• ‘F***king Bulls**t’: Actor Jon Lovitz Doubles Down on His Anti-Obama Diatribe — ‘He’s President, Not King!’

  The guy’s instincts are there even if he is ignorant of the ideological differences. There is a 180 degree difference between Classical Liberalism (the liberalism of the Founding Fathers, e.g., free enterprise economy, property rights, limited government, liberty loving, firearms freedom, religious freedom, etc.), and contemporary liberalism. Contemporary liberalism is completely at odds with Madison and completely in line with Marx. Contemporary liberalism couldn’t exist in 1787 when the Constitution was drafted, for several reasons, not the least of which, Marx and Engels hadn’t written their manifesto yet. The two party’s who met at the Constitutional Convention to debate and draft the U.S. Constitution were the Federalists and the anti-Federalists. Extrapolated to today’s politics that would be the conservatives and the libertarians, respectively. In the end the Federalists won out. Although, the anti-Federalists insisted that a Bill of Rights be included as a requisite for their support. That was drafted subsequent to the Constitution. Madison argued that a Bill of Rights was unnecessary since the Federal Government had no more power than was specifically enumerated to it and all the rest (the bulk of the power) was vested in the states or the people. He further said that the inclusion of a Bill of Rights, since all rights could not be covered, might induce evil doers at some future date to hold that since a particular right wasn‘t among the one’s in the

  The Catholic religion is amonst the most moral in teaching, but its perishoners are not amongst the most adherents of religious teaching. Growing up I found what appeared to be an inclination for catholic girls to be most accommodating in helping a lad lose his virginity.

• Atheist Leader Cites Founding Fathers While Defending Demand for Removal of 10 Commandments in N.C.

  In reply to 5XDADDY.

  And this is really borne out in Alexis de Tocqueville’s Democracy in America.

  The Constitution was written for the sole purpose of setting up and limiting the power of the federal government. The Bill of Rights was written for assurance of certain basic rights of the people. The 9th and 10th Amendments in the Bill of Rights gives all rights not specifically enumerated to the federal government, to the states or the people.

  James Madison was against a Bill of Rights, because he said: since the whole purpose of the Constitution is to specify what power is given the government, it would be redundant, since all other power is reserved to the states or the people. Thus the 9th and 10th Amendments in the Bill of Rights to make this fact perfectly clear.

  First, the Founders wanted freedom OF religion, and they wanted the Government to stay out of religious affairs. This is brought forward with a reading of what the founders said and wrote over their lifetimes. Scholarship has determined that 34% of everything they wrote and spoke about over their lifetimes came from the Bible. The second most thing was John Locke at 8%.

  Second, the Founders gave very little power to the federal government (limited government), only that power that was specifically enumerated in the Constitution. The federal government does not have the constitutional authority to become involved in education. The system the Founders set down is called Federalism, and to become involved in education and many, many other things (that the fed gov have involved themselves in) is to usurp the power reserved in the Constitution (Bill of Rights, since the Constitution proper is about limiting the federal government) for the states or the people.

• Messiah College Professor: ‘Obama May Be the Most Explicitly Christian President in American History’

  A Christian communist….RIGHT!! In his two books, the only religion he showed any reverence for was the muslim religion. The only church he sat in in this country for any length of time was an American hating church with an American hating pastor. A Church that preached Black Liberation Theology, a quasi-religious afro-centric marxism.

  He stated in one of his books that when the crap hits the fan he stands with the muslims. He has stated that the U.S. is a muslim nation. He has stated that if it ever was, the U.S. is no longer a Christian nation. He, like all leftists despise Christianity and Jewry.
