What, no Constitutional Crisis or calls for impeachment?

[quote=pri_dk][quote=Djshakes]I am unable to see youtube at work…but let me guess..this is about the founding forebearers (the liberals love quoting her as saying founding forefathers instead) and their quest to end slavery?[/quote]

Yeah, “forebearers” is not the same as “forefathers.” – and that’s really important!

The video is the the “extended” version. I actually found it painful to watch.

The part about the “eye” on the dollar bill was particularly bizarre.

So Michelle is your new gal, eh? I thought Sarah was prettier, but it’s not all about looks. Brains matter too. Christina was cute – whatever happened to her?[/quote]

I heard bits and pieces of it. Basically where Chris Matthews played snipets of her and made himself look extremely ignornant trying to flame her and proving he knows nothing about the 3/5 clause in the constitution. I didn’t care enough to watch the whole interview. I’m not a fan of politicians on either side of the isle.

Half of you are forgetting that the United States didn’t become the United States until 1776. Prior to that we were under Britain’s rule. The first English colony to import a slave was Virginia in 1619. The constitution eradicated slavery in 1865. So if you look at it from the fact that slaves were on this continent for 246 years or under United states rule for 89 years is a drop in the pot seeing as how slaves existed since the beginning of time! So if you want to ignore these facts and blatant works of our early politicians to end slavery with an amendment to the constitution which influenced other countries around the world to do the same because of semantics and a political slant because someone on the other side of the isle acknowledge it, you are an idiot. Why don’t you just spit on the flag if you want to ignore what this great country did to end slavery here and around the world. It wasn’t a coincidence slavery greatly decreased worldwide after the United States set a precedence. That is the point she was making. Yet we bog down progress with slapping matches about semantics and slight slip ups. This goes for both sides of the political spectrum. I would like to see anyone of you extremely articulate individuals be in the lime light day in day out and not slip up…especially when people are looking for it.

I bet you get a lot of comments. It is a really nice piece of art and I like the way you can zoom in and read about each person. The artist put a lot of thought into it.

[quote=briansd1]Conservative conveniently fail to mention the Necessary And Proper clause of the Constitution.

Let’s see what the Supreme Court rules. I’m confident that it will side with Obama Administration (like the Supreme Court sided with FDR).

Was FDR threatening to increase the seats on the court?

It all comes down to what you put your faith in. It also comes down to how connected you are to it. What I mean by this is that there are people who say they believe in something. A time comes when that belief is tested and you find that most people do not actually believe in what they say they believe in. They immediately fall back upon trying to work it out according to personal knowledge and their wits. Beliefs are as easy to state as ordering from a restaurant menu. Lip service seems to be the order of the day. Soon everyone is going to find out just what this means.

A lot of truth in this. I wish we (Americans in general) had more clarity as to what we are discussing, supporting, voting for, etc. I see far to many, on this board as well, who purport to support one set of principles yet vote for another. And I suspect they don’t have any clue that they’re being contradictory.
