Hope many more in the art community will likewise stand up. Remember: every gov't promise of payment/benefit is a bribe.

That is a recipe for a really quick and chaotic end to the U.S. Fri, 10 Apr 2009 00:43:35 +0000 http://theglennbeck912project.com/?page_id=820#IDComment18463705 http://theglennbeck912project.com/?page_id=820#IDComment18463596 Oh yes, at least five more. I have a sneaking suspicion the leftists are logging in here masquerading as 9-12ers and seriously watering down the votes for the really meaty ideas. In fact it would shock me if they're not. Populism sucks. Why can't the Project just CHOOSE the best ones (the ones most in line with the Principles), instead of putting it up for a popular vote? That's what got us into this mess.

That could be used for mischief mayhem. Outdated, unnecessary, illogical are all subjective terms and we have pragmatists all over the spectrum of government now who would use that for doing some (more) real damage.

Ever since they first started talking about the film rights, I worried if they might be purchased and used for the sake of making a bad movie to discourage people from reading the book. You don't have to butcher the script to make a bad movie, especially from this book. Sorry, just skeptical about Hollywood sometimes.

"Rebalance education"??? How about get the fed out of education? "Language we can all understand"?? That is broader than an an elephant's butt and gets as much wiggle room. What happened to the 16th Amendment? The income tax is the fuel for the furnace that's consuming us and all you can do is complain about the pork? Come on! How about restoring Congress and THE PRESIDENT to their Constitutionally limited powers????? Sheesh.

My wish is a Constitutional Convention. We need to get government back under OUR control.

I would like to add that the single clearest indicator (besides the words with which the Founders saw fit to frame our Constitution) that this is not a "Christian" nation is the biblical admonishment to obey your rulers. We had a little thing called the Revolutionary war that kinda didn't follow that.

Murder is wrong because it is an act of violence upon another human being. The nature of man as a rational being requires that reason, not force, be the arbiter of disputes. The good is what serves man's nature, the evil is what goes against it.

There is nothing in our Constitution about "fertilization".

The free market stands in the way of his "vision" and must be destroyed. To the "pragmatist" (as David Axelrod recently described him), nothing is off the table that "works" toward getting what you want.

Then Nancy Pelosi. We're screwed without something like a Constitutional Convention.

If you do not have a party it doesn't concern you? The parties are the problem! It concerns me greatly to have the best available to vote for! Eliminate the party designation from the ballot altogether.

The power to tax, as we are now seeing, is the power to destroy. Single-issue legislation, no amending existing law by amending other bills. No amending laws by reference only - spell out what exactly is being changed - from and to.

Let them pay out of their own salaries!

You really want New York and California running things?

Giving legal status to fertilized eggs is tyranny over women. If you accept statism in the most intimate decisions a woman makes about her own life, no other area of life is safe from statism, and your "pro-life" stance becomes a misnomer.
