This kinda dovetails with one of Ace's posts.
An electronic archeological dig of the remains of the library at Alexandria has turned up this nugget:
the real news was Fund's report of a conversation he had with a Democratic consultant, whose name, he said, we'd all know. He didn't say the guy's name, but he said he had spoken to him in the green room during the taping of a recent show.After two Obama wins, the US is governable, right? Seriously, we can barely even nudge the chaos anymore.Fund asked what he thought of the election, and this man said, "Off the record, I think Kerry just might lose." But he then continued (paraphrased): "That doesn't mean it's over, though. Democrats will protest and fight so strongly that Bush won't have a win even if he wins. We will obstruct so much that this country will be ungovernable by Christmas."
People talk of a (passive) Let It Burn strategy, but it looks like the Democrats were prepared to, and based on the trajectory of the past 9+ years, actually did execute the (active) Burn It Down strategy of their own that consultant referred to...
...problem is, now that things are getting kinda toasty, they find its their guy in the Whitehouse taking the heat.

Exactly. I do not know what to make of much of my country and its inhabitants any more. I don't recognize many as my fellow Americans. And that's awful. And I don't know how to manage that other than keeping my head down.

Carville is honest about his intentions and methods. While I can't stand his stupid accent (sure...it's real....my ass!), he understands how our political process works and how it can be manipulated.
The Republicans don't have anyone like that since Breitbart died.

That's because they aren't. We're different nations, now, just nominally under the same central banner and giving lip service to the same polity. The once-United States are now like every other Empire in history; a conglomeration of rival tribes dominated by a cynical central power by virtue of their command of the army (which now includes the IRS, FBI, TSA, etc.).

******************************************
Around 1850, Bastiat wrote "The Law." One of his salient points is that when the law is allowed to be used as a means of plunder, there are only three possible end states: 1. The few use the law to plunder from the many; 2. The many use the law to plunder from the few; and 3. Everyone uses the law to plunder from everyone else. I think it's fair to say that we have arrived at all three end states simultaneously, fueled solely by the Fed's ability to print money. When that ends, things are going to get really interesting. Probably after 2017, because the Fed will print through the 2016 elections to hide the damage as much as possible and get Hillary elected.

Oh darn "gotta go"...
well I have other shit to do as well.
If you are a minority, white, male, female, who has in essence an unlimited budget and unlimited power because of the office you hold perhaps you should not be able to impact the economy you "serve"?
The Founders understood at their core that the franchise should belong to those who made the engine go.
I am certain had they seen women and minorities earn their way in they would have had no problem with their vote.
I am also certain they'd have been killing people if 95% of the civil service decided to play partisan games.

I think you're shooting at the wrong target..
Its not Federal employees, its Public Employee unions. For that matter, unions in general that are purchasing politicians despite, in many cases, what their members would prefer.
I did 22 years in the Air Force, both enlisted and officer; deployed countless times over Iraq and A-stan, was on the ground in Iraq for a year.
I chose to retire when BHO became President.
I now work in civil service, trying to ensure that the warriors that I support have the gear that they need to fight, against ever shrinking budgets, and bloated bureaucracies in the DoD that exist because we cant fire anyone.
I'm not going to pretend that I work in a coal mine. I get paid well, but my job SHOULD be important; as my decisions SHOULD have real impact on real warriors lives. I SHOULD NOT have to work with as many morons, slackers, cubitist hobbitis humanoids, and mouth breathers that I do. I could be waaay more effective if I did not.
I have never voted for anyone with a D behind their name. I have never voted for anyone who wouldn't identify their party. And many of those votes were cast absentee because I was deployed.
I have always (when able) owned my own home, and land.. (all you aviators check out MT95 ICAO-hee hee). I send my kids to public school (I do a lot of supplementing their education at home.)
Are you sure that its me that you think should NOT be allowed to vote?

**********************************
Bring back the militia. Most men are by statute a part of the unorganized militia of the United States, and also of their own states. The organized militia is the National Guard and various state guards, but there's no reason Constitutionally that a state could not require militia service of able-bodied men (with a few exceptions -- clergy etc.). As the Second Amendment notes, it's impossible to have a militia without firearms. We would be a more responsible citizenry if we were trained in the use of our own firearms in defense of the state and organized locally to carry out that defense against the marauding gangs from the cities on fire when the streams of refugees start filling the roads. Someone (state Adjutants General?) should start thinking about that now.

She operated out of an office not unlike Sauls. She wouldn't type a "." on a motion unless the clients paid upfront in cashy-cash or signed over their houses/cars/boats/etc.

I used to live in Wyoming, in Sheridan. Sheridan was the home of the Miss Native American pageant which is ironic in that it is named for Phillip Sheridan of "the only good Indian is a dead Indian" fame.

Bingo. In order to have as limited a government as possible, the people must be able to govern their own selves, and be willing to police their own behavior. This is not possible without a moral framework and a deep personal code of ethics, and a strong sense of personal responsibility. A recognition that for one to live well, one must operate within certain boundaries of behavior.

The archbishop denounced the health care law's unique secrecy provisions. "… Not only may pro-life people have a very limited choice of health plans that do not violate their consciences – but the law makes it all but impossible for them to find out which plans they are," he said.
Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, blasted [Sebelius] for pleading ignorance [about the plans]. "Are we really supposed to believe that one of the most zealous abortion supporters in the Obama administration doesn't know which plans cover the procedure she's spent so much of her career advocating?" asked Perkins in his "Washington Update."
"That a woman who fought for late-term abortions in Kansas (and threw a Governor's mansion party for the criminal performing them) would be in the dark after three years about whether the network she oversees is covering her pet cause? Give me a break," Perkins said.

Foxman, the ADL dude, is obviously pro-Israel. From his point of view, I'm sure he would have liked to see the U.S. eliminate the all muzzy-extremist threats from Iraq and A-stan, and fundamentally transform (in a good way!) those countries into peace-loving, non-goat-fcuking societies, that will at least tolerate Israel.
We didn't do all that, and we are leaving.
He is lamenting that.
That is all I took from it.
And finally, football and alcohol may help with that hypersensitivity thing.

"Forget his private life. Given his wartime activities abroad, including in the USSR, he would have a very hard time as an ordinary citizen getting a low-level security clearance. Yet he was elected over a WWII hero."
When it came out he was draft dodger, I thought Willy was done. I watched the 92' debates in a college dorm and during the second debate it was clear Bush senior simply gave up and looked perplexed how the media turned on him. Consider his approval rating after Desert Storm, me thinks he had a false sense of security going into the election.

The right to vote cannot be abridged by reasons of sex (amendment 19), race (amendment 15) or age above 18 (amendment 26) and there cannot be any poll taxes (amendment 24). Other than that, the only thing the Constitution says about voting is that if the number of voters is reduced the number of representatives is reduced by a proportional amount (amendment 18 paragraph 2). Otherwise, the right to vote is determined by the states.

Let's rock.
The founders said that at the time because of the social dynamic, and the true conservatives changed that dynamic. You need to update your argument. You want racism?
Ask yourself if black people are better off now than they were 6 years ago. Visit Chicago or Detroit (I recommend you wear body armor). Why? Ask yourself why?
Becuase people just love living in poverty? Uh, no. It's because of the cultural "you're doomed to fail" that's been fed to them from word go, emphasized by shitty teachers and corrupt politicians.
