Amendin' the Constitution to change how the founders DESIGNED Congress to be is an assault on our Republic and destroys the fabric of our nation and our precious traditions in America... unless *I'm* the one proposing an amendment changing the branches the government. Then it's not only OK, it's necessary. Yee-haw!

So have you found a candidate BillyBoy?

[normy]

You do know that Obama will be running against Wall Street and Congress. It's clear Perry and his team are getting out ahead of Obama. It's clear no one else is.

Any candidate but Perry will be forced to play ball on Obama's field simply because they don't have a record of achievement during the Obama reign. We can't just say "you shoulda done X" because Obama will say "I inherited Bush's economy, just give me more time"

How does anyone else counter that remark?

Obama:" Look, we're gradually coming out of this but we inherited a brutal economy and the stimulus really hasn't had enough time to work but we're making progress, don't get cold feet and change course back to what we were doing 4 years ago"

Perry: "I inherited that same economy in Texas but in Texas instead of spending more money, we cut government spending. Instead of more regulations, we pared them down. Instead of more litigation, we signed loser pays. Instead of uncertainty in the tax code we implemented stability and we created 45% of all the jobs created in America while you were President. You lost 2 million.

It’s rich coming from a guy sucking at the public tit for what will be TWENTY-EIGHT years continuously. Why doesn’t he go home and get a job like everyone else ?

Funny how congress already changed this in 1933. It was originally set up to have them meet first Monday in December each year.

“The Congress shall assemble at least once in every Year, and such Meeting shall be on the first Monday in December [Modified by Amendment XX], unless they shall by Law appoint a different Day” Article 1 section 4

Yeah that's just what we need -- Wile E Perry, Suuper Genius, convening an ACME/Countrywide constitutional convention.
