Liberal Columnist: 'Throw the Entire Constitution in the Garbage'
Newsbusters ^ | January 29, 2018 | P.J. Gladnick

"Throw the entire Constitution in the garbage."

It shouldn't surprise you to find out that this is the secret sentiment of some liberals. However, what is unusual is for them to state it right out in the open as Ryan Cooper did in his January 26 column in This Week. What is different about him is that he flat out stated that we need to get rid of it in America's Constitution is terrible. Let's throw it out and start over.

The Constitution is a huge hurdle that the Proglodytes must jump over or around to implement their tyrannical goals and objectives.

All desired expression, be it press, on the internet, or in any broadcast media, must be approved by the Government. People are banned from peaceably assembling to petition the government for a redress of grievances, since the government is never wrong.

Screw you.

No, we mean it. Screw you.

Why are you still reading? We’re going to kill you for that.

That’s it. Yer going down, heretic.

We mean it.

"Let's throw it out and start over."

At least read it before you throw it out.

The Constitution is working as intended, placing limits on the power of government.

No, it is not. That's the problem. The Constitution works great when (if) the elected and appointed creatures in government are willing to obey its restrictions. It provides no meaningful enforcement mechanism against elected and appointed officials who conspire to violate it.

This is why we have the current bloated, expensive, expansive, intrusive federal leviathan state. I applaud President Trump's efforts to shrink it, but they do not address the systematic problem.

To fix the problem, America should aim to make itself more like a proportional parliamentary democracy, by far the most successful and road-tested form of government.
The one that produced Hitler and Stalin?

Maybe he means like the parliaments that were descended from divine-right monarchies, with God-given kings.

That makes no difference. I’m old, but never recanted my Oath. The difficult part will be choice of weapons, since they are all my favorite.

OUR Constitution, protecting the People from an all powerful corrupt Government.

THEIR Constitution, protecting an all powerful corrupt Government from its People, or as Barack Obama said, a Constitution built on Negative Rights.

"but simple doesn’t mean easy."

It actually IS easy. 3 lbs of pressure on a trigger, with one finger, moves a sear, and everything else happens, promptly, and automatically.

The sear releases a hammer, which impacts a firing pin, which contacts a primer cap, which ignites a charge of nitro powder, which propels a bullet, which makes a political statement.

It's not as if democrats are really human, even as they pretend so, for the outside world...

Once you and I go to that great Tea Party in the sky, it's over. For around 80% of the Millenials I meet their critical thinking ability is near zero.

And don’t forget to amend the new Constitution every time you want to criminalize the activities of some dissident, the way the Soviets did.
