Repeal Amendment XVI and we will be half-way back to a Constitutional Republic, as designed by the Framers.

Well done.

But, the question really is: Does TIME magazine matter anymore? I think we all know the answer, and Stengel (that effeminate twit) is projecting. (And being effeminate is fine...as long as you're a woman).

These stories are the softening up pre-invasion bombardmend. This is a full on plan,,, and the BIGGEST goal of a second Obama term. This is his main advisor. Farreed is is the author of the book he is carrying in that famous photo, “the Post American World”.

More than anything,, they want to be 100% freed from having to pretend to live by the US Constitution. This is their main goal.

The liberals have now made it clear they are the enemies of the Constitution. There will be no mercy and no reprieve.

NO,, Time doesnt. But when the editor of Time and Newsweek launch the SAME philosophical attack. And it is designed to begin the dialogue of replacing the Comstitution with a new one. You BETTER take it seriously.

Remember that the Newsweek editor is Obama closest advisor. This is the start of a coordinated effort. They are moving first to make it acceptable to discuss.

Every move they make begins this way. Global warming,, Health care, US guns causing trouble in Mexico stories started about 3 years ago. A sudden flood.
This is the line that i think will end in open violence if crossed. And i believe they fully intend to cross it as soon as the right economic disaster hits.

Glenn Beck posits the question: “Can Man Rule Himself?”

If the left think that Man cannot rule himself, then how can they endorse Men ruling over other men?

This seems to be a paradox on the left.

If Man is not qualified to rule himself then isn’t man also equally unqualified to rule over others, be those men Kings, Dictators, or even Saints?

All the apparatus of government consists of men, but if the left is correct in their assertion that man cannot rule himself then should their goal be to minimize the sins of men ruling over other men?

Good point. Reminiscent of Madison in Federalist 51, who said:

“The interest of the man must be connected with the constitutional rights of the place. It may be a reflection on human nature, that such devices should be necessary to control the abuses of government. But what is government itself, but the greatest of all reflections on human nature? If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary. In framing a government which is to be administered by men over men, the great difficulty lies in this: you must first enable the government to control the governed; and in the next place oblige it to control itself.”

Rejection of the U.S. Constitution is one step from advocating overthrow of the U.S. government. Are the editors of these publications trying to overthrow our government or do they wish to cedede and establish a new nation separate from the U.S. which I love and which is guided by the U.S. Constitution?

The Constitution is a Compact between the People and the government. When one party breaches contract, as government is doing now, the aggrieved party will seek redress. When the offending party is the government, who may tell the aggrieved party they don't have standing, then all bets are off. This will not end well.

"Surprising people still read TIME"

When US News & World Report finally folded up they just started sending Time with no explanation and no refund. When we called to cancel they asked "why."

Answer: too liberal.

They don't see any paradox because they're "special". Their leftism IS their virtue; it is their qualification to rule over us knuckle-walking bitter clingers.

This question nevers occurs to them and has no relevance for them. It is a question of power. The acquisition and retention of power over others. And for the worst of them, it's the power to harm others without consequence that they seek. They are monsters - killers without conscience.

There isn't any more perfect illustration of how different the conceptions of government have become between the two ideological poles. Shorn of the trappings Stengel's argument is simply "The Constitution protects my freedom to regulate you." The fundamental premise of any constitution is that it describes one set of rules for everyone to follow, open and transparent. Since the heady days of the 60's when liberalism took a hard left turn, that premise has been discarded in preference to a government that attempts to adjust social outcomes by invoking different sets of rules for different classes of people. Progressive taxation was the first of these attempts, Affirmative Action the most obvious. Naturally the strictures of a Constitution will be a hindrance to those whose purpose is to change rules until a carefully undefined "social justice" is attained.

No. It certainly won't.
