I love the new standards, knock out those that didnt vote, then knock out those that didnt vote for him, and then you think those left, represent the majority.. I hate to tell you but the polls show you are incorrect..

Ahh, more accusations while ignoring reality.. Republicans didnt stop NOTHING.. Maybe one day you'll understand that the Democratic policies failed on their own, and Republicans had nothing to do with it..

I'm more worried about "Them" using the second amendment to stay in power no matter what the election results are.

The correct word is "drivel". Sorry to be a spelling cop but that one is painful on the eyes.

There is a reason it says GENERAL welfare, not INDIVIDUAL welfare.

Overthrow Obama? Not so 'crazy' as it sounds

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., recently introduced a TV ad attacking his Republican opponent, Sharron Angle, for a comment she made about the Second Amendment.

During an interview on the Lars Larson Show, Angle commented that if the government continued straying from the Constitution and could not be brought back into constitutional compliance by voters at the ballot box, she feared that people would resort to the Second Amendment as a means of correcting the nation's course.

Fomenting armed revolution?

Make all the rationalizations you want.
Who's the President?
And who's the ruling party?

And if you fail you get hung. That is pretty standard. However, considering you spend a fair amount of time purporting to advocate for upholding the constitution it seems strange that you would so easily dismiss it.

The Civil War was a nasty business. Vicksburg (what wasn't burned was smashed by Union artillery to the point most residents dug caves in the large bluff above the river that Vicksburg sat on), Sherman burned the city of Atlanta, Charlestown SC was torched as was Columbia because Sherman thought the people of SC deserved a double dose so they wouldn't rebel again, Richmond and Petersburg VA were either smashed up or burned and there wasn't much left of Fredericksburg VA.

Jefferson is in good company since Mao Zedong thought the same way and used it to weed out the Chinese Communist Party. The Great Helmsman caused The Great Proletarian People's Revolution of 1967.

From your posts, and many posts on CD, no one is setting gender relations back any more than some of the posters here.
Even if the government had a concerted effort to do so, (generic) you would smoke them.
