We have created an aristocracy governing class with our career politicians and Obama can’t wait to become monarch.
The Founding Fathers, including Ben Franklin, would be appalled at what has happened to their carefully-designed limited government. The ideas that their Constitution could be interpreted by anyone as permitting ObamaCare, that not only would there be a federal income tax but that it would be designed to redistribute wealth, and that an anti-American communist could be elected through a combination of fraud and parasitic voter support would shock them.
for later

The last guys who fought FedGov tyranny lost their battle. King Lincoln killed the concept of a republic, opening the doors for the Progressives.
Uhh.. a Kaliphate?
Not surprising. A lot of folks(especially, though not necessarily always, females) tend to think government bans of something that may genuinely be bad(smoking, high calorie-soda, junk food, etc.) is a good thing without realizing the liberty they’re giving up to do so. I was at a Wendy’s once with my parents where they were selling the Baconator Triple Burger. My mother(who I love and is a wonderful lady) exclaimed “that ought to be illegal!” without taking into consideration what an attack on liberty and freedom an act like that would be.
yea, because taxing cigarettes, alcohol, etc has stopped people from using them
what utter bullsh*t
stop endorsing obesity... a little ridicule goes a long way to keeping people in line
