From your #425:
> “If you look at the re-districting referendum here in Michigan, you will see how such things are manipulated so that government is seen as the great problem fixer.”
And previously you were saying that MI state legislators and their voters will need to get off the bandwagon that somehow federal stooges know best.
Yes, that’s the process. That is the exact process by which the states are winning over the voters. It takes a while for people to see there’s a better way to get from point A to point B rather than join a traffic jam on Congress’s freeway. The side roads and arterials can get them where they want to go without wasting time and without getting stuck. They come out ahead and less frustrated.
That’s the whole point.
Your rantings are delusional and make no sense.
I simply do not trust the people today to be able to produce a quality amendment. Many state legislators are also corrupt.
But you go right ahead and enjoy your fantasy that things will be glorious. I remain skeptical.
If true, that’s what I like about LS, despite his propensity to come in here and fight with us.
If youre wondering what the last Q pic was about.
2/17/17 Trumps FL home had to have air protection due to an unresponsive airplane.
Currently Trumps house has protection on Watchhttps://t.co/K30j4pqSwz#MAGA #QAnon #QArmy #WWG1WGA #FlynnFab5 pic.twitter.com/GOdjWf517u— stormypatriotjoe⭐️⭐️⭐️ (@stormypatriot21) February 4, 2019
19 February 2017 3:04 AM Fighter jets were scrambled to intercept an unresponsive aircraft near to Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago retreat in Florida, it has emerged.
The incident took place at around 7pm on Friday evening while the US president was in the area. It took place a matter of hours after two objects, including a rock, were thrown at Mr Trump's motorcade on his way to his Florida retreat from the airport.

Ha! It’s not me, it’s the history! Go study it!
There have been dozens and dozens of assassination attempts on POTUS, more than any other POTUS to my knowledge. He is under constant threat and that goes for his family also.
This man wore bulletproof vests to rallies early in his campaign. He is physically risking his life, those of his family, and all their wealth for our country.
Let that sink in.
a BIG thumbs up!
Agree with that 188%. If Northam resigns Fairfax or Mark Herring will be just as bad.
It's still fun though watching leftist extremists eat one of their own.
Stop The Nonsense, Ireland!
That’s a good’n. Ah likes that.
I don’t share your optimism that the Article V process will be performed in the best interest of the States nor We The People. It will be compromised.
I cite the zeitgeist for my opinion.
Is Mark Herring the AG?
> our rantings are delusional and make no sense.
Ha! Its not me, its the history! Go study it!

I have studied it. It’s your comments that don’t make sense.
Again, it is not the process provided in the Constitution that I object to. It’s the people that are doing the rewrite that I don’t trust.
You are simply misinterpreting and arguing about stuff that is totally irrelevant to me. You are wrong, in my opinion, but that’s OK you can come up with something to blame I’m sure.
Time will tell whether your confidence in these people is justified, or not. Till then, it is pointless to continue the discussion.
You will have a chance to see it locally. The first will concern a balanced budget.
When it is received and certified by the National Archives, it will be sent out to the states for ratification.
So it will be coming to you locally. The discussion will be all around you. People that never engage publicly in politics will suddenly be immersed in it. It will shake things up.
It takes 13 states to stop ratification. Michigan won’t be one of them. But of course, you are going to see a year’s worth of local pandemonium in your area and around your state, as you’ve never seen before.
If you study Trump, you know he believes strongly in shaking things up. He’s on record as being for this process. He believes people need a good shaking up.
It’s going to be interesting to see how people respond to the proposition that in times of peace, the federal government should balance its books. It will interesting to see how the left spins against it.
> “I have studied it.”
Uh, no you haven’t.
The people that are writing the proposed amendments are conservative state legislators. Their first amendment out of the box is that in times of peace the federal government shall balance its budget.
The legislators in leftist states are not writing anything because they are voting no to it just as you hope will be done. They don’t have the state numbers anyway, they could never get 34 states to sign on to any of their ideas for proposed amendments and they could never even hope for ratification. They don’t even have enough states to block ratification of a conservative amendment.
So the leftist state legislators enjoy people like you. They want you to have the view that the whole process is full of problems just like you have now. They need people like you and sadly there are such people but it won’t matter because there are not enough people like you that are willing to join and support the left to block conservative amendments.
You don’t know the hard work that conservative state legislators have already done and yet you’re calling people names who do understand.
Please take it somewhere else until you have really done your homework.
What the opponents forget is that Article V is part of the Constitution.
Question: If two thirds of the states pass identical legislation (Amendment language), would the states then have to meet at a Convention of States, or would the legislation automatically become part of the Constitution?
It seems that the latter would be true. The problem of course would be getting legislatures to pass identical language in their bills.
Qmap.pub is looking for people who speak Italian. Obviously for translations.
Interesting, wonder what that is about?
Whew! That was a close one. Nonsense is what I am all about! 😎
I thought you were all about appalling...who knew?
