Why was I expecting nothing other than that from you? LMBO! What part of "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or of othe right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances" do you and the President not understand?

That is, after all, just one lil' on part of what he swore on a Bible to protect and defend. And by making the statement he did before he signed the damn thing, he knew he was wrong.....and yet he did it.....he passed the buck off....rather Clintonesque, I think.....and it appears his supporters grovel on their knees just as the Perverts defenders did.

Set yourself loose from party and vote and support people who actually do know what the Constitution is about and who actually do love the Country.

I presume you also believed the bit about appoint strict constructionists, too? I mean, he IS such a constitutional scholar, right?

OK, so now you're arguing the absolutist position on the First Amendment. Any restriction on campaign contributions is unconsitutional. So, Congress violated their oaths by passing the first restriction 30 years ago. SCOTUS violated their oaths by upholding the constitutionality of most of the restrictions. Presidents Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Bush have all violated their oaths either by signing or enforcing the unconstitutional restrictions.

And as for me, I don't understand the Constitution, I grovel at Bush's feet, I'm no better than the "Pervert's" defenders, I don't love the Constitution as you do and I'm not one of those who "actually love their country." And I guess you would say, since I also took the oath, that I've now violated my oath.

BTW, since you are on expert at who does and does not love this country, I assume that you too wore the uniform and took the oath.

Well, my, my, my. Your political party isn't very big, is it? And it looks like ain't gonna be many folks makin' it to your heaven once you sort out all the oath violators, etc.

P.S. Don't worry about whether strict constructionists will be appointed to the bench - once you've turned Bush out of the White House and given the Dems a solid Senate majority, it won't be an issue.
