No, TB, according to me, it is the SUPREME LAW OF THE LAND.
Congress and the President have violated their oath of office to the Constitution. They must be removed.
That government is best which governs least.
That form is called anarchy, you putz.
Patrick Henry favored state sovereignty, and a confederacy of states for general purposes. I don’t see why that can’t work. It wasn’t given a chance. Instead of amending the Articles to correct errors in the confederacy, they went for a strong national government. But then, I already said that several posts ago, regarding backtracking. I guess in all your emotionalism and gibberish, you forgot.
Incorrect. Anarchy is the absence of government. That’s not what I advocate. I advocate as little government as is necessary. The Constitution gave us much more than that.
What were the errors in the Articles and how would you have corrected them?
How would you remove them? You'll have the Congress impeach itself?! And the majority party will impeach its own president??
So give them a choice. To quote a recent President, "you are either with us or against us".
Or as was said at the time of Indian Independence from the British - if you had not ceded power when you did, you would soon have had no power to cede. (In other words, British rule had lost its legitimacy.)
Elections are tricky nowadays. Only go along to get along Repubs are given money by the RNC to run (pretty much), plus the fraud by Dems is bad and will get worse and worse.
The tea parties have a postive purpose, even if the ******** in Washington dont take notice of them.
They are opportunities for patriots to mobilize, meet in large numbers and see that other (real, not virtual) people feel the same way they do.
They have been peaceful protests thusfar, but I, like you, am getting impatient for the first shot to be fired.
Caps don’t bother me any. If someone doesn’t like reading caps, s/he’s perfectly free to skip over your comments. Just like I do hers/his!

As you show, it is easy for small minds to destroy.
>If your account of events is accurate, (and I take it at face value it is) the fact that a US Senator considers “unsolicited” constituent email “SPAM” is outrageous.<
I kept it, and the replies.
This is what it said:
“Fisher, Julianne (Johnson)

Actually, it’s the definition of it: Spam is the abuse of electronic messaging systems (including most broadcast media, digital delivery systems) to send unsolicited bulk messages indiscriminately.
I suggest you contact Senator Gillibrand’s office directly. You may find them at the following link: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm. “
to which I replied:
Actually since the Senator is supposed to represent ME it is not indiscriminate - so stop trying to keep me from my Senator.
And I already called the office and went to her web page and was irate that you have the NERVE to try and silence me from making my wishes known from MY REPRESENTATIVE!
Going to the press may be one way to go, but how much traction would it get actually? The MSM just doesntcare at this point.
No fear. Almighty God, not some shady thug from Chicago, is supreme; HE will avenge their innocent bloodshed. As the late Henry Hyde put it with such blunt austerity, on Judgment Day the feeling of aloneness, the stain of guilt will shake the accused as nothing imagineable.
In your opinion, what were the errors? What would you and Patrick Henry have done?
>This is the Rino Free America Project. Get involved. Make
them listen. Write a letter and MAIL it.<
I have called
e-mailed
faxed
written letters
They send blanket forms back, but they don’t care, it is obvious.
I simply said that email is useless. But hard mail gums up their works and is annoying. ;-)
For instance we watch “V” on Hulu. And have “24” marathons where we watch the entire year in about 3 nights. We've been known to up at 2 a.m. saying, “Just one more!” :-)
