Well, how about you calling his show and object to his proposed amendment and then suggest in its place our Founder's intended method dealing with deficits?

Last time I heard a caller disagreeing with him he trout's out the insulting remark "Get off my phone you big dope."

Aside from that, why do you have such a problem with constructive criticism of his "liberty amendments"?

If we can make 51 percent of America’s population dependent upon an Obama, welfare, food stamp, section 8 housing, college loan check, and now free Obamacare along withFREE BACON, we can blackmail them for their vote, keep ourselves in power and keep the remaining portion of America’s productive population enslaved to pay the bills ____ Obama’s Marxist Free Cheese Party, which is designed to establish a federal dictatorship and redistribute the wealth which wage earners, business and investors have worked to create.

So, concerned Americans are not supposed to worry about the propaganda and worthless remedies put out by our "conservative" talk show hosts? Seems that they all gave thumbs up to Mark Levin's liberty amendments without pointing to their hidden dangers.

Did you get a chance to read Mark Levin's Liberty Amendments: Legalizing Tyranny? If not, read it and get back to me.

I listen to Mark all the time and he only uses the “Get off my phone you big dope.” for 0bama drones, trolls and other idiots.

I don’t know if Mark has ever read “Prosperity Restored by the State Rate Tax Plan” but would like to hear him comment on it. Why don’t you send him a copy?

Talk show hosts make no laws, tax nobody, command zero armed agents, can legally imprison no man. With what the current administration is unleashing daily on the citizenry of this nation why would anybody be so concerned about the opinions of a guy with a radio show?

Sounds like your beef is with him, and posting here without his ability to acquit himself in the conversation amounts to the equivalent of a conversation with yourself.

FReegards!

Now wait a second. Do you feel the same way when Mark Levin quotes someone on the air and then not only attacks what he has quoted, but engages in an adolescent name calling attack upon the person he quoted?

I have a suggesting for you, give him a link to this thread so he may “acquit himself” and raise his objections to what I have posted.

If the America People do not rise up and defend their existing Constitution and the intentions and beliefs under which it was adopted, who is left to do so but the very people it was designed to control and regulate?

Why don't you ask all the posters in this thread who seem to be carrying water for Mark Levin?

It’s not PORK. It’s a money laundering operation used to plunder our national treasury and fatten the fortunes of the well-connected in Washington.

On June 20th, 2013, I mailed my last available copy to Senator Ted Cruz. Never heard back. Additionally, while Mark Levin was in the Reagan Administration, Ed and I hand delivered a copy to every House and Senate Office.

Perhaps someone here will “tweet” or “hashtag” or whatever this new way of communicating is called, a link to the following thread I started here a couple of years ago. It contains a good portion of documentation concerning our founder’s method to deal with deficits.

Thumbs up to Mark Levin on phony balanced budget amendment!

There’s a tornado warning, and some people have a problem with the syntax that the weather guy is using as he stands in front of the green screen on channel 9 news.

Good analogy.

I won't do your work for you.

How about you grow a pair and call him yourself.

Do my work for me? I thought the object was for true patriots to work together to restore our constitutionally limited system of government.

I've already devoted over 35 years of my life and thousands of dollars in the effort to restore our system of government by researching and documenting the legislative intent of our Constitution as stated by those who framed and ratified our Constitution.

It is interesting to note how you make me the subject of the thread rather than discuss what I have posted concerning dealing with deficits as our founders intended.

That's nice. I started in the conservative movement as a kid passing out Goldwater for President materials in 1964 in deep Democrat-run Rhode Island 50 years ago. Head to head counter-marched the huge anti-Viet Nam war commie protests in DC in 1969, 1970 and 1971.

And by your telling of it you only got started in what -- like 1979? Where were you when Reagan was first nominated in 1968 and first ran (and almost beat Ford's nomination) in 1976?

There's folks on FR (not many) who predate my creds for sure, but to some of us you are a Johnny-having-come-much-later to the gathering than a good many others, taking on a guy who is actually doing, writing, publishing, and strategizing for victory.

If you think your research is so valuable, why don't you do like Levin has done (who actually worked for Reagan), write a book or two, and find someone credible to publish it.

And now all you can do is personalize the thread instead of commenting on what is written?

So balancing the annual budget in a no nonsense way is useless? I think Mark Levin would disagree with you.

Aside from that, if our Founder's method to extinguish a deficit was in place, can you picture the outrage of the Governors and Legislatures of our “progressive” states like California, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania or Massachusetts if their Congressional Delegation returned home with a bill in hand to extinguish an annual deficit they helped to create while in Washington, and these Governors and Legislatures would have to transfer that money out of their own state treasury and into the United States Treasury?

The truth is, our founder’s tax plan is brilliant and creates a very real moment of accountability which would end the irresponsible spending of “neo-statists” [Mark Levin’s terminology] and encourage each State's Congressional Delegation to follow sound fiscal policies to avoid the apportioned tax.

Our federal government personifies a living creature, a predator: it grows, it multiplies, it protects itself, it feeds on those it can defeat, and does everything to expand its powers and flourish, even at the expense of enslaving a nation’s entire population.

Passing the taxation buck to the states who will have no control of the spending is pretty useless. It seems to empower the feds to spend anything they like.

So what happens if the states refuse to pay? A federal judge will make them.

Our founders plan was brilliant right up until the crooks take over, then it all becomes worthless. The founders also knew this.

Many of the founders didn’t think it would last more than a few generations before tyranny arose again. They were more or less right.

The States are not inanimate objects, they are made up of people. The people of each state elect their members to Congress. And when their Congressional Delegation returns home with a bill because Congress could not live on the revenue brought in from indirect taxes, imposts, duties and miscellaneous excise taxes on consumption, and they are hit with having to pay a bill from their own State’s Treasury, I think the Congressional Delegation will receive its just JUST REWARDS for their irresponsible and tyrannical spending.

Did you miss that part in the proposed amendment which explains what happens if a State refused to pay its apportioned share in a time period set by Congress? If a state does not pay its apportioned share of the direct tax, Congress may then enter the state and impose a direct tax upon real estate. And, the Act of July 14, 1798, c. 75, 1 Stat. 53 did in fact imposed a direct tax upon real estate and a capitation tax upon slaves. For the collection and enforcement of the tax upon real estate by our federal government CLICK HERE and scroll down to “how the collectors shall demand and enforce payment”.
