I’ll bet many of them couldn’t tell the Constitution from the Declaration of Independence, The Federalist Papers, the Emancipation Proclaimation or the warranty on their new flat-screen TV.

I remember a project I had to do for home schooling - I took the Bill Of Rights (the first ten amendments)and went door to door in a neighborhood several blocks over from me. I read them to whoever would open the door and let me read it. You have no idea of how many thought it was some communist propaganda.

Or the Gettysberg Address, like the demented Billyboy who advised us "as the Constitution said, 'of the people by the people and for the people.' "

This has been done in many different ways and I find it interesting. Ask people if the statement “From each according to their abilities - to each according to their needs” is from the US Constitution or the Declaration of Independence. It’s just plain scary how many people will pick one or the other.

LOL! I'll bet you're right.

But they got us on all the gossip (and other assorted BS)on Oprah, MTV, Regis, Survivor, The Great Race etc etc...

I bet all their kids have the latest video games depicting the glory of grand theft auto, and any other wannabe special forces shoot ‘em up games...

It is a bankrupt following, devoid of any substance or future...

If that is what Obama is all about, all it will take to demote him into oblivion is that we all show up, and vote the other ticket...It’s really that simple...

The Obamanation IS going to show up and vote in droves like we have never seen before, they know this...

60 more day people...Just do it!

I resent that remark! I believe that at least 90% of Liberals would recognize that Sony label on their TV warranty page!

You just had to bring up the Flat Screen issue!
How dare you question their patriotism like that!

"...or the warranty on their new flat-screen TV."

Yeah, but that's assuming they can even read the warranty!
