“This isn’t about me wanting to take your kids, and this isn’t even about whether children are property. This is about whether we as a society, expressing our collective will through our public institutions, including our government, have a right to impinge on individual freedoms in order to advance a common good....

That is... as long as no one messes with their rights.

“If the personal freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution inhibit the government’s ability to govern the people, we should look to limit those guarantees.”
Bill Clinton

“The purpose of government is to reign in the rights of the people.”

Bill Clinton

I don’t know where they get it but they all seem to believe it.

“What care I for the common good of a society that has marginalized me.”

The home page of Canada Free Press has your answer: “Without America there is no free world”.

Remember the commies own Hollyweirdf, papers nadthe rst of the ‘dead tree media’.

We have the Internet and talk radio.

My bet is on us.

Does anyone find it ironic that the societal failures that she thinks need fixing are in part the result of the same grand and glorious plans started by her kind in the 60s.

We are all suffering from "the cure" and we don't even know it.

Who knows. Maybe it is part of a plan and they think that we are too stupid to figure it out or maybe they are too stupid to realize it themselves.

oh, please! She knows EXACTLY what she is saying, and she believes every word of it

Not only does she know and mean what she says, but she says it to provoke anger on the Right. In fact, much is being done by Obama and his flying monkeys since the start of his latest term to provoke some sort of "event" perpetrated by someone identifiably right-leaning. None of this is being done in a vacuum. The Marxists have the full weight and might of the FedGov at their disposal, and would very much like to use it.

As if the notion of society and the common good is some kind of new discovery. The collective is old technology; it’s individual freedom that’s new, relatively speaking. The whole premise of American society is that honoring the individual promotes the general welfare. That’s the paradox and the genius of our founding. But the left is hellbent on screwing it up.

“We’ve decided to search your home without a search warrant ‘for the common good’, M’am.”

Let’s put things in that context and try it on for size...

Ma’am, I do not want your common good. I do not want any part of it.

Keep it. Keep your nose out of my life. Your opinion was never asked, you are not invited.

She’s just another whore trying to get other people to take care of her offspring since we are paying for them and that is not enough.
