Oh. I didn't realize that you had such good intentions. What a fool I was. I take it all back. With such pure intentions, unsullied by unseemly efforts or expenditures to actually advance a political agenda, you surely must have "done" (by not doing) far more to effectuate limited and constitutional governance than any of us poor party hacks. Because, of course, having good intentions, and keeping them utterly pure, and never, ever comprising them by supporting a less than completely perfect party or candidate, is far more important than actually doing something.

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.
