Article V Convention Of States

[The T]

Our democracy is still very strong, but the voters are very lazy and uninvolved. That's no excuse for terrorism.

What 'terrorism'? WHAT are YOU talking about?

This may be the last chance to avert civil war, not North against South, but a real civil war that spreads all across the Country, Patriots against Tyrants.

Alabama Calls for "Convention of the States" to Stop Obama

what do you think?

I think you're an alarmist.

So was Thomas Pain, Patrick Henry, Paul Revere, Benjamin Franklin, Jefferson, Madison, Hamilton, and the rest of our Founding Fathers.

The Alarm is begging to be sounded. Anyone who is against an article V Convention is for the Tyranny our Government has become.
Obama didn't start this but he very likely committed the acts that tipped the scale.

Exactly. It gives the States and the PEOPLE a way to squelch the TYRANNY of the Imperial Federal Government.

 

[The T]

don't you mean rightwing wackjobs against normal people?

Whom are "NORMAL"? The Statists that are robbing POWER from the States, the PEOPLE? Moochers? DEFINE normal...if you DARE.

The power of the states was robbed during the Civil War.

Was it? I don't think so...THAT came into being under the Woodrow Wilson Administration with the 17th Amendment. Look it up.

Bush signed the PATRIOT Act and legalized torture. Teabagger Conservatives were all in love with that.

Why stop clamoring for the big government police state because a black Democrat is in power? He'll be out of office soon. It's all part of the plan, Republicans. The corrupt consolidation of wealth and power is going along just fine. This is what you want, isn't it? Or do you just want the corrupt consolidation of wealth, which you mistakenly call 'free-market capitalism'? What's it going to be? You loved Bush for the USAPATRIOT Act, but you hate Obama for renewing it? Bush set the timeline for withdrawal with Iraq, but you hate Obama for sticking to it? 95% of the financial gains since 2009 went to the rich 1% job creators, but you hate Obama because he's a Marxist Fascist Gay Liberal Whatever?

Look on the bright side, Republicans. If you keep cutting education funds and public assistance programs, eventually the majority of Americans might be as stupid as you and a Republican President will be elected again and then you'll have all of Obama's tyrannical powers to do God's Will.

You didn't oppose NSA spying during Bush's term. Also, there weren't any WMD in Iraq.

Actually I do know based on your post count, and reading your thoughts on any given issue. You loved Bush's big government patriotic hoo-rah gung-ho PATRIOT Act bullshit. All of you Conservative Republicans did. You LOVED it. You hated anyone who questioned it. You said that it was necessary to fight terrorists. You said, "There hasn't been another 9/11 since 9/11. Derp."

But now a black man is in charge and it's TYRANNY! Right, right-wing muppet? The NSA is evil now because a black man is in the White House. Ooooh! And he was born in Kenya! He hates America and he's going to take your guns any second now.

Or did you mean how I knew that there weren't any WMD in Iraq? That was on the news. Pretty much every channel including FOX. You should have heard about that by now.

Wmd's were never found. The whole reason for going into Iraq. How soon they forget.

And? WE are talking about WHAT? Article V...Yeah NSA is BAD...Obama has taken it down a road it shouldn't be...it shouldn't even exist...however back to Article V...And States asserting their authority?

Here is the full text of the resolution passed by Alabama’s House...

And each member who voted for this nonsense should be embarrassed.

It was the original intent of the Framers that the Federal Constitution, Federal laws, and the Federal courts be supreme. Residents of each state are first and foremost citizens of the United States, where a citizen’s relationship to his state of residence is secondary.

And it is the states that are more likely to violate the civil liberties of the American citizens who reside within them. Consequently, it’s a tragic irony to have one of the most repressive states in the Union, Alabama, with a long and shameful history of violating the civil rights of the citizens living in that state, to make reference to protecting “the liberty of our people,” when Alabama has in fact done no such thing.

I think it's weird how conservatives always want to change the constitution they say they love.

I think it's equally weird that the self-proclaimed uber patriots in this country are always threatening insurrection, secession,and/or a civil war unless they can get their way.

It's only slightly less weird that they embrace impeachment whenever a Democrat is in office, but the extraordinary measures inacted into law (like the Patriot Act) and the genearal expansion of presidential powers during the Bush years never raised much of an eyebrow except in small quarters of the Republican Party which were mostly ignored by most everyone else on the right who thought strong leadership was just swell as long as it was one of their own running the show.

 

[Kondor3]

A fresh Constitutional Convention?

An idea whose time has come?

Not so much to stop Obumble...

But to flush some of the filth down the Constitutional toilet.

No, there was nothing found of any kind. Curveball lied. He's admitted it on worldwide television. Look it up. Just type "Curveball lied" into any search engine.

Correct.

This is yet another manifestation of the conservative misery offensive, the right’s moronic effort to contrive a ‘gloom and doom’ America for some perceived political advantage.

There is no impending ‘civil war,’ it is partisan idiocy to refer to ‘stopping Obama,’ and there’s no justification for a ‘constitutional convention’ or to ‘rewrite’ the Constitution.
