Time Magazine Author Totally Misrepresents US Constitution

What a hit piece on the Founding Fathers. I could barely get through three of five pages of Richard Stengel’s article in Time magazine online today. He twists the US Constitution like every good liberal always does. This is nothing new. Democrat and liberal politicians have done this for years. Time to call out the BS again…

“Time to call out the BS again…”

.
The BS should be called out by members of Congress but the good RATS and RINOs rather not get involved in any controversy for fear that their action would lose them their lucrative jobs.

Actually it is time to pull an Alinsky on the author. Call him out for the uninformed moron he is and how his piece of tripe he calls an article is the reason there is a constitution in the first place.

Without one, he would have been dragged from his home and strung up for treason instead of given a platform where he could lie and hide behind the document he is trashing.

At least prohibition and the income tax were done with amendments properly ratified by the States.

The socialists knew they couldn’t get mandatory health care passed via the Constitutional method of amendment.

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 shouldn’t their goal be to minimize the sins of men ruling over other men?

They’re just starting to “prime the pump” as a move to get rid of or “modify” the Constitution (of course to their fascist likings). CNN started the other day with some CNN talking head nimrod spouting off against it.

Too late to call him out. The young minds full of mush who have already seen it, don't really know the differance, as they were not taught the constitution in school/college.

Most would read and just say to themselves, "Oh, so that's what it says, well I'll Be".

The Pen is mighterier than the sword, it has it's effects. Sad to say, but that is the way it is.

And before I’m accused of simply flogging the problem, the solution is to RE-ELECT ONLY those who pass Constitutional muster. Before you say “My guy’s doing a SWELL job,” check him out at http://www.gradegov.com/

No wonder the mainstream media is going down the tubes. Do they have a deathwish
