America will find out how far to the left its federal judiciary has gone when the United States Supreme Court rules on whether or not a cross memorializing World War I veterans can remain on federal property.  Today, the nation'a top court considered a case, Salazar vs. Buono, commonly called the "Mojave Desert Cross" case.   

A federal district court ruled that the 5 feet by 8 feet cross in the Mojave Desert had to be removed.  The left-wing judge found that the primary effect of the cross was to advance religion, in violation of the Constitution's Establishment Clause.  The Republican-controlled Congress in 2004 enacted legislation which directed the Interior Department, now under Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar, to transfer an acre of land including the cross honoring World War I veterans to the Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) in exchange for land equal in value.   

The most out-of-touch Circuit Court of Appeals in the land, the 9th Circuit in San Francisco  --  which has most of its major decisions overruled by the U.S. Supreme Court  --  permanently stopped the government from implementing the Act of Congress.  The cross is now disgracefully covered in a plywood box, as ordered by the unelected judicial tyrants.   

Will the crosses at the American Cemetery above the Normandy beaches in France (on American territory) have to be removed if the Supreme Court rules that the Mojave Desert Cross has to be removed?  There are thousands of crosses above the graves of those killed on the beaches below on D-Day 1944 or shortly thereafter on their way to defeating the Nazis.  Indeed, there are thousands of other memorials around the United States which will have to be destroyed if the Supreme Court makes such a ruling.   

"The Washington Times" reported after the decision that "The Supreme Court appeared divided between conservatives and liberals Wednesday over whether a cross on federal park land in California violates the U.S. Constitution.

"Several conservative justices seemed open to the Obama administration's argument that Congress' decision to transfer to private ownership the land on which the cross sits in the Mojave National Preserve should take care of any constitutional questions.  'Isn't that a sensible interpretation' of a court order prohibiting the cross's display on government property? Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. asked.

"The liberal justices, on the other hand, indicated that they agree with a federal appeals court that ruled that the land transfer was a sort of end run around the a constitutional amendment prohibiting government endorsement of religion.  Justice Anthony M. Kennedy, often the decisive vote in these cases, said nothing to tip his hand."
