The Democrats are loathe to admit that Hillary Clinton is seriously damaged goods. She makes the John Kerry of 2004 look like a good candidate in comparison.

Oh, we are nowhere NEAR the “limits” of conservatism. The limits are on GOVERNMENT, not on the will of the people here.

All governmental entities, without an active and continuing check upon their exercise of power, eventually become tyrannical in nature. That is why this nation was conceived as a constitutional representative republic, with power divided between executive, legislative and judicial branches, each expected to act as a check on the excesses of the other two.

The will of the people has been thwarted several times already, by the failure of one or another of the three branches of government to take their responsibilities of acting as a check on the other two seriously. The fall of the House of Bourbon under Louis XVI of France should be instructive as to what happens to an unresponsive and remote government entity when too much power is gathered and handed to incompetent authority.

And boy, do we ever have a lot of power gathered in the hands of the incompetents.
