kagan should recuse herself. It's clearly a conflict of interest."
It's much more than "unconscionable." Kagan's refusal is LAWLESS. Why won't our Washington elites simply come out and say as much?
There's no nuance here. There's no way for Kagan to "lawyer" her way out of it.Kagan MUST recuse herself or she MUST BE IMPEACHED and any excuse our elected officials may use not to follow through on the latter is nothing more than fecklessness and cowardice; and it's high time our elected officials understand that the American people are sick and tired of their fecklessness and cowardice.
Again, Mr. McConnell, Mr. Boehner and our Republican Leaders in the House and Senate must be told that you will accept nothing less than Kagan's recusal today or her IMPEACHMENT tomorrow, and the time to send that message is right now.

Did Kagan Commit Perjury?
According to CNSNews: "White House Press Secretary Carney indicated today that Kagan had asked and answered all questions relevant to recusal at her confirmation hearings in 2010." And therein lies the rub.
CNSNews again: "During her confirmation process, Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee asked Kagan in writing if she had ever been asked or offered her opinion 'regarding the underlying legal or constitutional issues related to any proposed health care legislation… or the underlying legal or constitutional issues related to potential litigation resulting from such legislation.' Kagan replied in writing, 'No.'"
Carney is right. Kagan answered those questions... and SHE LIED. Unless, of course, the meaning of the word "no" is now to be questioned. Then again, perhaps Kagan and Obama's minions actually think that the American people will believe that the Solicitor-General (before being nominated for a seat on the high court) would NOT have "offered her opinion 'regarding the underlying legal or constitutional issues related to any proposed health care legislation....'" even though doing so WAS HER JOB!
Actually, recent emails obtained from a Freedom of Information Act request clearly show that Kagan did more than "offer her opinion." She expressed outright enthusiasm over the passage of ObamaCare!
In an email interchange with Lawrence Tribe (the subject line of the emails read: "Re: fingers and toes crossed today!"), Kagan exclaimed: "I hear they have the votes Larry!! Simply amazing." Kagan's enthusiasm over ObamaCareapparently necessitated TWO EXCLAMATION POINTS. You can almost envision her bouncing up and down in her chair as she fired off that missive.
Here's an even more damning email interchange reported by NewsMax. It's long, but the bread-crumbs are not hard to follow. The passage below shows thatKagan was clearly involved in formulating strategies to defend the constitutionality (and we use that term loosely) of ObamaCare and her written testimony to Congress during her confirmation hearing, stating otherwise, was clearly a LIE!
| "In perhaps the most damaging email chain from January 2010, two weeks before Obamacare was passed by the Senate, Brian Hauck, the senior counsel to Associate Attorney General Tom Perelli wrote to Kagan’s deputy Neal Katyal, saying that Perelli wanted 'to put together a group to get thinking about how to defend against the inevitable challenges to the health care proposals that are pending.'” "Katyal immediately replied, 'Absolutely right on. Let’s crush them. I’ll speak to Elena and designate someone,' and forwarded Hauck’s email to Kagan with a note saying, 'I am happy to do this if you are ok with it.' "Within minutes Kagan responded, 'You should do it.' And Katyal, who went on to become acting solicitor general after Kagan was elevated to the Supreme Court, emailed Hauck saying, 'Brian, Elena would definitely like OSG (Office of the Solicitor General) to be involved in this set of issues.'” "He told Hauck 'I will handle this myself,' along with an assistant 'and will bring in Elena as needed.'” |
And there it is. It can not be any clearer. Email interchanges clear show thatKAGAN LIED during her confirmation hearings for her seat on the Supreme Court and will now sit in judgment over the constitutionality of ObamaCare - even though she was instrumental in formulating the legal strategies to defend that unconstitutional law before the Supreme Court - unless our elected officials in Congress actually decide to do something really wacky and uphold the rule of law.
Be certain, our elected officials will likely attempt to throw some red-meat to the base... they'll express feigned outrage... they'll call for dog-and-pony"investigations" ... they'll flail and gnash their teeth and express their "disgust."
Don't let them get away with it.... It's not enough. No investigation is needed. Kagan's lawless actions are clear and their actions should be clear. Kagan must recuse herself today or they must draw up Articles of Impeachment tomorrow.
And that message must be sent right now because, frankly, they won't have the courage to act unless you hold their feet to the fire. There's yet another stench in Washington and the wind is coming from Elena Kagan's direction. It's time to fumigate. Let's get busy!
