This is what a REAL constitutionalist sounds like

This is a rousing article for any who feel like our country is in its death throes. This man ought to run on a ticket with Dr. Ben Carson. That would turn the RINOS on their heads and show who is really for the federalist government our constitution represents. And that our founders put their lives and fortunes on the line for.

    The Constitution is founded on and interpreted by the principle of equally endowed rights. All politicians who have supported special/superior rights for the elite, the banksters, crony fascist big businesses and special interest groups, must be removed from office at the least and prosecuted for failing to defend the Constitution at the most. We need to wipe the Federal Register and record of congressional legislation clean like a computer hard drive and reinstall the operating system, the Declaration of Independence/U.S. Constitution.

    Good find, NMA.
    Dryer - Another actor who I'd like to see in ASp3.

    I too blame *much* of what is wrong in the GOP to "Daddy Bush".
    I often take heat for it, but I believe that until the GOP tosses GHWB and his people as king makers, we as a people will continue to lose.

      He'd be good. And you are sooo right! The whole Tea Party bashing comes from fear of exposure. The lies and back door deals will be hit with a floodlight, and the rats are going to scurry off to find another sewer. They need to be exterminated, or, in this case, run out of office on rails.

    And yet, Tea Party activists say that they ADMIRE President Bush. "Dryer blasted the "neocons" aligned with President George H.W. Bush, whom he accused of undermining everything Reagan was trying to accomplish."

      I think that you paint the Tea Party with too broad a brush. I don't think that many of them have seen a good R in quite a long time, and the last good R president was RR. I think that is a common concurrence across most TP groups that I've had contact with.

    I found it to be very poor article. No specifics. And the anti-immigration sentiment in the tea party has NO basis in constitutionality, those folks are just screaming protectionists. Also, I would think for most objectivists the many religious aspects of the Tea Party are quite objectionable, such controlling tendencies have zero room in a free society.

      I would not say it was a poor article. The guy is an actor expressing a sentiment few in Hollywood have the guts to say. What religious aspect of the Tea Party? Our local Tea Party stands for freedom of religion, or freedom to practice it or not. This is at odds with the government view that we must have freedom from religion, unless it is Muslim or some religion which originated in the 60s. Muslims can take over streets and worship in the US, yet in the West, some folks cannot even hold bible study in their homes, as it is offensive to neighbors. As to the elder Bush, I have not heard our Tea Party mention him, it is usually Reagan. Most of us know Bush is a one worlder who is now into cornering the market on groundwater in Central America, which he expects to make him more money than oil.

      Make up your mind. Illegals are feeding off the freebies in this country...how is THAT good for a free society?

        Completely consistent. My statements are: Immigration of anyone wishing to be a value added member of society should not be illegal, what is more is that if we can restrict "rights" to freebies like income, healthcare, etc., then we should have a completely open border. Tea Party wants a completely "secure" border and wants to deny citizenship to even hard working, productive illegals. Both are anti-objectvist policies.

          I have no problem with people immigrating LEGALLY. What I find objectionable is paying for the freebies for ILLEGALS. They are taking jobs away from those who are here legally, or are already US citizens by birth.

            I agree with enforcing the immigration laws, but your language suggests there is a limited number of jobs and not enough to go around, so we must ration them to our citizens. In reality, jobs are just people finding someone's need and fulfilling it for money. There's a potentially infinite number of jobs.

            The US is an idea and anyone who comes here who wants to share that idea should be welcomed with open arms and open borders, and if they're willing to work harder and add more value than other people, they should get the jobs, and we should cheer them on - that's Objectivism.

            I have a problem with any illegal, as whether they are getting government handouts or not, they are here illegally, and if working, are occupying a job that could be held by a legal resident/citizen.

              Which is where you are in terrible error. You are confused that illegal is wrong. the heroes in Atlas Shrugged all broke the law, because the objective of the moochers is to make us all break the law by doing what is right, and thereby they gain control of us using the force of the government. Do you really think that ObamaCare is a good law that people shouldn't break if we could? Everyone in Atlas Shrugged who quit their jobs, after 10-289 made them slaves, were law breakers, and you think therefore we should pack them off into prison because they are "illegals"?

              And "Open boarders = no nation" may take the prize for being the stupidest thing I've seen on this website. That is one of those stupid things the Tea Party believes. You are saying that prior to the 1920's we weren't a nation, and even more, a nation with an already distinctive flair for liberty and individuality?

              The US is an idea and anyone who comes here who wants to share that idea should be welcomed with open arms and open borders, and if they're willing to work harder and add more value than other people and they should get the jobs - that's Objectivism.

                Fine, as long as they do so legally. Welcome them and their ideas! Hooray. But my family came here with their ideas, but also legally. And they loved it. And made something of themselves.
                Now to your saying that all the characters in AS broke the law. Yes. They did. Because their ideas and life's work were getting bludgeoned by moochers who wanted a free ride, and looters who wanted something they hadn't earned. Illegal immigrants didn't play into the picture.

                You seem to think that all laws are the same. I do not. I do believe that the only way to define a nation is to have mechanisms to control migration. In the past this was accomplished more by the difficulty of migration and the lack of migratory inclination. That is no longer the case. If the borders allow free movement with no restriction nor consequence, then there is no nation. And to say that that is stupid merely points out how ignorant you really are.

                  ouch! I am so in awe of your arguments. I can see why there are no States anymore in the US with free migration and no real consequences. oh wait there are states and they do function! I also see why the European nations have disappeared now that movement in between them has no real consequences either.

                  and you should search YouTube for Milton Friedman talking about immigration, and why, absent the welfare state, free immigration would be the best policy. but I presume you're quite a bit smarter than Milton Friedman.

      I live here I am trying to find a job here, I can't find a job, it's math. The constitution provides a means for bills to be signed into law. The laws are supposed to be enforced.
