Now this is good news and another example of why elections matter, because Presidents and a willing Senate are responsible for these positions and we need more Conservative Supreme Court Justices.

To often in the past few years have we heard Liberal judges on all to important matters say they looked to “international Law” for guidance and precedent on an issue.

The Supreme Court voted 6-3 against foreign Court interference:

Yet an even bigger issue was before the Supreme Court this Term. In Medellín v. Texas, the issue was not simply whether U.S. judges should consult foreign law to guide their decision-making; instead, the central question before the U.S. Supreme Court was whether the United Nations’ World Court has the legal authority to bind the courts of the United States. In other words, the issue was whether decisions of the World Court are superior to those of the Supreme Court, and whether Americans will be governed by the decisions of foreign judges in The Hague.

Thankfully, by a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court got this one right.

This is big news, as judges have bypassed OUR Constitution for other Countries legal decisions:

Over the past few years many Americans have become deeply concerned that judges have begun relying more and more on foreign law to decide questions of U.S. constitutional law. One doesn’t have to be a constitutional scholar to object to foreign laws and foreign courts – laws that are not enacted by our democratic government and judges who are not selected as our Constitution provides – ruling on Americans’ rights and the powers of American government. These concerns are largely well founded, and reflect the increasing degree to which modern constitutional adjudication has become altogether unmoored from the text and original understanding of the Framers.

The article is a must read and in one case, talks about how foreign countries, like Mexico, can sue the US in the World Court to help Mexican nationals and how the World Body ruled for Mexico and “ordered” the US to comply with its decision.

The US Supreme Court has ruled: I DON’T THINK SO!
