[ Constitutional Convention?
That’s the last thing in the world you want.
It will be run/controlled by the “Free ‘Stuff’ Army” demanding the the New Constitution enshrine their ‘right’ to Free Stuff from those who actually produce stuff.
And they’ll get it - “They” outnumber “Us”. ]
I think we would have better luck convincing the liberals that the USA would be better if they got rid of all those “redneck te-baggers” in flyover countries by forming their own countries along the east and west coasts, and let the rest of the “hayseeds” living in the midwest with Texas as the only coast just “live their backwards” values and whatnot.
If we could convice the morons on the coasts to form their own country maybe we could re-create the USA inthe midwest. We could say we are following the example of Czechoslovakia and it’s peaceful breakup into the Czech Republic and Slovakia, the only way this would succeed is if we would make it appear like their idea, and then “reluctantly go along with it”.
That has a better chance of success in my opinion.
I’ve been trying to come to grips on why Obama would want a quick SCOTUS trial. Does anyone else remember ‘The Pelican Brief’? Way out there with tin foil hat conspiracy but in 2012 he would control the SCOTUS nominee if required, in 2013 he may not.
Having a Constitutional Convention now would be like nine sheep living among a pack of wolves deciding to have a barbecue, and hoping nothing bad happens to them.
