By Collin Pruett - Posted at American Reformer: On taking the political initiative The Supreme Court, like a place-kicker in football, serves a function in public life that Americans ignore until, in the most crucial of situations, its performance makes or breaks outcomes. The Courts of the 1960s and 1970s certainly scored wins for the left. In an unprecedented series of legal assaults against the ramparts of the American Constitutional tradition, the Court eradicated “ Almighty God ” from education with Engel v. Vitale , conjured up a vague right to privacy with Griswold v. Connecticut , and legalized abortion with Roe v. Wade . These headliners, combined with a broader left-wing legal and legislative blitz, ripped down the cultural scaffolding of the United States. Conservatives of the era rightly perceived that the Court would not only alter the Constitutional order, but also the trajectory of our civilization. Looking back, it’s hard to dispute that the alarm was unjustified. Birt
