As far as I'm concerned the U S Constitution is the secular equivelent to the Holy Bible. It may not be the word of God but, I and millions more, believed it was inspired by God. It that makes me an old fashioned member of the "Grey Beard Brigade" so be it. I believe the Constitution is worth fighting for and if necessary dying for. Jim +2...... Most young people today don't know their ass from a hot rock and have been raised with zero manners and zero class....SPEAKING OF ZERO CLASS AND ZERO MANNERS, HERE IS A TALE OF TWO FUNERALS By all accounts, Harold was a bright child. He grew up in America. He went to school and had a bright future ahead of him. Harold’s full life was cut short in a violent moment. While few people had ever heard of Harold before his death, many did afterwards. And in death, something shocking happened. What was so shocking, especially when it is compared to the death of someone else recently in the news? Harold is Harold Greene, Major General United States Army. On August 5th, General Greene was killed by a Taliban terrorist. He was returned to America with full military honors. It has been a tradition that the President attends the funeral of flag officers killed in the line of duty. Richard Nixon attended the funeral of a Major General killed in Vietnam and George W. Bush attended the funeral of Lieutenant General Timothy Maude, who was killed in the 9/11 attacks. While Major General Greene was being buried, Barack Obama was golfing. The Vice President wasn't there either. Neither was the Secretary of Defense. Flags were not even lowered to half staff.Four days after Harold Greene gave his life for America, Michael Brown was killed in Ferguson, Missouri. It is safe to say, Brown was at best a thug. The media has repeatedly shown photos of Brown flashing gang signs. Some media outlets have even associated him with a specific gang. In the minutes before his death, Brown committed a robbery at a local convenience store. According to other reports, Brown struck officer Darren Wilson and shattered his orbital bone. Obama sent a three-person black delegation to Michael Brown’s funeral. Obama would not attend the funeral of the highest ranking military officer killed in the line of duty since 9/11, yet he will send a delegation to the funeral of a thug. When Margaret Thatcher, one of America’s staunchest allies and Ronald Reagan’s partner in bringing down Soviet communism died, Obama sent only a small, low-level delegation to her funeral. The snub was not missed by the British. American heroes die and Obama goes to the golf course. A thug dies and he gets a White House delegation. No wonder real Americans hold Obama in contempt.

I could say something here regarding what you can take out of the ghetto but I won't. IMO The Kenyan is the best ally the Republicans have to insure they regain the Senate in November. Jim

ok, so you would like a definition of an ultra right wing type?
the word fanantic comes to mind.
example: those voters who stay home because none of the candidates are good enough for their vote.

Silly Moi! And I thought "Come November" meant: (1) A book title by either: Steve Smith, Gene Hill or Mikey McIntosh- My beloved USMC's Birthday 10 Nov. or- 11 Nov. (1918) Armistice Day- Now Veteran's Day- also the best General the U.S. Army will ever have known- George Smith Patton Jr.'s birthday-- Enuf with the politics already, mu birthday is Nov. 7th- you guess the year, FWIW I guess.

Here's a good quote. Let's play a little game, and try to guess when it was said, and by whom. Any takers?
Will we choose to subject ourselves — this great country — to the despotism of bureaucracy, controlling our every act, destroying what equality we have attained, reducing us eventually to the condition of impoverished slaves of the state? Or will we cling to the liberties for which man has struggled for more than a thousand years? It is important to understand the magnitude of the issue before us. ... If we do not elect to have a tyrannical, oppressive bureaucracy controlling our lives, destroying progress, depressing the standard of living ... then should it not be the function of the Federal government under a democracy to limit its activities to those which a democracy may adequately deal, such for example as national defense, maintaining law and order, protecting life and property, preventing dishonesty, and ... guarding the public against ... vested special interests?

What does that mean to you? Or, is it merely an anti-intellectual, statist religious term used for demonization? Why don't you just call people "Enemies of the State"?

another definition of fanatic:
one who wants it all to be their way and refuses to accept the right of others to want it to be another way.

You know, ed, you have a lot of catching up to do. We live in a world where the media gets their morning briefing from the DNC, and then regurgitates it, verbatum, to anyone who will listen. They don't even bother to change up the words they use. It has become a disgusting feature of the left for longer than I care to admit. Hipocrisy is a lost notion to them. Best, Ted

Here's another good one.
"We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work. ... We have never made good on our promises. ... I say after eight years of this Administration we have just as much unemployment as when we started ... and an enormous debt to boot!"
