Should we be surprised or not? Judge Donald Molloy ruled in the case citing separation of powers when the U.S. Congress attached a rider to the Federal Budget Bill that attempted to remove gray wolves from the Endangered Species Act list. The judge upheld the action of Congress.

Recently I wrote that Judge Molloy would rule against the rider as it would fit his agenda to save wolves, as all previous actions, regardless of the United States Constitution, science or the administration of the Endangered Species Act, have been about saving wolves.

But now the somewhat shadowy images are becoming better defined, the outer lines sharper and more precise. Molloy’s intent is the destruction of the United States Constitution.

Molloy says:

The way in which Congress acted in trying to achieve a debatable policy change by attaching a rider to the Department of Defense and Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act of 2011 is a tearing away, an undermining and a disrespect for the fundamental idea of the rule of law.

This statement is true as far as how I see things. As much as I want to put an end to this insane debate on wolves, destruction of the Constitution and a continued blurring of powers separation is not the way to get the job done. Molloy further states that past rulings by the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals requires him to interpret the rider as not violating the separation of powers.

So it becomes clear here that Judge Molloy, even though he acknowledges that he understands what the “rule of law” is, feels forced to uphold this unconstitutional act because of previous rulings. Are we now at a point in our judicial system where two wrongs make a right?

His Honor repeats again:

In my view, the 9th Circuit’s deference to Congress threatens the Separation of Powers; nonspecific magic words should not sweep aside constitutional concerns.

Then, if Judge Molloy actually believes this statement, why did he rule against the U.S. Constitution? It’s because he is a progressive. Progressives apply the Constitution as it becomes necessary to promote their agendas and disregard it when it fails their narrative. From the mouth of one of the biggest progressives this country ever knew, Franklin Roosevelt said this:

The United States Constitution has proved itself the most marvelously elastic compilation of rules of government ever written.

This statement is seen by many as a wonderful thing. Only a person with a true understanding of what drove Roosevelt and an appreciation and respect for the United States Constitution would know these words are not a good thing. The Constitution was the guiding masterpiece for America. Claiming it is “marvelously elastic” means that it can be twisted to mean whatever we want it to.

How wrong is it that a judge would place precedence that he seems to state is contrary to the Constitution, over that document?

While most people focused on Judge Molloy’s activism to “save wolves”, few had a notion that his real goal is the destruction of the Constitution. It is now clear. We shall soon find out just how deeply this destruction runs as there is certain to be an appeal. An appeal to the very court that Judge Molloy claims forced his hand.

The wolf lovers are upset. Ironically, they have much of themselves to blame for the mess they find themselves in. By their own hands they have worked to destroy the rule of law in this country, including but not limited to the manipulation and abuse of the Endangered Species Act, intentional piling on of petitions and lawsuits to overwhelm the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Department of Justice, along with their own progressive attitudes.

A reader of this blog left a comment in regard to Molloy’s ruling last night.

The lunatics are sure to be going insane, but they have no one to blame but themselves, for decades they have done everything they could possibly do to destroy the COTUS [Constitution of the United States], and now they have their panties in a bind because they were on the side of the COTUS this time. These idiots are the ones who have created these precedence through their unconstitutional laws, suits and rulings. I guess the old saying “live by the sword, die by the sword” comes to mind.

Ironic isn’t it really. But let’s put aside the debate on wolves long enough to understand what is going on right before our very eyes. Wolves be damned, elk by damned, hunting be damned! What is there of this country once the Constitution is finished? Progressives think they would like nothing more than a rewrite or just the elimination of that document. Then what? Sodom and Gomorrah?

For those fighting the battle to control wolves, please don’t consider this a great victory.
