i believe that obama views the constitution as "...a charter of NEGATIVE liberties." he has said so himself. [link] and as such has little if any respect for it, along with many other politicians form both sides of the isle.
though this article was interesting, anyone curious enough to do further reading in regards to our founders thoughts and beliefs on the role of government and the supremacy of individual liberty would recognize it for what it is.
i'd rather read the words of one of our most prodigious founders, thomas jefferson, than those of elizabeth wydra and david gans.
"Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny."
Thomas Jefferson
"I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."
Thomas Jefferson
"Our country is now taking so steady a course as to show by what road it will pass to destruction, to wit: by consolidation of power first, and then corruption, its necessary consequence."
Thomas Jefferson
"My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government."
Thomas Jefferson
and besides..what does any of this have to do with this particular piece of mine?
this is a piece about the invasion of privacy and the fact that the amount of tyranny we live under is the exact amount we put up with.
all i know is when it comes to matters of government and the constitution, i'd rather let the men who formed and wrote it speak for themselves and learn it that way...not from some political party with an agenda or former lawyers.
hey, do you think obama is the greatest thing ever? do you think he cares about you? if so, please watch this:[link]
