ANOTHER OBAMA NOMINEE OUT TO LEGISLATE FROM THE BENCH!


BLOCK SENATE APPROVAL OF OBAMA
RADICAL JUDICIAL NOMINEE KAYATTA
URGENT: YOU helped us BLOCK in the U.S. Senate last year a truly terrible appointment to the federal bench: Kagan-clone, pro-abortion, pro- gay marriage Judge William Kayatta – but Obama is at it again!
Obama has already re-nominated 33 judicial candidates, all hard leftists, with Kayatta the pick of the litter. And Senate Democrats and RINOs in the Senate Judiciary Committee are again poised to APPROVE this candidate if YOU don't help STOP them NOW!

We KNOW that GOP Minority Leader Mitch McConnell would MUCH rather cut deals with Senate Democrat leader Harry Reid than stand and fight for ANYTHING except his own career advancement! But because of Obama's flagrant ABUSE of the nominations process with "non-recess / recess appointments" and other Executive branch encroachments upon Congressional powers powers – not to mention the extreme leftward lurch of the federal judiciary that is contributing to the ruin of America – we need to block EVERY ONE of these nominees!
Start TODAY! Tell the Senate to JUST SAY NO to Obama, NO to Harry Reid and RINO Mitch McConnell deal-making, NO to Judge William J. Kayatta, Jr. – nominee to the First Circuit Court of Appeals!
Last year, Reid belligerently moved to invoke cloture (end debate) and require a swift series of votes on most of the twenty-two Obama judicial nominees pending before the full Senate – playing a blame game on Republican opponents with claims of Obama obstructionism.
This opened a strategic opportunity for what rightly needs to be ongoing GOP confirmations warfare with Senate Democrats based upon Obama's serial violations of the Constitution, total disrespect for the separation and balance of powers, and flagrant abuse of the nominations process.
Constitutionalist Republicans are still irate that last year Obama installed his radical new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau chief and three members to the National Labor Relations Board in violation of Senate rules – and of the Constitution. "When he made a recess appointment when the Senate didn't consider itself in recess, that changed the game," stated freshman Sen. Mike Lee, Utah Republican.
Since then, Sen. Lee and Sen. Jim DeMint (alas, now retired) led the resistance against more White House nominees. "Ours is not a government of one. This was a dangerous precedent, and we need to oppose it," according to Sen. Lee, who vowed he will vote against all appointments in committee and on the floor until Obama rescinds his unconstitutional "recess" appointments, and stops making them.
Similarly, Sen. DeMint stated unequivocally in 2012: "President Obama has shown a complete disdain for the people's elected representatives and our duty to advise and consent on nominations," the South Carolina Republican told media. "Unless he revokes his unprecedented recess appointments that defied the constitutional role of Congress, I don't intend to support any of his judicial nominees this year."
Unfortunately, Senate Minority "Leader" Mitch McConnell – in typical RINO appeasement mode – since then has struck one after another infamous "deal" with Harry Reid, and we need to make SURE he does NOT roll over and play dead on judicial appointments!
Senate Republicans need to hear from YOU KNOW that you agree with the Constitutionalists, and you want the Senate to respond forcefully to Obama and Reid's abuse by defending our Constitution! Tell the Senate to BLOCK ALL Obama nominations until checks and balances between the co-equal branches of the federal government are restored.
There is NOTHING to gain and EVERYTHING to lose in capitulating to Reid, and continuing to follow McConnell's appeasement strategy and accommodation! When will the RINOs learn to stand and fight?
Despite Obama's UNCONSTITUTIONAL abuse of the nomination and appointment process, the Senate last year under McConnell's "leadership" compliantly approved seven of Obama's radical leftwing judges. Clearly, Obama sees "bi-partisanship" – as in ALL things – simply as a sign of weakness and an invitation to further abuse. There is no advantage, and no honor, in more GOP capitulation; WE MUST STAND STRONG AND COMPEL THE SENATE, WITH THEIR WEAKLING 'LEADER' MCCONNELL, TO PUT UP A FIGHT!
Sen. Lee went boldly out on point last year: "The president's unconstitutional abuse of his recess appointment power represents a threat to the institution… It's not partisan. It's not Democrat or Republican." He is correct – it's the Constitution!
On to Obama's first appalling nominee; William J. Kayatta, Jr. Kayatta is a Kagan tool, who our expert friends at Judicial Action Group characterize as "a nominee whose record has already unequivocally established him as a judicial elitist, and an advocate for an unaccountable judiciary."
Nominated to the United States Court of Appeals for the 1st Circuit (whose jurisdiction encompassingMaine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Puerto Rico), Kayatta is only the initial pick of Obama judicial nominees who are clearly outside the mainstream legal community – a situation which demands that their records be subject to strict scrutiny by the U.S. Senate rather than shown the deference which some suggest a consensus nominee might be granted.
Of course RINO Senator Olympia Snowe last year made the following comments in support of Kayatta: "This is a case of the President selecting a superbly-qualified nominee, who can and should attract strong, bipartisan support in the Judiciary Committee."
Her Mainer-Marxist twin, RINO Senator Susan Collins echoed: "Bill is eminently qualified to serve on the First Circuit Court of Appeals. He deserves overwhelming bipartisan support, and I look forward to introducing him to my colleagues as soon as possible."
The actual facts about Kayatta's unfitness are, to the contrary, manifest. Below is a brief summary of some of the most radical positions taken by Kayatta, including his shocking assertions that:
Judges' pay should be arbitrarily doubled over that of U.S. Senators, and judges' salaries should be tied to the salaries of foreign judges rather than U.S. elected office holders. Kayatta also believes and actively advocates that judges can legislatefrom the bench, and thereby control setting and raising their own salaries.
When Kayatta testified in support of Elena Kagan's confirmation to the Supreme Court, Senator Jeff Sessions rightly challenged Kayatta's – and the American Bar Association's – corrupt and partisan report, which rated her record "well qualified" despite her glaring failure to meet the minimum ABA qualifications. These include "at least twelve years' experience in the practice of law and substantial courtroom and trial experience as a lawyer or trial judge…" Under these standards Kagan was grossly unqualified; Kayatta had no plausible explanation from a judicial or law profession perspective for the discrepancy. Kagan's was overtly a partisan political ABA rating.
Kayatta helped author the ABA report and rating on Kagan that was submitted to the Senate; he also testified gushingly on her behalf in its presentation.
Kayatta's ABA report defended Kagan in barring military recruiters from Harvard, a legally unsupportable position which was universally rejected in mainstream judicial circles, and in fact, stuck down in the courts.
Finally, Kayatta is attributed on another report seeking to bar all judicial elections,based upon voter opposition to leftwing activist judges in Iowa. Kayatta's name appears as a member of the Board of Regents of the American College of Trial Lawyers on their published and disseminated "White Paper on Judicial Elections" (2011). The report cites several instances of voter outrage against judicial activism, including the 2010 Iowa judicial recall elections, as justification to abolish all judicial elections, presumably leaving the selection of judges to committees of unelected and unaccountable bar committees and lawyer "elites" such as Kayatta and the ABA.
This is perhaps the most anti-constitutional indicator on Kayatta of all his record. The White Paper states: "In the wake of these developments, three Supreme Court justices in Iowa were ousted in 2010 after interest groups, most from out of state, spent nearly a million dollars to unseat them owing to the court's unanimous ruling in a 2009 gay marriage case."
Does Kayatta affirm or disavow the radically anti-democratic conclusion of the White Paper in which he shares attribution? If he now disavows it, does he believe that judges are subject to any "checks and balances" by the American people as a voting electorate, or by the other branches of government? What if any remedy is appropriate, according to Kayatta, to rein in an out-of-control judiciary that is "amending" the Constitution by judicial fiat? Inquiring minds want to know – as voting majorities and aroused minorities of American citizens in any number of referenda, initiatives and candidate elections have made clear: American voters do not want any more anti-constitutional activist/advocates sitting as jurists in federal courts, wrongfully "legislating" from the bench as black robed tyrants!
But that is exactly what Obama and Harry Reid want! And to get it, Obama wants complete control of the appointments process.
Obama will elevate to the federal bench extremists who want what he wants.
And Mitch McConnell has shown NO WILLINGNESS to fight him!
BUT YOU CAN STILL STOP OBAMA'S NOMINEES TO THE FEDERAL COURT!
Just as you successfully turned back last year's Obama nomination of Kayatta and company – AND the nomination on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit of Caitlin Joan Halligan – the worst Obama judicial nominee since Elena Kagan – YOU CAN HALT OBAMA and HARRY REID FROM PACKING THE FEDERAL COURTS WITH RADICAL NOMINEES!
SUPPORT THE SENATE CONSTITUTIONALISTS!
DEMAND THAT SENATE REPUBLICANS FIGHT OBAMA'S RADICAL COURT APPOINTMENTS!
Unless YOU act, Kayatta will win a lifetime seat on the 1st Circuit Court, and Obama will be rewarded and emboldened to abuse the Constitution and pack the federal courts with radicals!
The Circuits are the only courts other than the U.S. Supreme Court that can actually HALTsome of the Obama Administration's unconstitutional practices and abuses of power.
It is the Circuit Courts which hear our cases against federal over-reach and abuse of power, brought to challenge extremist Administration policies Obama has enacted by fiat when he can't get Congress to pass his socialist agenda, or seeking to reverse unjust federal government enforcement actions inflicted upon targeted states, citizens and businesses that are obstructing the Obama leviathan. These federal court appointments MATTER!
IF THE SENATE GOP WILL STAND FIRM, OBAMA AND REID WILL LOSE SOME OF THESE NOMINATIONS FIGHTS, AND WE WILL SEND A VITAL MESSAGE OF LOYALTY TO THE CONSTITUTION TO OBAMA!
While many Republican senators can be counted on to vote against Reid and Kayatta, there are those in the GOP ranks who love to look "bi-partisan" and are notoriously unreliable:John Kyl (AZ), Lamar Alexander (TN), Susan Collins (ME), Lindsey Graham (SC), Mark Kirk (IL), John McCain (AZ), Lisa Murkowski (AK), Olympia Snowe (ME), and John Thune (SD).
Mitch McConnell thinks his "deals" and his ambition to be Senate Majority Leader are more important than saving the republic from Obama's destruction of the Constitution!
The Democrat leadership will be cracking the whip hard in Senate Judiciary Committee votes out of the gate in the 113th Congress, and the larger Senate confirmation votes the Democrat majority seeks to force, but some "moderate" Democrats and some RINOs concerned about the 2014 elections might think twice – IF THE TRUTH ABOUT THESE NOMINEES GETS OUT TO WE THE PEOPLE, AND IF THEY HEAR BACK FROM ENOUGH OF US.
Kayatta's views as a committed, hard-left judicial activist who in fact legislates from the bench are pervasive – and are equally troubling with his radical partisanship and judicial anti-democratic, anti-accountability advocacy.
And it is not just William Kayatta who will be coming up for a Senate vote! Other radical Obama nominees are also proposed for the federal bench – and ALL NEED TO BE VOTED NAY WITH A THREAT OF FILIBUSTER!
WE MUST PRESERVE THE CHECKS AND BALANCES BETWEEN THE BRANCHES OF FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, AND WE MUST DEFEND THE INTEGRITY OF THE FEDERAL COURTS!
Make Obama and Harry Reid fight for every inch of damage they inflict on our glorious America!
Keep Faith,
