Ruminations is a synopsis of developmental belief that began in my 20s and has grown exponentially to date. I am a confessed liberal/progressive and firm believer in my required oath on admission to the State Bar of Georgia i.e. to uphold honor and defend the Constitutions of the United States and of the State of Georgia so help me God. That embraces the proscriptions of our forefathers in creating the Republic known as the United States of America. Thus any attempt by anyone politician or otherwise to rebut the proscriptions and/or encourage others to do so is a crime punishable in the criminal courts of this nation. I am not aware of its implementation in my lifetime and I condemn the failure. It inspires my writing and validates my professional oath.
