They've been busy ignoring so many other Amendments and Clauses, why not specifically-protected free speech as well? And while they're at it, that "Neither House shall adjourn for more than Three Days during Session" clause has strutted about for far too long!

Today, I confront enslavers who dwarf your agricultural age. Men who manipulate markets for their benefit, who control all the productive capacity, who leverage world currencies and gamble on usury, and refuse to recognize the right of the average man to the return of his own labor, honestly determined.

That is true, except for the "confront" part. Obama EMPLOYS them, not CONFRONTS them. Everything on your list is his described domestic policy. But otherwise, yeah, excellent post.

Wars for slavery - why, whom do we own?
Mingling Church and State - the churchiest Statists among us are all on the hard Left, including the two nitwits who wanted to legislate the composition of Roman Catholic church boards to exclude their pastors and bishops.
Wars of aggression in foreign lands - Jefferson firing up the Navy and the Marines against the Barbary Pirates? Or maybe invading Nazi Europe, which hadn't done a little ol' thing to us?
Corporatist government policies - again, that is the Left. It is Dear Leader Obama who is dictating by fiat the policies and leadership of GM and Chrysler, and his pet Congress deliberating a Bill of Attainder (in defiance of the Constitution) against AIG. Of course, that's what happens when the State takes over the ownership of formerly-private companies.

If they pass the mandatory volunteerism and the paramilitary domestic force, then your dire predictions will have been made true entirely by the incoming administration in the past 75 days.

My big problem with this isn't season so much the PSAs. They're annoying but they 're also avoidable. They're probably also part of the contract for the actors; like it or not they have got to read the stupid things. The real annoyance here is having the Big Bad as a rogue military contractor. We started with actual terrorists doing actual evil in the world and ended up with them merely as puppets for the evil conservatives. Blackwater is such an obvious stand-in for Halliburton that I'm surprised there aren't pictures of Dick Cheney in every office.

[spoiler alert!]

They tracked him via a helicopter. It would have been really tough to make his rendesvouz anyway, even with the two minutes that he stopped. He would have also exposed thousands to a biological weapon en route had he not stopped.

Amazing story. I am grateful that your family survived unhurt.

Part of the reason you rarely see this sort of thing on television is that it usually isn't "entertainment" material. This goes all the way back to Sherlock Holmes: it is the unusual crimes with strange details that fascinate, not the mundane ones. Holmes often would hassle Watson, in fact, for turning his brilliant deductions into a "series of tales" meant to entertain rather than treatises on the science of deduction.

Another part of the reason is that it's a little close to home to protray the kind of horror some people face everyday from gangs and drug violence. Parents see enough of the things that destroy their neighborhood and cripple or kill their children, they hardly need a dramatization of them.

Or, the overgrown child Stuart from MadTV... which is sadly how the kid may wind up.

Well, "Verb: That's What's Happening" and "Sufferin' 'til Sufferage" were fairly rocking in a dated 70's funk style.

Respectfully disagree. If it was fun who cared? Give me Schoolhouse Rock over Scrappy Doo any day of the week, and twice on Saturday.
