Well, well, nimrod and dufus... (you can figure out the order you wanna be in)... How lovely.
No, dufus, I am NOT a Libertarian, though I was once. But too many narrow-minded idiots (not unlike the two of you, for that matter) that wouldn’t hear anything bad said about their pet notions or candidates. Not enough about acting to preserve and protect the Constitution and the Republic. Again, kinda like you two jagoffs. And, no, I never WAS a Pubbie. My parents were. I have ALWAYS been one to want the CONSTITUTION restored to its rightful place as the supreme law of the land. I don’t know WHAT you want.
Now, for the trillionth time, I will state my position on the Constitution so that you will know beyond any doubt where I stand.
I believe that the Constitution is a pact made between We, the People, who are the SOURCE of all legitimate governmental authority, at all levels, and the Several States, to delegate certain, VERY LIMITED authority to a Central Government, in order to have it do certain, specified things in our names and on our behalf, things we could legitimately do for ourselves (since it is not possible to delegate to some second or third party an authority YOU YOURSELF do not possess), but would be better and more prudently done by that central government. I believe that We, the People, did NOT intend for this central government to grow like Topsy and become the all-pervasive entity that YOU seem to be cheering on. I believe that the People, being the SOURCE of the authority worn by FedGov, can use whatever means are necessary to REMOVE that much misused grant of authority.
Further, I believe that BOTH halves of the current ruling Party are culpable and guilty of usurping the power and authority of We, the People. and that simple-minded idiots (similar to, but not unlike the two I am addressing here) continue to cheer them on, as long as the right talisman is worn by the usurper.
I am, and have been for at least the past 20 years, a registered INDEPENDENT, not a member of ANY party, for NONE of them have shown me they are fully supportive of and committed to restoration of the Constitution.
Oh, and Stultis, ESAD, OK? Your post is probably one of the LEAST helpful of any I’ve read over the last six months.
Stop starching your underwear, it might improve your disposition.
In all your banal verbiage on the constitution, you still failed to consider or address the many amendments that were legally passed by methods set in place by the founding fathers.
Looking over your words, I am left wondering if you even realize what it is you want, other than to flap your gums.
As far as party’s go, like it or not, we are a two party system. Dozens of others exist, but they have little or no voice in the process with the 2 party system we have.
As we try to restore the minority party currently, to prevent more of a one party dictatorship we are currently under, we have to fend off leftist morons and holier than thou twits who parrot their positions and claims and only wish to run down that minority party.
I would just as soon do away with party’s myself, but that is what we have to work with.
All your ranting and raving does nothing to acomplish what you claim you wish. With what we have to work with, we need to work through one of the party’s to do just as you claim you want to see happen.
Instead, you do nothing but join in with running the minority party down, showing people it isn’t worth anything and allowing the current majority party to remain in a dictator position.
In my book, that makes you the nimrod or dufus. You can figure out which you are for yourself.
I now see that I have been totally wrong in, for instance, applauding and encouraging Republican Senators filing motions and amendments challenging the Constitutionality of provisions in the Democrat's Health Care "Reform" bill. Obviously they only legitimize the process, in itself Unconstitutional, by doing so. Yes. Now I realize that Senator DeMint and others should have sat in unsullied silence. Unless they can formulate, and bring to the floor, a single amendment that makes everything right, all at once, and without a hint of compromise, they really shouldn't vote on anything.
Of course we'd have, in that case, fully government controlled health care, and ever other element of full bore socialism, in about seven nanoseconds. But at least we'd be PURE and UNCOMPROMISED in our INTENTIONS, which is what really matters. Heck, I will almost be able to smile as the jackboot stomps on my face forever.
