		<description>&lt;p&gt;9/11 has shown the weakness in America’s Constitution. People really don’t have to follow it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thing is ALL documents about government are not really connected to people unless the people want to be connected to the ideas of a document like the U.S. Constitution.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The U.S. is now beginning to live much like the old Soviet Union.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Has anyone read the Constitution of the old Soviet Union? Oddly enough it is not a bad Constitution. Only problem was nobody wanted to actually follow the laws and ideas of the Soviet Constitution.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And that’s the rub…today half of America is not upset that the ‘elected’ officals are not bothering to follow the laws of the U.S. Constitution.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;America has already failed. The question is is America too far gone to recover and find enough people to want to follow the laws of the Constitution…or is it just too hard in today’s world?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Remember the October surprise, which, if I don’t miss my bet, will be a “terrorist” attack on the Congress (the king doesn’t need em anyway) and the beginning of Adolph Hitler (who was, by the way, elected) was the Reichstag fire (the Reichstag was Germany’s elected parliment)…….well, so anyone want to take bets?&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;It is high time for some truth.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Okay, here’s some: Netroots are a joke. Shoulda been marching instead of emailing. We’re cargo cult Constitutionalists:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;“Great work, soldier! How’d you take out that tank all by yourself!”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“It was easy, sir — I hit it with my blog.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s either bodies on the line or pray for a mid-Atlantic tsunami now. For the first time now, I’m afraid there won’t be elections in the fall. This thing is running like a train.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;This is nice…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.knx1070.com/pages/34518.php&quot;&gt;http://www.knx1070.com/pages/34518.php&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Fears have surfaced that as many as 200,000 AK-47s shipped by the U.S. to Iraqi security forces may have ended up in the hands of terrorists.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Northern Ireland newspaper The Daily Mirror reports the 99-ton cache of AK47s was supposed to have been secretly flown out from a U.S. base in Bosnia. But the four planeloads of arms have since vanished. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Orders for the deal originated with the U.S. Department of Defense. But the work was contracted out via a complex web of private arms traders. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And the Moldovan airline used to transport the shipment was criticized by the United Nations in 2003 for smuggling arms to Liberia, a fact uncovered by human rights group Amnesty International.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Amnesty chief spokesman Mike Blakemore said: “It’s unbelievable that no one can account for 200,000 assault rifles. If these weapons have gone missing it’s a terrifying prospect.” American defense chiefs hired an American firm to take the guns from the 90s Bosnian war, to Iraq. However, flights, which supposedly took off between July 2004 and July 2005 were not recorded by air traffic controllers in Baghdad.”&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;(Thanks for the link.)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The question to ask your elected officials:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;[Senator/Representive]: What is your plan to restore Constitutional government to the United States?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Because we sure God-of-your-choice don’t have it now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Gosh, this would be an awfully nice point for a “Contract with America,” wouldn’t it? Converted to a declarative statement, that is.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;p&gt;Called Sprint today to see if they are participating in the NSA telephone spying operation and when I stated my question, the operator informed my that I needed to stay on the line for one minute while they loaded a required “software update” to my phone and she was immediately cut off.  Way tinfoil hat. I hung up immediately and now am afraid to use my phone.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now I know what it was like to live in the Soviet Union.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Just finished calling and emailing my congressional rep. and my senators both locally and in D.C. telling them it’s time that Congress got off their asses and showed some effective outrage at this latest of the many breaches of law and the constitution by Mr. Bush and gang.  This story has been on the internet for months.  Why is it that USA Today holds so much credibility?  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Of course the story of the NSA spying on all Americans is just the tip of the iceberg on the Gonzales plan for ‘justice’ against the American people. The Bush administration always punishes it’s enemies, and surely with the polls where they are today, Bush is highly offended by 3/4 of American citizens who are ‘traitor’s to his mad designs.  Mr. Bush’s reassurance that it’s ‘legal’ for the NSA to spy on domestic calls is another way to break it to us easy that we’re living in a ‘legal’ police state.  You know….heat the lobsters slowly so they don’t panic and cause a boiling mess.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
