Resolve to Remember

Uncle $cam has a good list.

I resolve to remember:

1. In America, we elect Representatives not leaders or kings
2. Corporations are not living breathing natural persons and thus should never enjoy Constitutional rights as persons.
3. The first ten amendments of the Constitution of the United States (also known as the Bill rights) are not amendable.
4. Taxes collected and then spent against the will of the people constitutes taxation without representation.
5. The Constitution of the United States of America contains no language declaring America "Policeman to the world".
6. True American Patriots support and defend the United States Constitution NOT a political party or even FOX news.
7. Defending the United States Constitution is not a criminal terrorist act regardless of any legalese contained in the Patriot Act.
8. A fascist government by definition cannot enact the will of the people.
9. If George Bush could become President ANYONE of us could also be President.
10. Electing lawyers to serve in congress is akin to appointing Mark Foley Boy Scout Troop leader.
11. The original intent of the FCC was to prevent monopolization of the air waves, not to squelch free speech or hide Janet Jackson's nipples.
12. Jesus is not a republican.
13. Jesus is GW Bush's favorite philosopher not his God.
14. Statutory law often runs ruff-shod over the United States Constitution.
15. There is no measurable difference between Republicans and Democrats.


Items #13 and 15 can be argued.

No, I don't disagree with the gist of #13, the man who gave the Sermon on the Mount is not Bu$hie's God. Bu$hie's God presents to the President more like but in reality looks more like But to have a philosophy you have to, you know, think about the words.

Finally, regarding #15: there is the difference between bad and worse, which is always sharper than between good and better.
