>> You also had to OWN PROPERTY to vote, if you have No Skin in the Game you have NO RIGHT to vote against those that do.

I wish we had that one back. As well, you should have to be a taxpayer (not an EIC whore) to vote. Or at least, everyone gets one vote, but those who own property and pay taxes get *extra* votes.

But Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is arguing that the Second Amendment includes a right to revolt against government tyranny, a point of emphasis uncommon for mainstream presidential candidates.

That is a fairly recent development. Just peruse Thomas Jefferson's writings to discover such.

As a woman, I grieve for the wussification of America. I call it the “soccer syndrome.” where nobody gets hurt, because it is a non-contact sport, nobody seems to score, so there are no loosers, or winners to make anyone feel bad, and everyone goes home with some sort of ribbon because they participated, however marginally. It’s a girls’ game that is popular, I think because you get to wear knee socks.

It was also enforced as a de facto one vote per family, as well.
The property owner was the head of the house, and only he could vote.

You don't know soccer, then.

I called her “sweetie”. I’d like that stricken from the record. Stricken... with extreme prejudice.

Not the first middle-aged leftie broad with the hornrims & goofy-tooth grin topped with age-inappropriate hair that I’ve ever seen. Not the first such named “Susie”, either.

They’re all over the place in our behemoth universities.

“Judge a man by his enemies” - Ted Cruz looks more & more like the real deal as these fevered moonbat denunciations continue to pile up.

CRUZ or lose!

Soccer moms do not put their boys in football because they are afraid of injuries. One can complete an Xlarge pizza and a chest of soft drinks and never see two girls on a soccer field mix it up.

You must mean international men’s soccer.

Here are some more:


“And what country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not warned from time to time, that this people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. “

Thomas Jefferson


“This country, with its institutions, belongs to the people who inhabit it. Whenever they shall grow weary of the existing government, they can exercise their constitutional right of amending it or their revolutionary right to dismember it or overthrow it.”

Abraham Lincoln, 4 April 1861


“Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of...”

James Madison,The Federalist Papers, No. 46.

Do they seriously believe that the United States military works for a bunch of communist-loving, America-hating, fag-embracing, godless pukes? And that all the lefties have to do is snap their fingers and the troops are going to bomb, shoot, and blast their fellow citizens — most of whom believe as they do — into oblivion?

You are aware of the recent (past 5-6 years) Christian purge from the military, no?

Thanks! I know I hate to compete, but I am sure glad that my husband, the developer of my neighborhood, the businesses in my town, and the professionals who services I seek, thrive on competing and being the best.

I am the beneficiary of a strong American competitive society.

No score games, giving awards to kids just for showing up, capping how many points a team can win by (if they are allowed to keep score), this generation will not make it in the real world. It is sad. I teach my grandkids common sense whenever I can.
