1.0 out of 5 stars
Typical Court-Bashing from Self-Styled Constitutional Scholars, October 16, 2008
This review is from: The End of Democracy?: The Judical Usurpation of Politics (Hardcover)
Frankly, there's nothing much here that Colson, Bork, Dobson, Arkes, and the like haven't said before or wouldn't be happy to tell you again. More interesting (although too disjointed to be of much value) are the responses that this book includes from those who were not active participants in the 1996 First Things Symposium that this book encompasses.
If you've read one screed suggesting that the Supreme Court's opinions in Casey and Romer authorize Christians to rebel against the government, then you've read them all. Dobson and Colson (one a non-lawyer, the other disbarred) are particularly obnoxious in this context, as they are both out of their depth and eager to replace our nation's history and historic Christian doctrine with a distinctly un-edifying polemic against the courts.
