Shredding the Constitution, One Article at a Time

What do you get when you take the foundation of a country and you systematically destroy it through certain measures and politically motivated actions? Well, the obvious outcome would be the downfall of that nation, and its democracy. But aside from that you run the risk of further disenfranchisement of the people. Well that's exactly what's taking place from Washington and now I simply keep track of the number of violations this Congress and new president have committed since taking office in January.

The latest violation of the constitution is the measure to grant the District of Columbia voting rights in the House of Representatives. Now, before you hail the advancement of democracy I must inform you of this breach. The constitution clearly states, again, the constitution clearly states that the Congress be made up of "several states", or the now 50 actual states(There weren't fifty states when the constitution was written of course) and that the District of Columbia be excluded from voting rights because it is not a state, its the nation's capital. Now, before we reject this latest violation we must go back and fix another. The people of Washington DC shouldn't have to pay taxes. Why? Because DC is not a state, regardless of its residents.

One might say this latest act of violation is one more step toward a more perfect union (I hate when people use that to justify their anti-American, unconstitutional actions) But this is something for more political and sinister. This move is a ploy by the Democrats to increase power. Tell me something, is it a coincidence that the DC area is 75% democratic? or am I just floating into the realm of conspiracy theorist again? I'd say neither. I would say that the Democrats want this one party rule come hell or high taxes. But for you GOP members who rail against this, oh I've got some news for ya. You know Orin Hatch much obliged this move because Utah will get an extra Republican vote in return. You know, I guess American democracy is up for sale. No it's up for grabs because no one has a steady hand on the tiller, but instead a they've got their foot on the gas toward a broken republic. And you know what happens when a republic cracks and crumbles don't you? You get increased disenfranchisement, dissent, and you can kiss peaceful protest goodbye because you'll have one violent revolution on your hands. And the end result? Cuba baby, Cuba. Now, where is our Che?

I suggest the Democrats and the few Republicans who wear short leashes and perform tricks for those same Democrats to straighten up for simply put get your butts tossed out like weekly trash pick up. We're not going to sit around and watch you pick our pockets, raise our taxes, release radical Muslim terrorists in our communities, violate our constitution, and expect to get away with it. By George, which ever George that may be, preferably the first and only George in my opinion unless it's also George C. Scott, we will stage the second revolution and this time, we will use ideas and integrity instead of guns and bombs. We are a peaceful people who wish to be left alone with our respect and dignity. But when our elected officials stone wall us with every legislation they can think of, we won;t take it much longer. But until then the saying goes: "When the parents are away, the children will play" Well, I have some news for ya, mom and dad are home, and we ain't happy. Now, clean up this mess or we're gonna put baby in the darn corner.
