The just published final thoughts of conservative legal giant Robert Bork, blocked from the Supreme Court in a Democratic witch hunt, reveal his deep concerns that the high court has taken a turn for the worse and is a threat to American freedom

"We are now being ruled in some of our most crucial cultural and moral issues by judges who have acquired the power, but certainly not the authority, to take those decisions out of our hands," he frets in "Saving Justice," published after the longtime Constitutional authority died last December.

"With each issue it takes out of the hands of the people in order to please the elites, the Supreme Court moves from being what my friend Alex Bickel called 'the least dangerous branch of government,' to a place where it can lay fair claim to being the most dangerous," wrote Bork.

His book focuses mostly on his days during the Nixon administration, but he ends Saving Justice with the blast at the nation's judges and the Supreme Court.

"There is good reason to believe that this authoritarianism has become an inherent characteristic of most judges every since the time they realized the full extent of their power and their relative invulnerability. In that capacity, they continue their attack on the basic structure of the law by filling the categories of law with politics. Originalism provides hope that the constitutional structure of our country will be maintained," he concluded.
