That’s my issue with him. And he was too pro-British. I understand Jefferson’s naivety in regards to the French as well, but ...
Indeed, a Jeffersonian America likely would never have even conceived a traitorous FBI, no public funding of abortions, and no wars in far off lands going on for 20 years with nothing to show for it.
Didn’t he say to Jefferson “There are your Masses, they are nothing but braying asses!”
He is the root seeds of the Republican Party.
Frankly, if I wanted to feel victimized I have the ultimate example in the public media when Mark Levin and Mark Meckler chose to go absolutely nuts a couple of years ago while on the air denigrating the South Dakota Legislature for sending COS’s Resolution into the dustbin of history. If I recall it was not the first time nor hopefully the last.
Don’t recall either of the two being especially uncivil. I’ll have to do some reading. I especially don’t like being tagged with the tired COS mantra that we must be democrats because they really don’t want a COS. That is truly the height of stupidity thinking Democrats, Socialists, Communists, leftists, Progressives are somehow not interested in a COS.
They are salivating at the chance, not from the standpoint of winning the day on Amendments though that should not be overruled, It is the Circus they seek and will take every advantage to make it appear that the Constitution is the real problem. The Constitution has never been the problem. The hearts and minds of we the people are the problem.
Regarding Mrs. Schlafly, I'll save you the time: Phyllis Schlafly vs. Article V.
“I’ve never tagged or accused any Freeper of being a rat. Why did you bring up this accusation in the context of my posts except to smear me?”
Well I’ll have to agree with you there and apologize for what appears to be a reference to you when it was the last thing on my mind. The reference was to a paid employee of COS who shall remain nameless but loves to paint all opponents with that phrase “you must be a democrat”.
Our back and forth I hope will always be at the level of ideas and principles we believe individually but not to the point of smearing one another. I would never do that intentionally and appreciate how you might feel that way based on my comment.
...and in your quote above you asked why, rather than lashing out. Another point in your favor. My issue has always been with COS and their ideas on the Article V issue. I have met a few of the COS staff, and in general we agree 99.9 percent on Constitutional issues, just not on their position on Article V at this point in history.
PS, Thanks for the link just haven’t had time to read yet.
Okay. Fair enough.
