You are right...and in a way so is Pawlenty. No matter what the disaster or catastrophe that this country has faced, it has bever gone back to something that existed before.

My point was that I want to take back our country from the socialists AND take it back to the original intent of the Constitution.

Simply that there are basic tennets that are no long operable.

In the context of the Constitution and the Bill or Rights, name one.

You are being obtuse. I was talking about some tenets of Reaganism, two of which I mentioned, not the Constitution. Like it or not, the government of this nation, no matter who was in power, has always been trying to tear down or push back the constraints placed on it by the Constitution. It is what government does and what government has been incrementally successful at since the Constitution was ratified.
