Do we want him KO’ed before or after Denver?

Having seen Torricelli get KO'd here in NJ firsthand, late in the game, and having seen the political machine simply change the rules to suit them, I'd say it doesn't make a difference.

In a way, earlier is better. It would surely embarass the DEMs severely. But it wouldn't surprise me to see them simply want to waive the rule for the Messiah. And to see the MSM take that as a serious idea worthy of consideration and probably implementation, by completely extra-Constitutional means.

If he got ousted right before Denver, the potential for civil unrest among the you-know-whos goes way up. Is that good for the country? I'll leave that one unanswered.

I have nightmares of this happening again. This year.

Careful what you wish for people.

There's a lot to that.

However, if the laws can be ignored at will -- wouldn't it be interesting if a million taxpayers decided not to file next year? I feel I have a duty to act against an illegitimate government, and I can think of several ways to register my protest.

I’d say now, as if you recall Kerry and Dan Rather stonewalled wall the same thing instead of nipping it in the bud. He needs to be asked on it this week. Today.

That "rule" is the United States Constitution. If they're going to "waive the rule," they might as well waive elections, free speech, due process, and everything else in the Constitution while they're at it.

Then this election would literally become a coup.

It's the f**king Constitution....and by God it's STILL the Constitution.

There is no waiving of it, period, end of story......and the country and MSM will simply have to deal with it.

I’ll have to admit the timing sounds a bit early to me for this to be a republican smear campaign. If BO gets knocked out too early, Hildebeast regains the throne and that gives me the ultra-creeps.

Take your time, folks, until after the nomination...
