    The "war on terror" is a sham, and an expensive one at that.
    Go tell the Israeli's about terrorism not existing until 1980. Oh, you can't do that. They're Jews.
    Liberals are a clear and present danger to our nation
    Pick your enemies carefully.

    Peter, you know better. Article V has been used for all of the Amendments to date, hasn't it? Has there been a single time when Article V presented the nation with a new Constitution to consider? In more than 200 years has it happened even once?

    Given the record why do you fearmonger?
    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.

    Has that happened for any of the amendments passed via Article V?

    A lot of things have been proposed but if 38 states write a new one who is going to stop it from going into force? It was a thought not someone's plan.

    Yes, I know about term limits and a balanced budget. A Convention is likely to only pass term limits.
    In more than two hundred years and through 27 amendments your (idiotic) fears have yet to be realized even once.

    You are a fear monger. Are you an enemy of the Constitution? If we continue on the path we are on the Constitution's time is just about over. Is that what you secretly hope for?

    You create the problem and then pathetically try to blame others for it. The only people who buy that crap are your fellow neocons. Hell, even Trump called the war in Iraq a disaster.
    I didn't think it would be long before you hopped of the Kurd train. Soon as I schooled you on every other nation in the entire region threatening war over Kurdish autonomy, you've packed that idiocy in and changed course. Another schooling by your nemesis here cannot be tolerated, best insult me or show your ass further. You're getting your ass kicked.
