Seems to me to be fairly anti-capitalist. Communist in fact. Did anyone else know that the tea parties were filled with cry baby communists?<br /><br />Let me guess, after the rally he is going to go collect his welfare check, then not care if his 6 children to 6 different mothers go to school or fight in a gang. Instead stifling the American values of entrepreneurship, he should just go back to Russia/Germany/Venezuela with all the other communists/fascists/socialist.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04103446055814911491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1334761054277672365.post-59064124229891951212009-09-27T05:58:29.054-04:002009-09-27T05:58:29.054-04:00i would say, to some extent, all of the amendments...i would say, to some extent, <i>all</i> of the amendments seem to pass him y.<br /><br />but he seems to have *SOME* grasp on how the 1st, 2nd, and 5th are directly applicable to <b>him</b><br /><br />i doubt he understand the 3rd, and he probably thinks that the 4th (search and seizure) and the 6th ("speedy trial", right to know who accused them and the right to defend against said accusation) are horrible amendments and that <i>of course</i> it is fine if they are broken, because if you are a Good Citizen it won't <i>matter</i> if someone is illegally taping your phone, or rummaging through your stuff, and <i>of course</i> if one is a Good Citizen nothing will <b>ever</b> happen that would cause one to be tried at all, let alone need a "speedy" trial and an honest accusation that includes the facts of the case, because what is more speedy and honest than not having a trial at all? and, of course, if one is not ever going to go to court because they are a Good Citizen, the 7th is a totally fucking useless amendment which just means that all juries are going to be composed of criminals who agree with and probably public endorse both the criminal and the crime - a total travesty...<br />whic throws out any chance he has of understand the 8th amendment (no "cruel or unusual" punishment") because i am sure he feels the death penalty for non-white-men is a feature, not a bug.<br /><br />i... wtf. i can't remember the 9th.<br /><br />erm... sorry - i know (apparantly, i thought i knew them *ALL*) 1-8, 19, 12-27. except that last group i might get some out of order. well, except for the 27th, the pay cap on COngresscritteres. heh. and, of course, the 15th and the 19th are easy to remember, because they SHOULD have BOTH been the 15th. oh, and 18/21 - the reason that Women's Suffrage took so long is the liquor lobby was terrified of women getting the voted and then forcing Prohabition. which was made an amendment (the 18) a full fucking YEAR AND A HALF before women got the vote. fucking morons. i still sometimes mist up when i think about John Adams wife writing him to "remember the Ladies" way back before the Constitution was written - between the Article of Confederation and the Constitution.<br /><br />i'm sort of dead - i've been having a string of acute porphyrin attacks those whole damned week. is there something going on? my dad's sister who carries it, *and* my mom who carry, have both had stomach problems that *I* tend to associate with AIP, and sun issues. you ok? do you know of anyone else with any porphyria? i am wondering if there is something new that is spread across too many states, really, since aunt lives in VA and mom in CA. it's jus... odd. i hope you *are* ok!denelianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08083149213773118359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1334761054277672365.post-54069983534850432742009-09-25T23:54:02.304-04:002009-09-25T23:54:02.304-04:00That's absolutely despicable.

There's no other word for it.<br /><br />And I know the answer about one of the amendments he's breaking, but it's not fair to count that one since I was privy to fact-checking. :DAlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07761235791029721842noreply@blogger.com
