Better late than never. 1) Only disagreement we have here is I FIRMLY believe in the need for Term Limits. Think about this. You want an Obama,TOTUS for life? Hillary,having Broomstick 1 for life? McCain? NO THANKS. Besides, the longer they are in there,the more corrupt they become. It all goes back to the notion of HONORABLE people winning these high offices. Ain't happening,at least not in my lifetime. Hopefully,it WILL be in yours.2)No question,Soros owns'em all,top to bottom. Look no farther than the list that is KNOWN about the causes he supports. The WORST thing about Soros is,he ain't OURS!! I don't like this man's politics,nor how he makes a vast sum of his fortune,that by currency manipulation, but DO have respect for the way he puts his money where his mouth is.3)While Obama most definitely is cramming as much in as quickly as he can, knowing his time to do so is limited,he isn't the first to go WAY outside the Constitution. Chrysler should NEVER have been given a gov't loan of ANY type,nor should ANY other entity. Not too many recent presidents have gone strictly "by the book" as it were. cont'd

cont'd 4) Not much here to disagree with. IMHO,2010 is the GOP's do or die year. To this point I see NOTHING that leads me to believe they have learned a damn thing from '06,nor '08.I will tell you this much,were I to win Powerball,or some other obscene amount of money,I would NOT HESITATE to help fund something like the ATP. Kinda like the Soros of the right,eh? lol. 5) Yeah,and click your heels together 3 times as well. I am puzzled as to why the various state gov's,and A.G.'s have not started filing 10th Amendment suits. Too afraid of losing existing Fed funding I suppose. 6) CK,to close this out,I believe the ONLY way we can win this battle we find ourselves in is solely through winning the EDUCATIONAL battles.The Constitution,the Federalists,everything that went into the founding of our great nation has to be taught as it happened,not as the liberals would like to think it did.This is where we either win or lose.YOU and what you have done here,will go a LONG way in how this battle turns out. The more of your generation looking at this the way you have here CAN turn the tide,as far as I'm concerned. CK,I must say this series has been quite enjoyable to go through with you. Thanks for allowing me to be a small part of it.Well done,my friend.

I understand why you would want term limits as I am kinda waffling on it myself, but since I am waffling, I am against putting in the law. I look to the second term of Bush and think it he had been able to run for a third term. He let his last 2 years just slide by it seemed and gave into the liberals a bit, in what I think was an attempt to help the Republicans win the next election. Bush may not have let those things slide, but pushed for things that would strength our country making it easier for him to get elected again. Hamilton makes a similar point in one of the papers about a person that has nothing to lose anymore. He cannot get re-elected, so he simply does whatever he wants whether detrimental or not. Even though the people are not as trustworthy as they should be, I think we should still lay our power at their feet.
Beck's program today was all about the history of progressivism in America. Teddy started it, Wilson enhanced on it, FDR went all the way, and even though Beck didn't get to him LBJ expanded it. Obama has most certainly not been the first.
The educational battle is essential. Teachers need to start getting the children to read all kinds of writings and debating in class. It helps with comprehension that is badly needed. The unions won't go for that as a whole and that will never happen in the public school system.
Thanks for reading each day as well. It helps give me incentive to do a thorough job while going through it. Reading these has gotten my reading streak going again. I used to read quite a lot, but recently I had gotten busy. I decided that I would continue reading something during the same time I read these papers. Ill keep putting things up on here, though it won't be everyday, but a couple times a week or so. Researching topics now instead of comprehending a single paper.
