I also think that people have forgo...I do too, Lee. I also think that people have forgotten that our Constitution is not a static document, it is a Living Document. If that were not the case we could still have slavery and women wouldn't be able to vote, to name just 2 amendments. If the Constitution cannot be allowed to adapt/change with the times, then it becomes stagnate and looses it's strength, meaning, and resiliency. After all, if we don't like a constitutional law (Prohibition, the 18th Amendment) we can always repeal it (the 21st Amendment). It's not that big a deal if we really want it changed. But I think politicians would have us believe it's too complicated and too long a process to contemplate.Bish Denhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13359927719391990534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433839509609523237.post-30118803419471109012019-07-03T21:23:29.759-05:002019-07-03T21:23:29.759-05:00Oh, Bish, you have really reminded us of something...Oh, Bish, you have really reminded us of something here. Our country is in terrible danger, and if we don't recognize those dangers, our children are going to suffer greatly. We should all go back our Constitution, our Bill of Rights. We should all familiarize ourselves with the Federalist Papers. We've strayed a long way from the principles that have given us our freedom. This is a non-partisan comment BTW. I blame both sides equally.cleemckenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15456109243453726483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433839509609523237.post-50522477467820587732019-07-03T17:14:57.884-05:002019-07-03T17:14:57.884-05:00Some great words.

As vitriolic as it gets between Democrats and Republicans, I still think it's a good thing we have two parties providing checks and balances. I also think the vitriol is long-standing--we just hear about it more today in our media frenzy culture.<br /><br />What a wonderful collection of quotes. I also love the Bombeck and Voltaire quotes.Jennifer Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13300124780126853962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8433839509609523237.post-12998688779706572019-07-03T13:05:50.237-05:002019-07-03T13:05:50.237-05:00John Adams saw it coming.
