One more humiliation for the nation to serve the Muslim dog eaters dreams of a leftist legacy.

We’re at that uncomfortable point where it’s too late to work within the system and too early to start shooting. Playing by the rules has not worked for us. We need new rules.

What has failed us is mass democracy. Not something our Founding Fathers wanted.

The simple truth is this: You cannot have a limited government republic and a popular mass democracy. The voters will simply vote for themselves bigger government and higher taxes on others to pay for it.

That’s why when our republic was first set up only property owners could vote in federal elections, why the Electoral College was created to elected the president, why US Senators were elected by state legislators, not popular vote.
