I love the old parchment, and believe in those words as much as you do, so you can cut the guilt trip stuff. Unfortunately that's not what's law in this country and unless you're really delusional, you know what I'm saying is true.

I'm not trying to "guilt trip" you. If you want to follow the libs down the path of destroying our founding charter, go right ahead.

I don't care how much the left disregards and tramples on our Constitution. They can even write and sign laws that haven't got a tether to it, but I reserve the right to defiantly disagree, and to steadfastly demand a return to the rule of law and a healthy respect for, and adherence to, our Constitution.

Seems to me you're justifying throwing away the fundamental precepts which make us conservatives, Lake. I'd rather stand and face our enemies man to man in a life or death contest, than abandon what I believe in.

Actually you appear to be doing just that.

There are plenty of good conservative legal minds that disagree with the take of the birthers, yet you are being dismissive of them rather than looking at what they are saying. For you to sneer at the vast majority of conservative opinion, then presume that means I'm someone willing to trample on the constitution makes your argument ring hollow.

There was legitimate argument against the birthers to begin with, legitimate arguments that show the birther nonsense is not the constitutional way, yet you seem to be choosing to go all guilt trip instead of realizing you may not be correct in presuming the birthers are the ones who might be seeing this wrong.

Not to mention that funny thing called "precedent". If they had an argument, it's gone. For anyone to presume one of our finest candidates should follow one (somewhat crazy) interpretation of the Constitution by the stormfronters and libs that inhabit them, of all groups, is a bit unsettling. Sorry, that's where the birther nonsense resides, the stormfronters.

Like I once said, some groups of conservative "purists" are not often so pure and are often just as stupid as the GOPE. For us to follow one crazy group and take out one of our best future candidates is more than unsettling. Look at the responses to post # 42. It's an example of why we lose all the time now. The circulare firing squad will get them all, including Cruz and Palin.
