Dr. Alan Keyes and Dr. Rick Scarborough, president of Vision America,
are scheduled to speak Oct. 21 at a Tri-States Ten Commandments Rally in
Blairsville, Georgia.
The rally will be held at the Union County High School Football Stadium in
Blairsville. Starting time is 7:00 p.m. ET.
The event is part in a series of rallies to promote religious liberty and
protest federal interference with the right of states to publicly
acknowledge God.
In previous rallies, Dr. Keyes has chastised the federal judiciary for its
"dictatorial" usurpation of states' rights, and predicted further
weakening of our nation's republic if judges are not held accountable for
ignoring the Constitution.
"There can be nothing graver than the crisis that they have bought
on this land!", Dr. Keyes said of the federal courts at a rally earlier in
the month in
Lufkin, Texas.
Keyes believes the Founders provided a solution to the "tyranny of the
courts." That solution, he argues, is for Congress to regulate the federal
judiciary under the authority of Article 3, Section 2, of the
Constitution, which provides for Congressional oversight of the courts'
appellate function.
Additionally, Keyes believes that the courts should be required by
Congress to observe the actual language of the First and Tenth
Amendments--the "conjoint effect" of which would protect the right of
the people, through their elected representatives, to officially
acknowledge God at the state level, free of federal intrusion.
The Blairsville event is being held in connection with a suit in U.S.
District Court in Gainesville against the Habersham County Commission for
displaying the Ten Commandments at the county courthouse and county jail.
