Open tyranny is at our doorstep. The tyrant will hopefully be gone in 2017, but the horrible precedents, the tyranny will remain.

This past week, and with little notice, Scotus rewrote the Recess Appointments Clause of the Constitution. It was done without the hassle of Article V. Oh.

Every executive branch agency stands ready to serve the democrat party.

Given all this and certainly much more, we are supposed to fear a meeting of state delegates in accordance with the Constitution?

There is nothing to lose and everything to gain from an Article V convention to propose amendments.

Article V is the last hope of a dying republic.

Well, there are more options - more severe, but necessary in the cause of freedom, which is worth everything, IMO. Let's hope for a successful outcome of a Convention of States.

But if that doesn't work, states can begin nullifying unconstitutional federal acts and rulings and start taking steps toward financial independence from the feds.

"Creeping tyranny"? Let's counter with "creeping independence and liberty."
