One shoe never fits every foot. Let the states rule independently on all internal matters.

It is just another way to control THE PEOPLE and allow government to get into the personal affairs of everyone.

Buckley always had a long line for a simple meaning, but he was usually right in what he said.

Prohibition has never worked and it never will.

Lou and Reston, say hello to your fellow democrats at your Communist party meeting. Jim K, ya'll get Lloyd Dog-terd out of congress next week so he can be chairman of the communist party.

What he should have said instead of taking command.

Would any congressman or senator cut their own throat FOR THE PEOPLE???

Wow, Waffler got one right! Jefferson did say every 20 years the laws should be ripped up and done again. We could get rid of all the entitlements of the 20th century and have a small federal government now.

Do the math Waffler. Less government spending requires less taxation. So simple our government can't figure it out.

I have never voted for a lawyer to make laws or be governor or president, not even our two senators here in our state. I voted libertarian so I wouldn't have to vote for their democrat opponents. Lawyers have our judicial branch to themselves. They should not have the other two branches also in their power.

Jim K., you said it best. That is every bit true.

And to think our so called great Abraham Lincoln exchanged letters with him. Total federal control of our nation began in 1861.

Waffler, the government here began social insecurity for the purpose of having a cash cow so they could spend all the excess each year. Now the cow is milked dry and the well is empty.

We can only hope those we replace in congress next month won't be just different people-same situation.

Is there even one today with such power who would not abuse it?

DC has taken and reserved all power for itself. We need to observe the tenth ammendent of our constitution and give all power not in the first nine ammendents back to the states.

Strange to hear that from the extreme liberal-socialist he was.

Waffler would call this "social responsibility!"

A little thing such as Ron Paul asking voters to send a tea bag to democrat lawmakers has become a new beginning for americans.

I'm with you Jim K. I remember when Lyndown Johnson stopped the poll tax and literacy test so dumb ignorants could vote for him.

Anything the government touches-it ruins.

The 16th ammendment and civil rights laws have destroyed everything our forefathers stood for. The federal government is even in personal commerce now.

So many would sacrafice anyone else for their family, but rarely themselves.

The organized minority will always rule the unorganized majority.

Well said Jim K. I couldn't agree more.
