Klein is a Liberal Jew, educated at UCLA and it majored in political science.

Fittingly, he is a California product, not that anyone would be surprised by his opinions, such as they are.

Treason on two feet.

Respectfully FP the Constitution may be confusing to Liberals who may be reading it for the first time. I can hear the remarks in Congress now, “Hey where’s the abortion and Gay Rights clause?” LOL!

This country has declined to the point that it must be renewed.

Since the Ten Commandments were written almost 3,000 years ago they would have to be utterly incomprehensible.

So Klein says the Constitution means something different to everyone. Seems to me it is pretty straight forward. But of course it’s going to seem confusing to someone like him. He probably can’t get past the first sentence without someone explaining it to him.

He obviously cannot understand “shall NOT be infringed!” in the 2nd Amendment.

Ezra Klein is the slithering dumb@$$ founder of the behind the behind-the-scenes Journolist and the coordinated attempts to discredit Sarah Palin immediately upon her selection as VP running mate.

Ezra Klein - Washington Post, Newsweek, The American Prospect is also a member of the Journolist crew.

I don't much go for “what was the most under reported news story of 2XXX?” questions, but the Journolist revelation of 150+ who conspired to shred Palin, the Tea Party and protect Hussein from criticism still makes my blood boil.

Nothing by any of that bunch should be printed without a Journolist Disclaimer.

So was the Communist Manifesto but he hasn’t expressed any problem understanding it.

And we severely need about a dozen Joseph McCarthy types now in the House!!! Recall how badly he was maligned — because he was RIGHT!!! Not much has changed since his tenure. RIP Joseph McCarthy.

Obama admits the Constitution is a document of negative freedoms because it limits the powers of the federal government. God help us.

The interviewer asks if the Republicans reading the Constitution aloud on the House floor is a gimmick:

Ezra Klein: “...of course it’s a gimmick...” “...it has no binding power on anything...”

The liberal left’s view of the U.S. Constitution: it’s just an old confusing, contradictory, and meaningless piece of paper, without value or power, not even a somewhat interesting footnote to history (much the same way they view the Holy Bible).

“Is it time, yet?”

I swear a sacred oath to you all, that when I am handed complete power, I will made stupidity like this punishable by death.

I'm not sure what kind of death, but it will be something particularly unpleasant, probably involving Tabasco sauce, midgets, and/or wasps.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
