Actually the Communist constitutions were much stricter about the rights of people than the US Constitution, which is a very conservative document by modern standards. Of course, it was once understood that the difference was: we conformed to our Constitution while the Communists ignored theirs.

It would be easier to explain it to people if we swore allegiance to a person, say, or the Crown, but this concept of swearing (or affirming, as I prefer to do) to a document…well, that sounds a little pinko to me… 🙂

A real insistence that defending the Constitution is being weak on anything would help.

I am just really hoping to see a Nov 7th sweep…and a re-assessment of many of those laws and policies usurped by the Shrubs! It May Happen! Please, please, please…..

I get really sick of having my patriotism questioned by people who do not understand what the United States is all about, or what real threats to the country look like.

Cornyn is a nut… a wealthy nut with a lot of backers, but a nut nonetheless. If you’ll recall, he’s the one who came within a nanometer of advocating or at least condoning the assassination of federal judges he considered “activist.” It does not surprise me that he has not read the Constitution closely, nor that he pays no heed to his oath of office.

I heard him speak at a fundraiser once. I didn’t want to, but his gathering was at a restaurant across an outdoor balcony from the cheap soup-and-salad place I was eating at, and the sound carried. It was all about money and power, power and money. Nothing else inspires people like Cornyn… nothing.
