U S Two States Away from Constitutional Convention
Christian Worldview Network ^ | 12/11/08 | Tom DeWeese

Posted on 12/11/2008 5:28:28 AM PST by GWMcClintock

This is the most urgent, most important action alert the American Policy Center has ever issued! The Ohio state legislature is expected to vote as early as Dec. 10th, to call for a Constitutional Convention (Con Con). If Ohio calls for a Con Con only one more state need do so and Congress will have no choice but to convene a Convention, throwing our U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights up for grabs. Ohio's vote today poses a grave threat to the U.S. Constitution. Please immediately call the Ohio lawmakers listed below. ACT FAST - time is of the essence!

--snip-- Thirty-two (32) other states have already called for a Con Con (allegedly to add a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution). 34 states are all that is required, and then Congress MUST convene a Convention.

While you have a good point, there’s no reason to let the leftists “call time of death”.

This would not be a good time for a ConCon.

A Constitutional Convention, when called, can completely re-write the Constitution, even if it was called only to address a narrow issue. With the dims in control, delegates to such a convention would be the Jesse jackson, Bwarney Fwank, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid types. In short: it would be the end of this Country as we know it.

I think this will happen. I think much of what Obama is planning requires this. Even the birth certificate issue plays into this -- "Oh? You're concerned about my status as a natural-born citizen? Well, why don't we straighten that out at the Convention??"

And the new wording for Second Amendment will be: "Guns are for hunting. For purposes of hunting, federal gun licenses and registration are required."

Well this is the first I’ve heard of this.

Interesting that as the communists take over our country we havw this happening at the same time.

My guess is we can kiss our freedom’s goodbye. The left will re-write our Constitution.

Good-bye 2nd amendment, good-bye 1st amendment.

The new one world government is lining up faster than even I thought it would.

And to think George W. Bush republican socialist helped with this final push. Must have to payback his communist masters with his boot licking ending.

Understatement of the decade!

I am genuinely afraid for the 1A, 2A and 4A. This essentially opens the Constitution to "Chicago style pay-to-play" with Soros, the UN and IANSA ready to dish out serious cash to turn this country into a smoldering heap in history.

Buy guns, ammo, and keep the powder dry! This is not going to be pretty.

Toward the end of the article, this is addressed, saying that the vote was pushed to today.

My Rights are not “up for grabs”. Anyone trying to do any “grabbing” is in for a pretty bad shock.

ok - then what happens? Does each state then get to vote on the new constitution? What if a bunch of red states decide to reject the new one and the blue states all approve? Van we then write our own and go our separate ways? If so, then I am all for having a constitutional convention, the sooner the better.

This plays perfectly into their grand scheme - including the related underhanded and not so underhanded crap occuring in the UN (see the Saudi Islam protection proposal). The Islam Financial Laws infiltrating our existing laws (that our leaders have allowed!) and who knows what else.

A Con Con now - or gee - any time the Rats have control - and especially with a muslim imposter coming in the door...I just can’t wait for where all this is heading!

Now what the crap can any of us do about any of this, please?

Sorry for the off topic ping, but you may want to read about the end of our republic.

In that case and if that happens, it’s time to unhitch Texas from the Federal wagon and go our own way.
