I may have made that same error myself. So hard it to be perfect it but it's worth preserving the correct terms.
Are we a Constitutionally limited representative republic? Or just a Constitutional Republic? I'll assume the latter.
they IMPEACH ...WE HIT THE STREETS
“...And her crime spree never ends, pay for play, espionage, making billions in aid money disappear, Benghazi, massive refugee crisis in Libya which she laughed about”
Don’t forget the 20% of our URANIUM that went to Putin.
Fat, drunk and stupid is the only way Hillary went through life.
The Democrats have the “Five Bitches of the Apocalypse” - Hillary, Pelosi, Maxine Waters, Ilhan Omar and the foul-mouthed PLO hag, Tlaib.
If Shakespeare had lived and had written “MacBeth” today, he would have made these women the models for the “Witches” in it.
“Evil” has a face - in fact - five faces. Their names are listed above. KNOW YOUR ENEMIES and fight them!
IMO it's essential to not only preserve but to use the correct terms.
Are we a Constitutionally limited representative republic? Or just a Constitutional Republic?
Your wording is telling.
Rhetorical questions don't get answers.
SHE’S DRUNK AGAIN!!!!!
....and what’s that HORRIBLE smell, it smells like urine, boiled cabbage, and farts.
How come there isn't a criminal indictment of Hilary Clinton for the crimes she has committed if Trump is so powerful?
Here is a list of 11 different Federal crimes committed by Hillary Clinton:18 U.S. Code Sec 793 - Gathering, transmitting or losing defense info.
18 U.S. Code Sec. 798 - Disclosure of clasified information
18 U.S. Code Sec 2071(b) - Concealment, removal, or multilation generally
18 U.S. Code Sec. 1505 - Obstruction of proceedings before departments, agencies, and committees
18 U.S. Code Sec. 1519 - Destruction, alteration, or falsification of records in Federal investigations
18 U.S. Code Sec. 1031 - Fraud against the Unitd States
18 U.S. Code Sec. 1343 - Fraud by wire, radio r television
18 U.S. Code Sec. 371 - Conspiracuy to commit a Federal offense 18 U.S. Code Sec. 1001 - Making false statements
2 U.S. Code Sec. 192 - Contempt of Congress
18 U.S. Code Sec. 1961-1968 - Racketeering
Soooo, this is what they are impeaching Trump with. Except he didn’t do anything to deserve it.
2 U.S. Code Sec. 192 - Contempt of Congress
Please don’t be picky with me—it doesn’t work because I am often imprecise or error prone as you can see from my posts. I have no hidden agenda-—just sincerely trying to use the correct terms
I didn’t mean to insult our Constitutional Republic or cast aspersions on it by saying “just”. I meant do the additional words apply or not.
My question was genuine. Someone around said “Constitutionally Limited Republic” and I was asking you about it. Not implying anything.
At 73 my memory of studying for my 1968 political science degree has flaws. I actually took a one semester class in the US Constitution,read the Federalist Papers,Democracy in America, books by and about Thomas Paine,Patrick Henry and many others. Remember every line? No. Like my Bible studies I feel like I know less than when I started because I now “know how much I do not know.”
I now have the Library of America Debate on the Constitution, a complete set of the Times American Presidents biographies and many on the history of the revolutionary period and most of the Oxford History of the United States. I have but have not fully read the 2 vol. Debate on the Constitution and the 2 vol. Am. Revolution Pamphlet Debate—which I am now inspired to consult. Thanks to you.
I meant no disrespect to you or to our system of government.
Forgive me.
Yeah, it's easy enough to find..."Constitutionally Limited Republic" site:freerepublic.com
Like here, recently..."Earning My Vote" and Other Misconceptions
In fact, as a citizen in a constitutionally-limited republic, your vote is not a reward for a slick presentation, an attractive face, or the display of some talent like the Miss America pageant.
I would not use that term. The reading of the Constitution does lay out the limitations on the government, but IMO to use such a term is meant only to be descriptive of function...limiting the government.
Another instance from 2002...#4
First para, second sentence.
Third para, first sentence. Such use is descriptive, not defining.
Just Constitutional Republic, as you said, IMO.
Thanks for your clarification.
Would you care to chime in on whether or not I made the correct call regarding your particular usage in your article?
It is causing some confusion.
start at reply 61
In #60 you stated it well and I will try to use the correct term. You are right:
“We don’t have a Representative Republic.
We have a Constitutional Republic.
Ducks in a row...Representation is spelled out within the Constitution.
Congressional oaths are to the Constitution.
(...I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States...)
One must come before the other. “
So many would prefer a smartphone internet voting system of direct democracy in which a tearful Greta speech followed by an inspiring Oprah one would allow the immediate election of Bernie. System and vote counting software supplied by Soros companies, of course.
Thanks for your patience and information.
That's why they're trying to destroy it.
You should post that on her Twitter.
I don’t have a twitter account.
