Caught in government's vise
WND ^ | 5/21/2005 | Henry Lamb

Posted on 05/21/2005 6:22:07 AM PDT by worldclass

For years, Jesse James Hardy tried valiantly to avoid the day when the State of Florida would take his 160-acre "patch of heaven," 30 miles east of Naples. He spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in engineering studies and legal fees trying to convince the state that his land was not necessary to the Everglades Restoration Project. The state disagreed.

I had hoped for much better from the Bushes.

Hope, another profound liberal cry.

"In fact, let's just give all the power to the executive branch so they can make the laws too, completely bypassing the legislature. I mean hell, it worked in Iraq!!! "

Have you lived in the Soviet Union? I have and in post-Soviet Russia as well. I know what it looks like. And your argument is invalid for once again you assume that a government taking life and property without valid cause is somehow acceptable. Read WND more and spend less time with NPR...you might learn something.

Jeb and George are both guilty of continuing to push a socialist, globalist agenda.

You don't blame the Bushes? Amazingly enough I DON'T believe you. If Bush were a "true Constitutionalist" he would have joined the ranks of the nuts like Perouted and we would have a President Gore starting his 2nd term right now.

I am not killing innocent life, nor am I in Iraq anymore. Watch that "we" crap.

As I suggested, why don't you just push to have all the power of the government ceeded to the executive branch. I gave you sterling examples of where that has worked, which is what you are EXACTLY advocating. And even with that, you are extremely worried about the government TAKING land. Your argument does not flow, is not logical, and advocated ILLEGAL action by the government.

Check my posts...I assume you know how to search it. I do not equate support for Bush with being a conservative. So how long have you worked for him anyway?

"We" to the extent we let it happen. Schiavo was only the tip of the recent iceberg. Forty million innocent deaths can be added to that. (And not I don't blame ONLY the Bushes before someone goes off on a tagent again.)

and it figures that you copied the wrong argument!! LOL!!!

Go back to Russia to be with Puttie....

I refuse to read WND. It is the New York Times AND the WAPO of the right.

The next thing you will be telling me is flight 93 was shot down right? WND reported that as the truth too. They are a bunch of wingnuts.

I feel sorry for you. You have just admitted that Bush (et al) doesn't follow the Constitution and it doesn't bother you. Wow! I hardly know what to say.

Worldclass = living in 3 countries and traveling in 20 others on business. (besides it sounded nice and no one else had it strangely)

Living in Mass?...sometimes I wonder that myself.

Obviously.

You should listen more closely to your therapist when he talks.

report me, see if I care.

if I am blind, what does that make you? You seem to come up with things that I havent said and then deny things you said but don't respond to those when called on them.

You sound like a classic liberal troll.....

this guy is a socialist in conservative clothing. He wants the executive branch to take care of everything and to step in.

That is the DEFINITION OF A DICTATORSHIP.

Make a substantive argument or go back watching MTV.

You first! Your rant is nothing but petty name calling. Bush pushing a socialist agenda IS laughable, so I laughed.

Nowhere in the Constitution does it even remotely indicate that innocent life can be taken against the wishes of the individual

Where in the Constitution does it give the Governor the right to defy any law? You cannot use the Constitution when it serves you and ignore it when it doesn't. Bush swore to uphold the entire law not those that please him. If the courts decide a law is within the Constitution, a Govenor (or President) cannot simply decide otherwise. Sorry but nothing either did makes them socialistic.

Yes. I don't wear rose colored glasses.

As a matter of fact I don't need to wear glasses at all. ; )
