He just pooh-poohed my question. He said that no body in Washington takes that matter seriously. That is exactly the sort of a response I would expect from someone who wants to completely deflect the discussion away from the topic. He had nothing to say about it, he would not even comment. I think we know where he stands, and it is not for US sovereignty.Dr.Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18360786634583725263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30462652.post-32449381594996321662007-08-07T06:54:00.000-04:002007-08-07T06:54:00.000-04:00Madeline, the States do need the powers given to t...Madeline, the States do need the powers given to them in the U.S. Constitution however, they have sold their souls for the federal dollar...<BR/><BR/>Yes, I agree on Congress using the commerce clause as a right of power-grab. And for my part, being an educator, I would like to the Department of Education SHUT DOWN.<BR/><BR/>One cannot honestly say that our children are better educated today then they were decades ago - before the Dept. of Education was organized.<BR/><BR/>I have written here that the "drug war" has, like the "war on terror" become a cottage industry writ large with contractors / contracting companies raking in the money.<BR/><BR/>Only way States will have more power - perhaps - is if the Senators should go back to representing States and not being elected by the people-at-large but named by the State Legislative bodies.<BR/><BR/>Now we have the TSA - fine folks all, no doubt - with thousands of thousands of people used to violating our persons and herding us like cattle.<BR/><BR/>One more thing, on the "drug war" - our borders are open and our government will be building that super highway (SPP) and letting Mexican truckers have open access to our entire nation - talk about a drug smuggler's dream AND - the highway system's sign-makers will no doubt be "hogs in heaven" when they are commissioned to make every single green, directional sign in two languages.<BR/><BR/>This "stuff" really makes me sick and "we the people" have to keep fighting the same battles against our elected officials year in and year out. I asked a Texas rancher friend of mine who is dealing with illegals swamping his land, why was our government not fully defending our nation. His best guess was that our government did not want a "revolution" in Mexico - well, of course, not being such buds with Vicente.<BR/><BR/>However, our government is importing "revolution" here and if one does not believe me, loot at the stats for MS-13 here now and just remember the Mexican flan flying on the same pole with the inverted American flag below it and listen to the rants of La Raza - a racist gang is ever there was one...Beach Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05210025685265415598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30462652.post-56766495817947891162007-08-06T20:28:00.000-04:002007-08-06T20:28:00.000-04:00I think that it is important to keep the federal g...I think that it is important to keep the federal government small. In that sense, I feel that laws such as the NCLB act are out of line. I think that Congress has taken the commerce clause of the Constitution - which gives them the power to regulate interstate commerce- much too far. Using the commerce clause to justify federal control of issues such as abortion, education, drugs, etc. is a gross misuse of federal power. I would like to return to the days when states had more power.Madelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13481662388397942488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30462652.post-12350501096343309862007-08-06T11:19:00.000-04:002007-08-06T11:19:00.000-04:00So, let's see if I've got this right (pun intended...So, let's see if I've got this right (pun intended): the "moderates" are radical one-worlders; and the NeoCons are a cabal, tricking us all into some "new world order."<BR/><BR/>Look, I don't disagree with any of your principal complaints. Just that the post you reproduced looks an awful lot like...well, Pitchfork Pat Buchanan comes to mind. <BR/><BR/>And who are the dreaded NeoCons? Dick Cheney? Don Rumsfeld? George W. Bush? Not exactly socialists, now, are they? Don't confuse some bad policy choices with a predilection for central planning. <BR/><BR/>This is an exercise in name-calling, an ad hominem attack on the dreaded NeoCons. As such, it is not helpful or useful.<BR/><BR/>This time, perhaps we can nominate and elect a principled conservative. On the other hand, it's far better to win with a flawed conservative than go down in flames with a perfect one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30462652.post-8891632175004093552007-08-06T09:07:00.000-04:002007-08-06T09:07:00.000-04:00BG, I think you're more like me:http://steveharkon...BG, I think you're more like me:<BR/><BR/>http://steveharkonnen.blogspot.com/2007/06/i-am-paleo-conservative.html<BR/><BR/>Neocons are, in fact, destroying the party!Steve Harkonnenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09497761866380334481noreply@blogger.com
