There are only a few LP members who write for LRC. Elkins isn't one of them, according to some of his earlier columns. Constitutionalists are getting as much bashing these days as liberals are. I don't understand why.

There's a big difference between loyalty to country and letting politicians get by with wiping their backsides on the Constitution to cover their own treason.

Wait until the demand for a declaration of war is really pressed in Congress. Part of the deal from the left side of the aisle will be a demand for another Sedition Act as a price for agreement to declaring war. You can bet on that. The traitors will want cover in time of war, when the price of treason is to be paid at the end of a rope. They'll want any criticism of government suppressed so that evidence of what they've done can't be used to get them out of office.

That I won't disagree with. And the national ID card is a joke. I'm currently at home laid up from a car accident from an individual who got a state driver's liscense with a falsified address. What makes ANYONE think the national ID card is going to help? That's one subject I've not broached because the concept is so mindless it's not even funny.

If Elkins is the Constitutionalist that you claim he is, he wouldn't be bitching and moaning about censorship -- comparing Free Republic to a government entity. This website is not a government entity -- it's private property -- and, as a supposed Constitutionalist, he missed that basic, underlying and fundamental truth.

I'm not certain I understand what you think "the left side of the aisle" has done. Support for open borders and Muslim "freedom frighters" has not come primarily from the left. (BTW, same goes for our policies with regard to China.)

Rare is it that so much is said with such clarity and brevity.
