HAPPY CONSTITUTION DAY!
How many of you know that the founding fathers were very explicit that the Federal Government's powers are FEW and DEFINED?
Seems we may have jumped the rails some in that department.
How many of you know that "if any statement, within any law, which is passed, is unconstitutional, the whole law is unconstitutional" (Marbury v. Madison 5 us 137,1803)
How many illegal laws do you think there are?
"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free... It expects what never was and never will be." Thomas Jefferson
That has turned out more then a little prophetic.
"Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
John Adams
Another solid bull’s-eye.
“It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by God's children; not on religions, put on the Gospel of Jesus Christ. For this very reason people of other faiths have been afforded a Asylum, prosperity, and freedom of worship here".
Patrick Henry
How many of you know that the phrase "separation of church and state" does not appear in the Constitution?
How many know that the founding fathers would find the redefinition of the First Amendment (that prohibits the free expression of religious beliefs and practices in public schools and public settings) offencive and a clear violation of the Constitution?
And finally, what part of "the RIGHT of the people to OWN and BEAR Arms shall NOT be infringed" is ambiguous and hard to understand?
Turns out that when our intellectual and legal elites are stumped by the meaning of this simple proposition, they will be equally stumped by nearly any simple question like, what is a woman?
I believe it is an arguable historical fact that our Founding Fathers created the best man-made document when they formed the Constitution. And I would suggest that it would show wisdom on our part if we do everything in our power to preserve it and the blessings it secures for its people.
