Are We Smart Enough for Democracy?

That's why our government is a republic with constitutional checks and balances to, hopefully, keep the nitwits in check. Lately, the nitwits have been winning.

Seriously?

The Democrat Senatorial nominee in South Carolina has been asked to pull out of the race because he's been charged with a felony. The felony: showing pornographic pictures to a college student? Really? And they want him to withdraw? Seriously? Seems like he’d fit right in with the Washington crowd.

I suspect the statute he is in violation of is SCGS 16-15-305(A)(1) Disseminating, procuring or promoting obscenity.

Two Quotes Revisited...

America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards. - Claire Wolfe

With the forward movement of Health Care and the shenanigans it took to push it forward, its later than you think.

And...

No man's life, liberty, or property is safe, while Congress is in session. - Mark Twain

No further comment required.

I lied. Consider this a no confidence vote. Anyone who supported this travesty directly or indirectly needs to go. Kick those worthless bums in Congress to the fucking curb and start fresh with new elections. I don't care that their fucking terms aren't over. They've proven themselves either fools of enemies of the American people and the Constitution. They betrayed us and they have to go. Now. Midterm is too late.

Define coup please

I know I'm probably not as sharp as President Obama and his Sec State Hilliary but it seems to me that if a President is told by the Supreme Court of his country that something he wants to do is illegal and unconstitutional and he tries to do it anyway then in response the Court and Congress have him removed from office, that ain't a coup. That is the other coequal branches of government responding to a blatant power grab by a Chavez loving, scumbag emulating piece of trash. You're know by the trash you keep company with Prez.
