Who better to inherit that title than this quintessential jester? The crocodile tears over "Mom" from someone who once delivered divorce papers to his wife while she was hospitalized with a life-threatening illness had me howling with laughter. As a voluntaryist/agorist I have foresworn the vice of voting, and I heartily revile the current Potus. But if Gingrich was the GOP nominee, I swear that I'd have to consider voting against him. Hopefully that destructive impulse would not get past the thinking stage, and fortunately, it appears that Gingrich may be too much for even the sheeple to swallow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-63644818324257250872012-01-27T16:11:44.108-07:002012-01-27T16:11:44.108-07:00Will, you wrote Santorum and Gingrich share a tota...Will, you wrote <i>Santorum and Gingrich share a totalitarian worldview: They assume that while nobody is virtuous enough to govern himself, they belong to a consecrated caste that is holy enough to rule over others.</i><br /><br />Where does that come from? What makes some people that way? During the illegal Constitutional Convention, Hamilton said, “All communities divide themselves into the few and the many. The first are the rich and well-born, the other the mass of the people…The people are turbulent and changing; they seldom judge or determine right. <b>Give, therefore, to the first class a distinct, permanent share in the government</b>. They will check the unsteadiness of the second… Their turbulent and uncontrolling disposition requires checks.”<br /><br />Hamilton was neither rich nor well–born, so how did he get in that class? Jefferson wrote that governments are instituted to protect our God-given “inalienable” rights, and Hamilton wrote that government is instituted because men will not conform to the dictates of reason and justice, without constraint. Did neither of them notice the elephant in the living room? Did they not notice that there were already governments in every state? And why were these God–given inalienable rights not discovered until the 13th century? And why can't I find them in the Bible? Rights really just make up the Golden Rule, don’t they? <br /><br />Santorum also said: <i>Ron Paul has a libertarian view of the Constitution. I do not. The Constitution has to be read in the context of another founding document, and that’s the Declaration of Independence. Our country never was a libertarian idea of radical individualism. We have certain <b>values</b> and principles that are embodied in our country. We have God-given rights.</i> <br /><br />He’s so stupid. The word “values” (as in “family values”) was not mentioned in the Constitution, the DOI, or the 85 Federalist papers, unless it was used as the value of silver or something. From Washington’s to Cleveland’s Inaugural addresses, 1789 to 1893, the word“values” are never mentioned. From McKinley’s to Bush’s Inaugural addresses, 1897 to 2004, the word“values” is mentioned 14 times, probably in its current meaning of “We have values which change daily.”<br /> <br />I’ve noticed in the Inaugural addresses that Washington and Adams did nothing much more than tell us what to do and what not to do. From GW’s Farewell Address: <i><b> RESPECT for its [ the Constitution] AUTHORITY, COMPLIANCE with its Laws, ACQUIESCENCE in its measures, are DUTIES enjoined by the fundamental maxims of true Liberty… But the Constitution which at any time exists, ’till changed by an explicit and authentic act of the whole People, is SACREDLY OBLIGATORY upon all. The very idea of the power and the right of the People to establish Government presupposes the DUTY of every individual to OBEY the established Government.</b></i>Yossariannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-52472384291548121962012-01-26T19:29:09.596-07:002012-01-26T19:29:09.596-07:00Thanks, Will Grigg, for making me hold my breath! ...Thanks, Will Grigg, for making me hold my breath! <br /><br />We are evolving though, right? <br /><br />Many thank yous for always teaching me a new word or two :).<br />Excellent marvelous breathtaking work.JJanehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03945177431650872323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-9291154399786445532012-01-26T15:19:21.196-07:002012-01-26T15:19:21.196-07:00Heil, Rick!Heil, Rick!Bobhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16565620274260288512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-27022133118264555942012-01-25T08:07:40.276-07:002012-01-25T08:07:40.276-07:00Excellent analysis as always, Grigg.

Newt, Santorum, and the rest of the neo-cons and libs think they are either being original and innovative, or following a tried and true pattern based on a false cinematic John Wayne USA ethos that does not exist in reality. But as Solomon said, there is nothing new under the sun, and they are merely repeating the same errors that have brought other nations down.Workingstiffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06704481541680166926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-60336874984880574402012-01-25T03:28:10.162-07:002012-01-25T03:28:10.162-07:00his name is Rick Sanitarium.his name is Rick Sanitarium.mark edward marchiafavanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-54347798147867686392012-01-22T14:52:02.382-07:002012-01-22T14:52:02.382-07:00Thanks for keepin it real for us regarding the ido...Thanks for keepin it real for us regarding the idolatry of state worship vs. the empowerment message of Ron Paul.

The man is yet another Trojan horse of deceit. And what gets me is that too many Americans are too stupid to think outside of the box. Their moral blinkers are kept very narrow to purposely lead them by the nose. That Christians pretend to follow the Prince of Peace and yet bellow for yet another King Saul is proof they are not what they claim to be and are in fact hypocritical tares amongst the wheat.MoThttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13996714804361467430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-9439608638662634022012-01-19T11:56:13.762-07:002012-01-19T11:56:13.762-07:00"According to Newt Gingrich...it is 'irra..."According to Newt Gingrich...it is 'irrational' of Paul to insist that there are limits on the government’s powers of discretionary killing."<br /><br />Actually, if you think about it, Gingrich is right. It is irrational to imagine the state will not kill.
