We're NOT cowards ping..........

This is my take on Bret's CRAP:

He's simply saying: to all conservatives out there, right of center media aren't cowards and we don't want to be FORCED by our bosses, the WH, the 50% thuggish population, etc. to call you kooks...it's an election year and this should put to bed, either you like it or not!

BTW, we don't want to discuss it either, so save US the trouble!

Signed, Bret Bayer, FNC...representing the right of center talking heads and, wink wink, the RNC!

I think we can lay this whole discussion to rest for once and for all.

How?

Via a brief Constitutional Convention Reenactment. Here's how it went.

Cautious Framer: ‘What exactly do we mean by, ‘natural born citizen’?

Progressive Framer: ‘Why, any baby born on US soil, obviously.’

C Framer: ‘Uh...is that *really* what we mean? Because if it is, King George or any other enemy of the Republic could take advantage of it to undermine the Republic.’

Prog Framer: ‘How so?’

C Framer. ‘Easy. He could arrange to have a child born here, bring it back to England, indoctrinate it against the Republic, and then send it back to run for office. Under the right circumstances, the Enemy of the Republic could win, and destroy everything we're about to give our blood and treasure to create.’

Prog Framer: ‘Granted. But in the first case, that's a worst case scenario and might never happen. In the second, if we're more restrictive, history will say we discriminated against innocent babies. I can't speak for you, but that's now how *I* want to be remembered.’

C Framer: ‘Isn't it better to be a little restrictive than to risk the entire Republic? If, for instance, we limited the highest office of the land to the offspring of US citizens, it would vastly decrease the opportunity for foreign enemies to destroy the US from within.’

Prog Framer: ‘No way. Under that scenario, the children of foreign enemies of the Republic could be born on US soil but still be Second Class Citizens. Just because they have divided loyalties and may seek to ‘fundamentally change’ and/or destroy the Republic is no reason to discriminate against them. Better to lose the entire Republic than hurt the feelings of an innocent baby. Besides, diversity is our strength—and included in diversity are those who hate the Republic. The only thing that matters, and that will ever matter, is what little patch of terra firma the baby happens to be born on. So what if they're loyal to a foreign country--even one that hates the Republic and seeks to destroy it? Non-discrimination trumps every other consideration, case closed.’
