Let us not repeat history. Don’t let historians paraphrase and write:
America gave Obama the Presidency. The Presidency gave Obama America.
There is now a golden ArtV opportunity, with about 2/3 of State Legislatures in Republican hands.
And, more specifically, not just any ArtV opportunity... one in particular: With a "topic" to limiting the Federal Govt (from the National one we have now).
Are guys went home! Where does that leave us?
Demons, deceivers, democrats, collectivists, conmen, criminals, socialists, scumbags, totalitarians, rinos and punks.
Article V? 2016? Etc.?
Whatever it takes.
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
You would use the law to oppose socialism? But it is upon the law that socialism itself relies. Socialists desire to practice legal plunder, not illegal plunder. Socialists, like all other monopolists, desire to make the law their own weapon. And when once the law is on the side of socialism, how can it be used against socialism? For when plunder is abetted by the law, it does not fear your courts, your gendarmes, and your prisons. Rather, it may call upon them for help.
To prevent this, you would exclude socialism from entering into the making of laws? You would prevent socialists from entering the Legislative Palace? You shall not succeed, I predict, so long as legal plunder continues to be the main business of the legislature. It is illogical — in fact, absurd — to assume otherwise.

This really ought to bei n general chat
Still fairly certain a repeal of the 17th would be the most useful and immediate cessation of the direction of the nation.
Way way too late for that. Lincoln started ignoring it followed by Teddy Roosevelt, Woody Wilson FDR LBJ etc. etc. etc. That horse has left the barn.
They tell us, sir, that we are weak;
unable to cope with so formidable an adversary.
But when shall we be stronger?
Will it be the next week, or the next year?
Will it be when we are totally disarmed,
and when a British guard shall be stationed in every house?
Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction?
Shall we acquire the means of effectual resistance
by lying supinely on our backs
and hugging the delusive phantom of hope,
until our enemies shall have bound us hand and foot?
Sir, we are not weak
if we make a proper use of those means
which the God of nature hath placed in our power.

at St. John’s Church in Richmond, Virginia on March 23,1775.-
Caesar dissolved the Roman Republic, installed himself as Emperor, and then Brutus "impeached" Caesar.
T’anks my friend—many T’anks.Let u snot repeat history—unless we do so as the Army led by General Washington that this Nation under God may know a rebirth of freedom as President Lincoln put it.I seem to recall the Brits thought they once had America as well.
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
John Adams
Isn’t it ironic how “conservatives” are running away from the very Constitution that 0bama is violating?
