IS THE TIDE TURNING AGAINST KAGAN?

Readers - from time to time I will print an ad for an organization that has pertinent information for you.  I am never going to ask you to donate your hard earned money to anyone, anytime.  This however, is crucial information to send to your elected officials; a tool for you.


Liberty Counsel is joining other pro-family groups in
calling for a FULL INVESTIGATION of events that took place
during Elena Kagan's tenure in the Clinton White House.
Evidence has surfaced indicating that she manipulated expert
testimony in order to overturn laws banning partial-birth
abortion.

We are also calling for a review of discrepancies in her
testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, especially
concerning her notes to President Clinton giving political
advice about abortion cases being considered by the federal
judiciary.

We believe this investigation needs to be to
be completed BEFORE the full Senate takes up
Kagan's nomination. If the pro-Kagan camp
doesn't accept this course of action, a
filibuster should be enacted until the
investigation is complete and all relevant
documents receive proper review!

In light of these discoveries and the typical Obama/Reid/Pelosi
pressure to rush to judgment, I am asking every Liberty
Counsel team member to press Senators to examine every
sliver of evidence that may weigh upon Kagan's qualification
for a life-time appointment to the Supreme Court.

Also, we have included new language in our
faxes calling for an investigation and review
of all pertinent documents, including Kagan's
writings. The fax barrage will begin when
the Senate reconvenes on Monday, July 12th.

Together, we must tell the Senators to withhold their votes
until all the evidence on Kagan's character and judicial
philosophy has been considered. We must not allow them to
hurriedly rubber stamp Elena Kagan's confirmation!

Please go here to initiate your faxes to your two Senators
and other key Senators:

++How Kagan rewrote expert testimony to promote abortion.

Elena Kagan's dual role in manipulating findings coupled with
pro-abortion lobbying efforts while working in the Clinton
Administration was exposed in hearings last week.

First, according to Shannen W. Coffin, the deputy assistant
attorney general in charge of the defense of the federal
Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act during the Bush
Administration, in 1997 Kagan essentially re-wrote a
key section of the American College of Obstetricians
and Gynecologists' (ACOG) position on partial-birth
abortion.

It appears that Kagan intentionally and purposefully
manipulated the ACOG finding, inverting the meaning of
the initially released statements to mirror her own
ideology! Kagan's wording was incorporated into the
final document and was later submitted as evidence from
ACOG to the Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court even cited the ACOG document -
the same one Kagan manipulated - when striking
down the Nebraska partial-birth abortion ban.

In another blockbuster development just before the
congressional recess, Americans United for Life (AUL)
released evidence that Kagan may have lobbied the American
Medical Association to change its position on partial-birth
abortion as well!

These shocking revelations clearly demonstrate
how Kagan's political activism affects her
mindset and diminishes her capacity for impartial
judgment.

++Kagan's radical political activism should disqualify her.

Kagan's activities in the Clinton Administration should not
be characterized as merely the actions of an ambitious young
attorney whose zeal temporarily overrode her better judgment.
Rather, they appear to be calculated attempts to manipulate
testimony by a seasoned lawyer who was at that time serving
as counsel to the President of the United States.

If Kagan purposefully manipulated expert findings, then
that was at least a disrespectful slap at the very Court
upon which she aspires to serve. Some have said that her
manipulation of expert testimony approaches the crime of
evidence tampering - and good reason to call for Kagan's
removal from consideration.

The evidence shows more than ever that Elena
Kagan does NOT have the ability to separate
her quest to implement a radical personal agenda
from the sacred duty of impartially judging
as a Supreme Court Justice.

++Stand with us in opposition to Elena Kagan's confirmation.

Last week, Liberty Counsel supporters generated tens of
thousands of citizen contacts to our United States Senators.
That is phenomenal! We are sending a resounding message
to the Senate with our fax barrage, but now we need to
redouble our efforts.

"OPPOSE THE CONFIRMATION OF ELENA KAGAN!"

There is STILL TIME for all of us to make our
voices heard by those on the Senate Judiciary
Committee, the Senators uncommitted in their
votes, and your own two Senators. This is
especially true now that Elena Kagan has
waffled during testimony about her personal
notes to President Clinton on partial-birth
abortion.

I'm asking every member of the Liberty Counsel team to press
hard on targeted Senators with this call to action! Your
faxes will be delivered along with thousands of other
citizens' faxes as part of our massive FAX BARRAGE that
resumes on July 12th.

Go here to schedule your targeted faxes:

http://www.libertyaction.org/r.asp?U=29609&CID=312&RID=21028281

If you prefer, we always encourage you to send your own
faxes. We have provided all the information you need to
reach Senators here:

++Senators are increasingly uneasy about Kagan.

Even during a recess week, many Senators have already
declared their "no" vote on Elena Kagan's nomination. But
the process will have its own inertia. Within days of
reconvening, the Senate Judiciary Committee is expected
to vote on Kagan's nomination and then send their
recommendation to the full Senate.

But contrary to the mainstream media "spin,"
Kagan's confirmation is far from being a
"done deal." We can still stop this dangerous
nominee from being approved!

Elena Kagan's long history of strategic activism
for radical causes is showing us that the anti-faith,
anti-family, anti-freedom Left has a well defined
agenda, is deeply committed to that agenda, and
will stop at nothing to impose their agenda on
the rest of us!

And consider this: If Elena Kagan is seated, she would be
in position to review the lawsuits against ObamaCare when
they make their way to the High Court!

BARRY, the latest revelation regarding the
manipulation of a scientific finding for political effect -
to promote the hideous partial-birth abortion procedure,
no less - may be the evidence that exposes the true Elena Kagan.

As we have maintained all along, Elena Kagan
is a political operative who would use a seat
on the Supreme Court to advance a radical agenda.

Please, increase your personal impact on this vital issue by
taking advantage of our FAX BARRAGE and telling your Senators
and other key Senators to deny confirmation to Elena Kagan.

We have updated the suggested content of your faxes to
reflect the new facts that have come forth. We will resume
our FAX BARRAGE, hopefully with your voice included, on
Monday morning, July 12th, when the Senate comes back
into session.

As I mentioned, we have provided sample letters for you -
all you have to do is click on the link below to participate
in our powerful FAX BARRAGE of the United States Senate.

Kagan's legal philosophy and other facts about her qualifications:

Thank you and God bless you!

P.S. Evidence of the manipulation of organizations and data
to advance a personal political philosophy demands thorough
investigation. The Senate must carefully consider all the
evidence rather than rushing to confirm any nominee with a
questionable history.

We must do everything we can to stand against Elena Kagan's
confirmation! Go here to access your free White Paper and
