Random Thursday-ness

(Hat Tip - To my friend Jeff)
I really got nothing to add either...it makes some sense.
I really don't care whether he is a Muslim, anti-Christ, the color of his skin or where he was born. I disagree...vehemently...with his idea on the role of our government. The Constitution was written as an instrument to LIMIT the powers of the federal government. Either the Constitution says what it says or it doesn't. if it does, then it is the law of the land and should be followed. If it doesn't then it is meaningless and carries no power over our lives whatsoever. If you are able to re-write it on a whim...or when a guy in a black robe says you can...then it is simply a piece of yellowed paper that can be written over at the whim of the elected officials instead of the electorate.
Can we agree that we need at least a modicum of OBJECTIVITY in what is the role of government? For if there is not any objectivity, how does that differ from anarchy? For without that objectivity we are sinmply a country run on the whim of the latest elected leader. That is no different than being under the rule of a king, imo.
I really do not care WHO you marry; If Christians are SO offended by two men or two women marrying then let's discuss judgement, forgiveness, grace and God's love. I do not believe God to be hell bent on punishment...other than for Fred Phelps (I am only illustrating absurdity by using absurdity). He repulses me but he has every right to say what he says just as Rosie O'Donnell can call us heterosexuals homophobes.
Get the government out of our way, allow the workers to KEEP what the earn...minus an amount to pay for the services of government as outlined in the Constitution...and watch this country flourish. Freedom and independence has worked EVERY time it has been tried.
The next candidate who stands up, stands by that, sells that...and does not cave...to the American people will, in my opinion, win an election by a landslide.
