I don’t think there are any jewels and gold in Antarctica.

So, has anybody floated an amendment to ship the liberals off to Antartica? How do we know there's no support for it?

I think this needs careful study.

Now, if conservatives were a bit more flexible with their view of the Constitution, they would say things like, “Well, we have to remember it’s a living document, and the Founding Fathers hadn’t even thought of the threat of hippies running around free when they wrote it.” And then they’d look to the Commerce Clause and say, “Well, keeping liberals from meddling in America and forcing them do something useful like mining sure would help the economy, so it’s within the government’s power.” And then it’d just be a manner of scheduling all the boats to get liberals to Antarctica.
This might work if it weren't for those pesky 13th and 14th Amendments. This guy might try reading the Constitution himself.

Liberals hate the Constitution the way young kids hate having mom and dad around all the time. Because mom and dad tell them to stop running around the house, don’t put your elbows on the table, sit up straight and eat your vegetables. Well, liberals don’t like it when conservatives are always reminding them that the Constitution DOES NOT say the government is supposed to give you free health care, a college education, a home, or that a woman has a right to an abortion.

Awesome article, however, I do have a point of contention with some of the material. Liberals have no problem with the “whole democracy thing”, they have a problem with the whole REPUBLIC thing. They WANT to redefine our form of government as a representative democracy where “elected” (sarcasm intended) representatives of the people (because they know best) hold the governing power in lieu of a republic in which the people retain supreme control over the government. The reason liberals hate the constitution is because it ensures that the rights of the individual are not to be eclipsed by those of the collective. Marxists are collectivists by nature and hate anything that ensures individual rights, private ownership of property and or the transference of private wealth from one generation to another i.e. the constitution. Any time you debate our founding and the constitution with lefty marxists, you have already lost if you do not differentiate between our founding as a republic instead of a democracy. There is a HUGE difference. On a side note, I got a good laugh imagining the ghost of George Washington punching hippies. Sounds like fun! =D
