power corrupts.
Good thing it’s not:
no justice, no pee
Just think how long you’d have to hold it.
They should have cut John’s head off, or better yet beaten him to death with his crown.
The idea of limited government in the British Isles arose in part, from the Nordic concept of the “Thing”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thing_(assembly)
“A thing (Old Norse, Old English and Icelandic; þing; German, Dutch; ding; modern Scandinavian languages; ting) was the governing assembly of a Germanic society, made up of the free people of the community presided over by lawspeakers. Its meeting-place was called a thingstead.
The Anglo-Saxon folkmoot or folkmote (Old English — “folk meeting”, modern Norwegian; folkemøte) was analogous, the forerunner to the witenagemot and in some respects the precursor of the modern Parliament of the United Kingdom.
Today the term lives on in the English term husting, in the official names of national legislatures and political and judicial institutions of Nordic countries and, in the Manx form tyn, as a term for the three legislative bodies on the Isle of Man.”
Other origins included the Roman Senate, dating to ancient Rome.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Senate
“The senate was a political institution in the ancient Roman kingdom. The word senate derives from the Latin word senex, which means “old man”; the word thus means “assembly of elders”. The prehistoric Indo-Europeans who settled Italy in the centuries before the legendary founding of Rome in 753 BC[1] were structured into tribal communities,[2] and these communities often included an aristocratic board of tribal elders.[3]”
Queen Hillary wants to let everybody vote, whereas the ancients had the wisdom to limit voting to informed, landed elders and wisemen. As recently as the Mafia, they called them “wiseguys.”
DONT BLAME OBAMA AND HITLERY..... blame congress....

What good would that do? You think the rats would go along with it? Keep on dreaming. I rather he be sent to prison at Fort Leavenworth
Probably a mistype and should be June 15. Guess the editor did not catch it as it not a misspelling
I am sure that was quite interesting
In a sense, he's right. Legislative, executive, judicial -- which of these even pretends to adhere to the Constitution anymore? And the citizens? How many view the Constitution as merely a guideline, if even that, to be circumvented should a situation require government intervention?
Informative article. Knew about it, and I didn’t know he wanted to get rid of it. Sound like our king and queen.
Sure does. It looks like as if history does indeed repeat itself
When the people of the Middle East have such an event regarding many of their self-appointed rulers you can expect that religious freedom from a government dictated to by the ministers of a religion in many Middle East nations may not be too many centuries off. Of course that achievement took how long in western nations after the Magna Carta?
