I will take Madison over this ignoramus any day. Sure she will change her tune when Trump is elected.

Apparently someone has no desire to be a Senator anymore. If you’re that stupid as to swear an oath to a Constitution you later refer to as maniacal, perhaps resignation is in order.

Mania in opposition to tyranny is no vice.

So I wonder how she’d feel about the separation of powers if Trump were President? Should we find out?

Why have separation of powers when you can have Joseph Stalin.

Jefferson: “If the three powers [i.e., legislative, executive, and judiciary] maintain their mutual independence of each other, our government may last long; but not so if either can assume the authorities of the other”

Liberals question government only when republicans are in charge. When democrats are in charge, they would like to silence dissent and violate people’s rights.

The constitution was designed to make passing laws really really difficult, and keep the three branches of the federal government in check.

Of course that’s now out the window in our post-constitutional decline.

Yup, our Founders were on the Right and loved freedom, in contrast to you Lying Leftist Tyrants. They were ardent, YOU are maniacal.

Yeah, because having an Executive branch that stuffs the Supreme Court with radical agenda-driven jurists, completely controls corrupt Justice and IRS agencies, and has bribed Congress with taxpayer funds into doing his bidding has worked out so well for us.

The country is divided because the left is becoming ever more demanding and many of us are having an almost constantly increasing difficulty paying for our personal needs and wants.

If you can’t afford a soda each day with your lunch, should you have to pay federal income tax so Freddy Freeloader Jr.’s dad can buy soda for him with the federal funds you helped provide?

Should you have to dig deeply into a $9,000 retirement income so a local bureaucrat can enjoy a $60,000/year retirement?

For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; it is he who will save us. (Isaiah 33:22)


This little Passage from the Bible could be what inspired the Founding Fathers to separate the Judicial, Legislative, and Executive powers of human government.

Although the Almighty has the capability of doing all three things at once without conflict, the Founders knew that we are mere mortals and have to break things up to avoid tyranny.

Evidently, this jerk thinks she is smarter than the Founding Fathers, The Prophet Isaiah, or God!

This morning I read about how Rachel Maddow apparently studied Adolf Hitler’s rise to power in Germany in order to try to understand Donald Trump. Ms. Maddow should see more immediate similarities between Hitler and modern Democrats like McCaskill (with these recent idiotic comments) as opposed to Trump.

She’s stupid, of course, but she is against separation of powers not because she’s stupid. . but because she’s a Progressive (like Hillary) and like their mentor was (Woodrow Wilson). The early 20th century Progressives were quite open about their criticism of the system the Founders established and the People ratified. Too Newtonian. . not enough Darwinian, they said. . .government is biological not mechanical, they said, hence the Constitution is a “living and breathing” document. . .which is dog whistle for “it means what we say it means.”
