The Establishment Clause

Sylvia Bokor | 6 July 2011

No Friend of Freedom: Obama’s Supreme Court Nominee, Elena Kagan

Edward Cline | 18 May 2010
Kagan’s positions are, if not overtly socialist, then pragmatically statist. She is for disarming Americans, she is for “selective” censorship, and she worked with the Clinton administration on the first round of attempted socialized medicine. She is no friend of freedom.
