Obama kept Law Review balanced
By JEFFREY RESSNER & BEN SMITH | 6/23/08 4:38 AM EST

I call everyone’s attention the the last paragraph on page 1:

“...Obama “clearly agreed with me at the time that a shift in constitutional thinking from a rights-based discourse to one that centered [on] responsibility and duties ... would be a good thing,” West told Politico. “Partly because of those conversations, I don’t find it surprising at all that Sen. Obama’s speeches are often marked by calls to spark a sense of responsibility, rather than a sense of grievance....”


Anybody listening? Hello? This is above and beyond the “living breathing document” line. It is more like pissing on the fundamental truths this nation was founded on.

To: Protect the Bill of Rights

That comment fits right in with Rahm Emanual’s book where he said we will teach you what it means to be a American citizen.

It also fits right in with Obama saying the constitution tells them what government can’t do to you...
