The little mobs under the big tent as the godfather for justice...

"...AND UNDER THE JURISDICTION THEREOF..." is the ignored phrase of the Amendment. Pregnant trespassers cannot be said to be under the jurisdiction of the USA, quite the opposite: they live underground lives. The phrase was added to address Indians out west, who still regarded themselves as tribal members, and who weren't offered citizenship until the 1930s. Nothing impregnated in Mexico is permitted to degrade our civilization by the Constitution.

'like a starving goat'...eh, it ain't Raymond Chandler, but good. I've just returned Caro's 4th LBJ volume (thought it was 2 when I started) to the library, and now begin the long march to see if I live long enough to read the last one (I'm 60). Masses of little silent reading assignments were my pedagogy and my scores were high with my flatlander hispanic secondary stoonts. I took my cue from Stalin. When asked how he thought he could beat the Germans' high quality tanks with thousands of crude cheapies, he said, "Quantity has a quality all its own." If you teach English, think on that. Winds of War! Shelby Foote's Civil War! Master and Commander series!

The problem really is: where can you get real education? Liberal-run public schools experimenting yet again (project-based discovery learning in groups 24/7) are pure fraud. I'm a retired English teacher who's bitter as hell about the lost lives. Liberals: for what you've done to humanity in your grasping for power, you are evil.

I actually was a poll watcher out here in so cal. I'm finishing Caro's 3rd volume on LBJ: cheated on every election so far... no doubt the democrat machines in the urban centers are capable, willing and...whatever to cheat. As each democrat takes the oath of office swearing to uphold and defend, that democrat commits treason. But their push to buy the minority vote has paid off, along with dimwit products of the public schools. I say, let it go over. Either that, or we need a victorious general of color in a major theatre engagement in 3 years to return the White House to the Republicans.

I've read the argument that couching the war as a test of whether government by the people could long endure is nonsense. There were, and would be, others. The same author (Adams) says Lincoln asked 'What about my tariffs?" - that the north had enjoyed most of the tariffs since the 1820 compromise, including those collected at southern ports, so the south was going to be a 'free port' nation, to the destruction of the northern economy. Wow, huh?

You'd have to be feeble-minded to actually believe that made-up 'war on women' nonsense. Oh wait, we're talking about democrat women.

Thank god Commander in Chief Obama is on the job!

I've recently retired from public school secondary English teaching, and I wish every teacher read this. They go along like sheep. Only a kook speaks up in disagreement at meetings. You left out how your parents didn't send you there to become the teacher's helper, reteaching to the rocks in your group supposedly, because supposedly 'teaching it to someone else helps you learn it better.' Yep, that's right, folks. Teaching it to someone else helps you learn it better. And these people gurge up high emotion demanding more money for public education. Flame throwers at the ready!

hey-take a homo-bromo and chill out.
