"KentuckyWomen has been the recipient of a lof heat simply for espousing the desire to have our Conservative leaders respect and uphold the Constitution."

If it were that simple I would defend her myself...but it isnt...

1. "Give 'em time my friend. They're working diligently to overturn posse comitatus even as we speak. Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war!! I just hope that we're not the ones that end up being dog meat!!"

2. "If Krintoon and his administration had tried to get away with only half of the unconstitutional, liberty erasing measures passed under Bush, the self-described conservatives in this Country would be up in arms."

3. "One is becoming a monarchy while the other is a dictatorship."

4. "Just between the Patriot Act and the No Child Left Behind Act, both of which Pres. Bush has supported wholeheartedly, we will no longer recognize this Country with 10 years (if it takes that long) and all this never-ending "war" business is nothing more than to keep the sheople feeling fearful and crying to big-brother to keep them safe. Frankly, I'm getting pretty darned sick of it. I won't even begin to get into the who knew what and when regarding 9/11 here."

5. "It wasn't freedom that was attacked (at least not by any 'terrorists'), it was the policians interventionist, empire building policies that were 'attacked'"

That is much more than simply wanting the President to honor the Constitution.

Where have I advocated anything other than that they should be working WITHIN the bounds laid forth in the Constitution? Sure, some people may not WANT to face up to the facts of why what happened, happened. That's not my problem (directly, anyway). If our Country is to be at 'war' with ANYONE, I want it to be done according to the guidelines set forth in our Founding documents. So far, this hasn't been done and everyone in DC, with a notable couple of exceptions, is perfoming an end-run around the US Constitution that they SWORE to defend. We are NOT 'AT WAR' as only Congress has that power and they declined. I'm sick of judges legislating from the bench and I'm sick of lawyers and other subversives deciding that our Constitution was written on rubber instead of paper. The moral tenats of our Founding have NOT changed, only people's perceptions of same. Are you perhaps acquainted with the episode involving the Barbary Pirates and our DECLARED war on same?
