You can bet that the left will be attacking the Article V movement as viciously as they have been attacking "Birthers" for the last five years. The first step will be to try to marginalize the supporters of the petition fro a convention of the states for a constitutional convention by questioning their sanity. The "Daily Kos" has already begun the assault.
Attracting flack from leftist quarters implies that the movement is making progress. Hopefully this is just the beginning of something big!
It is my opinion that an article V convention would be a fiasco. We should hope to God that such a thing is never convened, for it will only make things worse.
It is simply not reasonable to believe that Modern Americans will demonstrate more competence than did those who gathered in Philadelphia in 1787.
An Article V convention will put in charge the same sort of people who elected Obama. The very idea should be dreaded and feared.
If we can't even win an election for President, what sort of influence do you expect conservatives to have in an article V convention?
Restoring our Framers’ federalism and much more will be depicted as an attack on “democracy,” as if that alone is the purpose of government.
And . . . as liberals always do, they will attack the persons and character of those who speak up and defend freedom.
The Obama droids will never join, but anyone else with a brain and eyes can see our rampaging dive into tyranny.
