Was everyone asleep?

Re: Was everyone asleep?

if we started following the constitution strictly and actually constrained all the branches the way they are supposed to be constrained, BOTH "sides" of this disgrace would lose power in a big way.

Too bad there is no chance of that happening anytime soon. There is no party of limited government that has the constitutional principles at its core and minds its own business.

as for the war, we are now stuck there, probably for decades, and there is no good way to militarily "win" anymore, short of tripling the troops so that we can kill ALL the iraqis.


"Cornservatives need to understand that Dems and Libs and their pals the MSM always work for the next disaster because most of their modern power came from taking advantage of dim wits demoralized by disasters all the way back to the biggist grab of em all in 1932. Ya need a functional brain cell ta ponder history 'n "cornect the dots" as Boom luvs ta state repeatedly.

Oh I like this one a lot! Speaking of disasters that have been used to dupe the dimwits and grab more power, does anyone remember those buildings falling down back in september of '01? I think conservatives understand the concept pretty well, from what I've seen over the last few years.
They sure did get a lot of mileage out of that!.....
It was all Bill Clinton's fault, dontchaknow?....

And I would think that once we have the smoking remains of a whole american city at hand (well, unless it is New Orleans) then the power play will be complete and the conservatives will have a big old fashioned constitution burning, dissenters will be rounded up for the camps, and everybody else will head off to the coronation for the new emperor who will protect us from the bad guys from now on, once there is no pesky Congress to get in the way.
That was an act of God, so it's OK......

I guess I'm a little pessimistic about the long term, too...

Me too.......

Re: Was everyone asleep?

That's not pessimism, that's paranoia . . . all of this so called power grab and Constitution shredding is about making sure that we don't have additional "buildings falling down "

Agreed.

Too bad there is no chance of that happening anytime soon. There is no party of limited government that has the constitutional principles at its core and minds its own business.

Agreed again.

Hmmmmmm, how long have we been in Korea, Japan, Germany?? Have there been results that make the long arangement worth while? We've been in the Balkins for quite some time have we not? Why is the Balkins such a big deal to the USA? Don't know that a triple of troops is necessary, if ya wanna sterilize the place me thinks there is a better way.

Hmmmm, guess I view a perminant shift in society in 1932 very differently from the temporary shift we experinced after 12/7/1941. Ya think we should have surrendered on 9/11/2001 then??

Hmmmmmmm, this Congress is populated with traitors preening for the 2008 election and working closley with our enemies. Your paraniod rant is not what is necessary, the dim wit Dem and the Republican voters need to flush the current crop of traitors (mainly Dems) but the terlet needs to flush the wobbly Republicans not distroy the system as you propose.

I guess I'm a little pessimistic about the long term, too...

I guess you were trying a little moral relativism here, (if my single brain cell is catching all yer cynisism in this post). If Libs can't create a socialist failure in this Country ya think the Republicans will get us mobilized over this little 'bumber sticker' matter, n' turn us into a facist state, when all we really have to fear is global warmin'? Is Liberalism a mental disorder?

Re: Was everyone asleep?

The democrats are in a great position. They can pass bills they know will be vetoed and not suffer the consequences of their actions. they can please their looney base while not actually getting anything done. How great is that.

I am torn because they are trying to destroy people that do not deserve to be destroyed for political gain. they are wasting my tax dollars on political vendettas.

The impeachment thing is baseless but makes the KOS crowd foam at the mouth with glee. Also, if you say the work impeachement enough, the MSM will print it willfully, and pretty soon they are waggin the dog. Doesn't matter if they ever go through with it jsut for it to fail. they just want to taint Bush.

Now the reason I am torn is that while they are wasting all this time, they do not have time to actually get something done.

Minimum wage is a relatively small damage. If we can get by without a national heath care system (socialist) and higher taxes for the rich (people who make over 90K), and leaving Iraq to the huge advantage of our enemies, we will be fine.

If Hillary or Obama is elected pres. God help us all.
