The federal government has gotten too big

Dear Editor:

 

The Federal government has gotten bigger than it needs to be to perform the three primary functions of making sure that we are able to feed, fuel, and defend ourselves.  The government has become so large that it “invites” our political parties to promote either corporate or government fascism.  Instead, we need a federal system that promotes a little more “individual” fascism while performing the three primary functions.

Howard, I know your refering to the Constiution, but it means nothing to “The Messiah” and his Chi-town MOB of HENCHMEN. They want total control over our lives and incomes, life and death.

Fuel and Feed? Where in the constitution does it say that someone has the right to have fuel or feed themselves? As the conservatives like to point out fuel and food are not constitutionally protected rights.

So either you are wrong about what the constitution provides or there are implied powers in the constitution. If there are implied powers, such has through that hateful “General Welfare” clause then the conservatives are wrong.

Notice he said PARTIES however you managed to whittle it down to one person and probably his supporters.

I wonder, sometimes, if all of these supposed Constitutional Originalist really know what it means to scrap the ‘General Welfare’ clause and the ‘Elastic Clause’.

“Fuel”??? Is he talking about the stuff you use in a Tiki Torch? Oh, oil, I get it, now.

I am not a member of either party, and never will be. I am a conservative, and I call em like I see em. The “The Messiah” and his Chi-town henchman are trying to lead us down a path of NO RETURN. Bush did his damage, but the damage that “The Messiah” is trying to inflict on us, is beyond compare.

With “Messiahcare”, covering abortion, and end of life consults starting at age 65, and NO transplants after the age of 60, and rationed care on the horizon, what will seniors have to look forward to? Not a damn thing, except a slow death with no quality of life.

They are trying to take over health care, like they have done with the cars companies and banking system.

So with the control of what we drive, how much money we can make, and a board in each state or DC, deciding who lives, what treatment, if any, and for how long, they will controling every aspect of our lives.

No thanks.

Miss Magnum,

If your life is so enveloped in fear, you have no quality of life. I really do think you have a pathological obsesssion with the president that could use some mental health treatment. No joke.

And as our President was actually a professor of constitutional law at one of the best schools in the country, he probably actually does care for the constitution, despite your delusion-soaked rants.

And you’re not a republican? Please. You’re the most republican nutjob on these boards. You can’t even get facts about yourself right. Why should we trust your opinion of anyone else?

If you would ever extract your head from your ass, get some fresh air and light, you might just see what is happening.

my idiot,

–You should go back into hiding, you are doing your “side” no good by attacking those who actually have a clue.

That means you can attack him, for he has never shown that he has a clue. Of course he has at least one perhaps two ego’s that he sends on vacation and he talks about hobbits. Yet he seems to believe that we should take him seriously.

Oh no, I’ve enticed the wrath of BOB…maybe I should go into hiding!
