Comments for US Constitution: Amendment Proposal

An amendment to replace the States' influence in the federal government since the 17th Amendment was adopted.

BT: Please continue the Cliff notes for Little D. I try to read the complete article but have a short attention span. I have to read in 10 minute sessions. Probably my only learning disability. I have the Cliff notes for GS.

After reading this article numerous times, I find that it clearly delineates the problem with our current state of government. We the people have lost control of the Federal Government through either lack of attention or power grabs by both parties. It clearly points to why the Tea Party had and still has a strong base, not based on racism as Gene suggest but on authority usurped by the entrenched officials.

I had planned to attend the meeting, but rain was pouring and it was more important to begin my wife's birthday celebration of today with supper last night = crock pot of Gene Stew!

Ted McD --- have no fears when people don't answer. Diane puts it out and it doing more research than defending her stuff. Stan is having to actually do his sales and that is important.

I am having a good time and I how you and BT are as well . . .

Just got back from a meeting where I met the North Carolina GOP chairman and vice chairwoman. It was a good, substantive meeting. I took lots of pictures, and will write something as soon as I find time.

Oh, and, my good friend, Diane, was there. She has another in depth article at the ready. It's about the personal freedom components of the people's contract - the United States Constitution.

GS: You are shooting in the dark to find conservative Stan. Big Stan and Little D are not responding.

Little D: I just finished 10 minutes of Laptop research on Woman Suffrage 19th Amendment and the 18th Prohibition both starting in 1920. The 18th was repealed.
I guess the 19th is safe.

Actually, I love clowns and try to bring humor to my Sunday message. People remember funny stuff and too few preachers have a sense of humor ~~~ especially, the super-conservative ones!

The Clowns of Conservatism, however, do not amuse me. If Donald Trump lost his toupe in the middle of his stupidity, I would applaude!!!!

BT: Add GS to the FIRST TO ATTACK A CLOWN on your post. Also, first to attack more than 3 fellow BCN writers.

I don't know about the clown floating part but I know we are the best at car pooling.

I preach about God / preach about 20 minutes ~~~ therefore most are happy with me, BT!!! Some Sundays I quit after the first point if people look bored . . .

What is your excuse for the clown suit, man? How many to be chained to an engine block? Will a clown float no matter the amount of weight? Etc., Etc., Etc.

If we are to follow GS' reasoning, I suggest we also chain one preacher for each 12 lawyers to explain in endless sermons what took Jesus only 24 words to explain:
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. John 13:34King James Version (KJV)

I am sure another sermon is to follow.

Diane is a Lawyer and Billable Hours are part of the program---hence longer than necessary and full of babble to reach 5 pages!

This is typical Legislative-speak found in most State and National writing. Only one with a microscope could figure it out / then it is subject to endless debate before a Judge to figure out "exactly what it meant."

12 lawyers, each chained to an engine block and thrown in the middle of the Pamlico River = A DAMN GOOD START!!!

There is nothing wrong with being the minimalist.

I enjoy history and her writing style is beyond Olympic for me but something to be studied. Someday I will write more than an 80 word article. I have a degree from Southern Tech and a degree for Dekalb College. I refer to both as SMU (STone Mountain University). So she and I are good looking and smart. (JOKE).

Diane has a Masters in History, a masters in Molecular Biology and is a Juris Doctor.

She does her best to tell it straight.

Good looking SUVs in the background. I read the first page and await BTs Cliff notes.
(Joke). Seriously, great history lesson.
