So I can count you on the list of those who want to “deviate” from the Constitution. The states have applied. The Constitution mandates a convention which means Congress must obey the Constitution and call the convention. You, because you fear the liberals, justify not obeying it on this basis. Your reason doesn’t matter. You want to give the government the authority to “deviate” from the Constitution. I use the word “deviate” deliberately. This was the word used by a government to ignore its Constitution in the legislation that let it do so. I’m there are other examples. But this one cost us: 1933, German Constitution.
You wish for no convention, the government to have the right to “deviate” from the Constitution. Are you really gut sure you want the government to do that?
Where did I say anything about deviating from the Constitution???
Congress, the Senate and many administrations have deviated from its originalist intent, much to our protests, but not much action to correct this trend for years...
Obviously you misunderstand my reservations about a Constitutioanl Convention, and that your assumptions give you liberty to insult those concerns...
Do not assume I give ANYTHING more than a concern that opening up such a mechanism to allow these liberals a chance to get ANY real changes, or weaken our Constitution anymore than it is already being challenged in the conventional conduct of government business...
My concerns are basic, and that allowing anything, or anyone to corrupt the founding document more than it already has been in recent history, is something for another day...I would rather stand pat and allow these psuedo government edicts to be destroyed by conventional means...
We obviously do not have anyone we elect now that has the stones to challenge the attacks now...And those attacks, in my opinion are manageable, without opening up the safe with the “white out” just to change things (for the worse, or the better) in the Constitution at this time...
(your words) “You want to give the government the authority to “deviate” from the Constitution.”
With what I stated above...Be very careful with your assumptions...
Just because I have concerns that a Constitutional Convention would be a can of worm I would rather not open up at this time, does not give YOU liberty to assume I am conceding ANY liberty to the knuckleheads screwing this country up right now...
You, in the comfort of your anonymity, can put me on any list you believe I should be placed upon...I do not answer to you, or anyone else...And if you believe for one second I am a similar cut to the people in 1933 Germany, who conceded to those “deviations” in their Constitution, you got bigger problems to deal with than insulting me with your assumptions...
These are my opinions, nothing more...
