Obama Republicans, Doug Kmiec, and St Thomas More

It is a shame that Doug Kmiec (Former Romeny supporter) now Obama Catholic hack has sold his soul. I saw this over at The Corner:

Dishonesty [Mark R. Levin]

This is pathetic. Doug Kmiec, I remember when you came to my office at the Justice Department — where at the time I was serving as associate deputy attorney general under Attorney General Ed Meese — seeking an appointment. I remember processing your papers and sending them to the White House for political clearance. I remember advocating for your appointment to a deputy assistant attorney general post in the Office of Legal Counsel and securing your appointment. And from there, Doug, you became the acting assistant attorney general for the Office of Legal Counsel in the last days of the Reagan administration. You have now used your resume to give cover to perhaps the most radical and unqualified person to be nominated for president. And your arguments on Obama's behalf have been nothing short of dishonest. I am extremely disappointed in you. But my guess is you've earned a judgeship should Obama win the presidency. Frankly, sometimes you think you know somebody when, in fact, you don't.

How true. Kmiec has used his postion to gain access to the Catholic press and has transformed fully into a person that holds position 180 degree's opposite to what he held just a year ago!!!

Kmiec makes a big production about Judges that did to ground their view of protecting life in the Declaration of Independence. Does he really think Judges like Justice Breyer and Justice Souter are going to do that!!

Not only has he misrepresented his Faith he now appears to turning back on his legal and judicial view of the world. Well we have seen that happen for months.

Hopefully come tuesday his efforts will not be rewarded!!

What would Thomas More do?
The battle between ambition and principle is an ancient one. In the Robert Bolt play, A Man for All Seasons (the film adaptation of which won the Best Picture Oscar in 1966), More is finally betrayed by his one-time friend and protége, Richard Rich. After Rich offers his perjured testimony at the trial, More notices that he is wearing a chain of office, and inquires of Rich what it signifies. Informed that Rich is now Attorney General for Wales, More delivers a devastating blow: "Richard, the Lord said that it did not profit a man to gain the whole world if he lost his soul. The whole world, Richard ...but for Wales?"

Enjoy the Judgeship Mr Kmiec, But If I am going to fight like hell to try to prevent it on Tuesday.
