REFLECTIONS ON ABRAHAM LINCOLN

In his address in lyceum Illinois Abraham Lincoln put forth a challenge to Americans to put all of their trust and faith in the law and to commit their lives to upholding the law at all costs.
Flash forward and we have a country in economic turmoil and torn apart by political ideology.
The rule of law has been overrun by the rule of the mob. Take from the rich and give to the poor that is the mantra of the democratic party. Obama wants to put a Supreme court Justice on the bench that votes his conscious regardless of the law? A Justice that uses his personal values to make judgements of the law. The problem with that is sometimes the law leans towards the unjust side. Sometimes the law has broader implications and people get caught on the wrong side of justice. For Example Roe vs Wade million of people are caught on the wrong side of that law every day when I say millions of people i mean the unborn people.

The rule of law, a noble statement by Lincoln, but what else could we expect he was a republican.
Now that we have a Democrat for president a democrat majority in the congress the rule of law is now entwined with mob rule.
