To Michelle re our history: "Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government." James Madison.
While I am at work the army did maneuvers over and around my farm all morning with Apache's. Intimidation? They are doing it more frequently. While we are free we will report like Fox, you decide.
They don't want equality, they want to be our masters.
I posted some quotes earlier from our founders and a few newer, that really epitomize what the Constitution means. Now you can see why Michelle said we had to change our history-they are really are wanting to destroy what the founders intended, and what is their check on power. They fear our history, they fear us not being controlled by them. They really want to be our masters. They want us to be their slaves.
"In matters of power, let no more be heard of confidence in men, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution." Thomas Jefferson.
"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but mean to be masters." Daniel Webster.
"Ther is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble opinion, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution." John Adams.
"The government was set to protect man from criminals--and the Constitution was written to protect man from the government. The Bill of Rights was not directed against private citizens, but against the government - as an explicit declaration that individual rights supercede any public or social power." Ayn Rand.
"The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government lest it come to dominate our lives and interests." Patrick Henry.
"The strength of the Constitution, lies in the will of the people to defend it" Thomas Edison.
