Constitution Derangement Syndrome?
They mock because they don’t understand.
To be honest, I am stunned that even Dims are getting offended at reading the constitution on the House floor. It’s worse than even I thought....
Immediately after 9/11/2001 when tens of millions of Americans proudly showed the Flag I recall liberal / progressive Americans rejecting the Flag because it was "too Republican."
The 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus/street revolutionary rabble and their ideological issue (children)-cum-Rat Party (formerly the traditional, patriotic Democratic Party) DO IN FACT reject our Constitution, Flag, and everything about America because they feeeeeeeeeeeel it is all "too Republican."
They are some sick puppies.
“In any case, it is a presumptuous and self-righteous act, suggesting that they alone understand the true meaning of a text that the founders wisely left open to generations of reinterpretation. Certainly the Republican leadership is not trying to suggest that African-Americans still be counted as three-fifths of a person.”
It is presumptuous and self-righteous to assume the true meaning of the text is subject to generations of reinterpretation, because it is antiquated and confusing. Human pride, not scholarship, sponsors inordinate confidence in social, economic, and political philosophies mandating the Constitution be resurrected from a supposed decaying existence. People should find such revelations unacceptable; unacceptable because the tradeoff is always human freedom.
Alexander Hamilton explained how to read the Constitution in the Federalist Papers, and following his guidance one easily understands the death of slavery was proclaimed. Hamilton in Federalist Paper 78 uses the term “manifest tenor” meaning clearly visible direction of thought and in Federalist Paper 81 rejects a popularly acclaimed “spirit’, which accommodates tortured, backwards engineered homilies needed for grievous schemes. A deformed logic was needed to separate states rights from the overarching principle of human freedom. With Hamilton’s guidance, a document hedged in by a Preamble exalting human freedom, and a Bill of Rights demanding human freedom becomes timeless and grinds slavery into dust.
You want to hear fundamentalism? Tell a liberal that the 14th Amendment doesn't endorse abortion or automatic birthright citizenship.
Democrats these days are like spoiled toddlers, easy to goad into a tantrum. Since they control the levers of the pop culture, they heap disdain and snarky ridicule on whatever upsets them. Watch their heads explode when you bring up:
Sarah Palin, Sheriff Arpaio, Reagan, Jesus Christ, Right to bear arms, Tea Party, Constitution, securing the border, Fannie and Freddie, the failed war on poverty, affirmative action ... and the list of nuclear topics grows with each year.
When they screech the loudest, that’s when you know you’ve hit an evil nerve.
I’d say all of the effete pussies and homos on the NYT editorial staff should be hanged, but only the electric chair would be appropriate punishment for disseminating marxist propaganda, misinformation, and military secrets.
Rush nailed it today when he said that reading the Constitution on the floor of the House chamber amounted to performing an exorcism. Their heads are already spinning. This NYT editorial is like pea soup dribbling down their chins.
On the one hand this sounds all loosey-goosey and liberating and stuff, but OTOH liberals still fight tooth and nail to get their people on the courts so that they can force their understanding of the text down the rest of our throats.
Amazing! Totally clueless.
Commies (Democraps) hate the Constitution. Socialists (Republicraps) pee on it. What’s the difference? All but the freshmen class are traitors. The freshmen soon to join their ranks....
The joke of a reading was simply pie in your face as they continue to violate their oath and enable an usurper to occupy the Presidency. Pathetic morons the whole bunch.
The Big Boo
Oppressive is the much more appropriate word for the extremists in the Democratic National Socialist Party.
How is it ‘Progress’ to regress back to the bad old days of Communist repression?
How is it ‘Progress’ to enslave some under higher and higher taxation?
How is it ‘Progress’ to control more and more of the economy under a bloated and incompetent central regime?
How is it ‘Progress’ to control what people can say or write?
How is it ‘Progress’ to control whether people can defend themselves?
