We are on the same wavelength as to the Sununus and Bush the Elder.

Private property rights are not a desired part of the CM. 99.999999% will be my bet.

All Your Property Are Belong To US


The Supreme Court did a number on the Fifth Amendment today. This decision is sure to get people fired up.

...

Scott Bullock, the attorney for the Institute for Justice who represented the families, said: "A narrow majority of the court simply got the law wrong today and our Constitution and country will suffer as a result."

Unfortunately none of those justices are among those rumored to be retiring...

Since Demonrat politicians cannot eat their own, it is still a wedge issue and maybe the one that permanently tanks the Demonrats.

Please note that the three hardline social conservatives: Rehnquist, Scalia, Thomas, ALL voted right. No redefinition necessary. Each new justice should be like those three and all issues will resolve accordingly.

A well regulated Militia being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed.

In a discussion with a co-worker today on this Supreme Court decision (he didn't see what the big deal was), I actually had to quote that Amendment to drive my point home. Dullards.

"Actually, 3 of the 5 who voted for it were appointed by Republicans."

Even Republicans make mistakes. A decision this disgusting liberal and statist makes me want to scream. This decision marks the beginning of the end of the concept of 'private property', unless it is reversed in its entirety by a later court within a very short period of time.

The public schools have (since the mid 1800's) succeeded in creating a LOT of STUPID people. My definition of STUPID has nothing to do with their intelligence - it has to do with the indoctrination that they received. I know - I was one of them.

The reason that your office associate had no issue with today's ruling is because he has no CLUE regarding history.

By the way, what's all the surprise out there?

If the Supremes can issue Roe, and justify baby-killing, what is mere PROPERTY in comparison?

I guess that should clear up any lingering doubts as to who actually owns the property in this country.

Do you ever wonder how politicians that earn relatively low incomes end up being multimillionaires ?

Anyone who speaks of secession in this day isnt thinking right. The USA is the greatest country in the world. Still many things could be done to improve it. We need for this country to stop thinking of itself as being run by two separate political parties. We need people in the Congress who will work together for what is best , not to get their side elected, and with our present system as it is that wont happen.

"We need people in the Congress who will work together for what is best , not to get their side elected, and with our present system as it is that wont happen."

What is best is for them to stop working. Everytime they do something for the people it just leads to bigger and more arrogant government.

I guess I better get my digs in before the right to free speech, the right to assemble, guns, etc. are taken away too.

The destruction of America from within is taken place as we speak.
