    So there it is. The leftist view, supported by many is the states are mere appendages of the Federal government, subservient. The Constitution may be ignored and is ignored. The Welfare clause no longer means the non-defense articles. It means the government can do as it pleases.

    This is why we live in a soft tyranny.

    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Preseidents who take on the federal reserve don't tend to fair well. I think this is a little like the "Who's the best Quarterback of all time" It's fun to discuss but there really is no answer. Times, rules, expectations, technology and team mates all change and all are intricate parts of who is "the best"
    Fiscally, I can tell you rather objectively that the last two have been the worst. They also made war of 13 of their sixteen years. Cliton was a clown, but under his admin. we at least balanced 1 budget.
    But I guess I'll do with washington because he was the first and got to guide us as an actual Constitutional Republic before that all started to change.

    I am tired of everyone fighting with each other. This is all by design.

    It's not just the left , both "sides" see the BOR's as a pick and choose menu. One "side" intrudes upon gun rights, the other upon due process and both upon free speech and states rights for example.
    However the further we stray from the Constitution the worse things get and that dosn't even meet the donkephants self serving definition of "general welfare".
