Blame it on JBloom, he encouraged me.  Here is a selection from my reply brief in the case of Brown v. Bowman, now pending oral argument before the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals.  All of the briefing in the case is accessable at www.archangelinstitute.org  (look for gavel picture)

I.                  Oh how they love Big Brother:  Defendants’ plea for absolute immunity threatens to bring on tyranny  

The conflict at bar is a photo-shopped negative of the bar admission cases fought out on the docket of the United States Supreme Court between the late 50’s and early 70’s  Most of those cases involved bar applicants “who were denied admission to practice law solely because they refused to answer questions about their personal beliefs or their affiliations with organizations that advocate certain ideas about government” Baird v. State Bar of Ariz., 401 U.S. 1,2 (1971)  The Plaintiff, on the other hand, was denied admission after he fully answered numerous questions probing his personal beliefs about the relationship between governance and Divine Providence.

Ransom here.

Next week I argue my own case before the esteemed Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago. Yes, I know,”fool for a client.” I’ll take that chance, but it gets worse. I am not only the plaintiff-on-appeal and the attorney, I am also Exhibit A. Which, at least in my tortured logic, is why it makes perfect sense for this fool to be both client and attorney.

I am Exhibit A because my case asks the federal court if the Indiana Supreme Court’s Judges and Lawyers Assistance Program (JLAP) violated the United States Constitution when that august committee refused to recommend me for a law license. I am Exhibit A because JLAP’s first hired gun labeled me “almost” bipolar due to my religious zeal. I am Exhibit A because JLAP’s second hired gun labeled me “personality disordered, not otherwise specified” due, primarily, to my views regarding the termination of nascent human life. (That is, abortion). That second JLAP hired gun rejected the “bipolar” label. I am Exhibit A because JLAP’s third hired gun found me to suffer from no mental illness at all. (But his report was misreported to the Indiana Supreme Court by JLAP to support the finding of the second hired gun.)

I am Exhibit A because Fort Wayne’s own Dr. Bryan Flueckiger and Dr. Thomas Sass spent hours with me and reported to JLAP that I suffered from Read the rest of this entry »

I walked into my classroom this week, midway through the semester, and see 4 students. That’s all. Out of 24 who were signed up and 23 who showed up the first week, all I had in front of me were these students. These are all who I will see the rest of the semester.

No, it’s not that so many realized they failed-in fact not one student of mine left failing. Was the problem me? No, not by the appearance of every classroom I peered into and those I continue to gauge. No, not by the comments made by other professors. “It’s just what happens at this point,” stated a colleague.

Amazing. An apartment complex in Albany, Oregon has banned the U.S. flag. Remove it, or be evicted.

Mel Simon, owner of mall properties around the country and developer of Indianapolis’ Circle Centre Mall apparently doesn’t like conservatives, or free speech. Loren Spivack operates a kiosk called Free Market Warrior in Concord Mills Mall located in Concord, NC. Simon has decided to kick him and his business out of the mall because items he sells are not “neutral” enough.

A new Gallup Poll finds a booming increase in the number of Americans that think the democratic party is too liberal. Who’da thunk?

PRINCETON, NJ — A Gallup Poll finds a statistically significant increase since last year in the percentage of Americans who describe the Democratic Party’s views as being “too liberal,” from 39% to 46%. This is the largest percentage saying so since November 1994, after the party’s losses in that year’s midterm elections.

[...]

Notably, there has been no change over the past year in the percentage of Americans who say the Republican Party is “too conservative,” though the 43% who say the party leans too far to the right matches the historical high mark set last year.
