We no longer have a constitutional republic. We have -- in effect -- mob rule, mediated by the mass media. The media appoints a figurehead "ruler," and when he/she proves a dud, they appoint another one.
I still believe, however naively, we as Americans are unique and this lawlessness will eventually be rejected and not by politicians but by average 'educated' Americans. As Rush and Mark like to say, 'Conservatism is in ascendency.' But it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better.. and that's fine by me. This parasitical class of people must be driven to the wilderness once and for all and for all to see. Done.. Dead.. and Despised. Our emphaticness must be similar to those eastern Europeans who threw off the Russian bear. They spit and curse every time mother Russia is mentioned. The average American hasn't got it in their bones yet... but God willing, they will.
I’m coming around to Post Constitutional thinking.
Maybe I can suspend paying taxes for while.
And maybe ATF could sell me a few hundred assault rifles, so when the IRS come to collect, I can deliver.
