I'm not a 'party first, country second' kind of guy.

I didn't figure you'd understand.

right.....

how exactly am i a party first country second dude?

You give me a headache Dewmie

right on

All I can tell you is I'm a work first, party after kinda guy. I even fish once in a while

Can we democratically vote away Dewbie's right to a refresh button?

oh no, someone has a different opinion....we better silence him!

You have an opinion? Where?

as DANS so eloquently stated before...."thats weak sauce" is that the best you got? what is it with today? pick on dewbie day? obama is a piece of crap...theres an opinion for you.

dewbie,

Obama may not be able to work miracles on our economic crisis, and if so, it's likely that no one else could either. But I feel better every day knowing the GW isn't the US president any more.

You're welcome to your opinion, but can you answer: who would be a better president, and what would he or she do that would be more effective than what Obama's done?

Sg

Ron Paul would be a better president because he is for small government. Bush failed because he was pushing big government....Obama will fail even worse because he is pushing even bigger government. what i mean by this, is the government needs to keep their damn hands out of everything and let bad businesses fail, good businesses prosper.

Also, buy low, sell high. That doesn't mean sell stoned. Sorry Dewb, I lack impulse control sometimes on internet fishing boards

speaking of sell stoned.....i just got this sh!t called Train wreck....damn its good!

i feel the 17th amendment gives more power to the government...obviously i dont like more government control....

Unfortunately, we are only offered turds or pigs with lipstick to vote for, or in our case, the terminator.

PS the terminator is our gov. not a senator, but still a turd like our other choices

which means that the power goes federal rather then in the state, which is more government control. i would rather keep the power in the state.

Dewb-

we the people are "the electorate" - that stuff is train wrecking your brain!

keeping the power in the state, keeps the government small. but, when you branch out from there people who shouldnt have a say get one....to me that doesnt make sense.

Repeal The 17th Amendment

Posted December 19th, 2007 by SeanW

ANOTHER reason to vote for Ron Paul. And, if you understand it, a good argument to provide your friends.

Originally all Senators were elected by each State's elected officials. United States Senators were accountable to the State Governments that elected them and sent them to Washington to represent them. But the 17th Amendment changed that. Now, as we know, Senators are elected by popular vote. They no longer must answer to their own state government. And they have FAR too much power because of it.

Dr Paul, along with a few others such as Zell Miller, Alan Keyes, Harry Brown, Lew Rockwell and Neil Boortz, have advocated the repeal of the 17th Amendment for a long time.

Zell Miller introduced a constitutional amendment, just after announcing his retirement, to repeal the 17th Amendment, saying, "it gives too much power to Washington's special interests and it's an attack on federalism."

Whether Ron Paul gets elected or not, it's THESE issues that THIS MOVEMENT was born for...
