Just a thought - I think this blog would be a lot more credible (and interesting) if you saved the politicking for someone else. Liberal propaganda in a blog? Who'd have thought?

Area Man Passionate Defender Of What He Imagines Constitution To Be

Spurred by an administration he believes to be guilty of numerous transgressions, self-described American patriot Kyle Mortensen, 47, is a vehement defender of ideas he seems to think are enshrined in the U.S. Constitution and principles that brave men have fought and died for solely in his head.

"Our very way of life is under siege," said Mortensen, whose understanding of the Constitution derives not from a close reading of the document but from talk-show pundits, books by television personalities, and the limitless expanse of his own colorful imagination.

Mortensen said his admiration for the loose assemblage of vague half-notions he calls the Constitution has only grown over time. He believes that each detail he has pulled from thin air—from prohibitions on sodomy and flag-burning, to mandatory crackdowns on immigrants, to the right of citizens not to have their hard-earned income confiscated in the form of taxes—has contributed to making it the best framework for governance "since the Ten Commandments."

"And let's not forget that when the Constitution was ratified it brought freedom to every single American," Mortensen said.

Mortensen's passion for safeguarding the elaborate fantasy world in which his conception of the Constitution resides is greatly respected by his likeminded friends and relatives, many of whom have been known to repeat his unfounded assertions verbatim when angered.

Mortensen told reporters that he'll fight until the bitter end for what he roughly supposes the Constitution to be. He acknowledged, however, that it might already be too late to win the battle.

"The freedoms our Founding Fathers spilled their blood for are vanishing before our eyes," Mortensen said. "In under a year, a fascist, socialist regime has turned a proud democracy into a totalitarian state that will soon control every facet of American life."

"Don't just take my word for it," Mortensen added. "Try reading a newspaper or watching the news sometime

So the government doesn't pay for the military that, at least in theory, protects our liberty from outside invaders? Could the conservatards trolling on this message board at least get their twisted facts and wacky ideologies straight?

"A whining fool shouting loudly for liberty but not willing to pay the bill."

Whoever wrote this has no idea what the word "liberty" means, has no knowledge of this country's founding, or is purposely trying to redefine both around a concept of liberty as something you have to "pay for" rather than something that the government does not give you and has no right to take away.

If you don't like it, that's your right, but at least keep the terminology straight.

"After most American workers saw more money in their paycheck due to the lower tax rate, the teabaggers at Fox News railed against high taxes, but did not discuss how much Jesus hated hypocrisy."

What brilliance! After taxes were lowered in 2001, it is hypocritical to EVER complain about high taxes again! Praise the State!

"Tea parties" are so hokie. As opposed to the oh-so-sophisticated, substantive, and cool-sounding rallies for "hope" and "we are the ones that we've been waiting for."

A whining fool shouting loudly for liberty but not willing to pay the bill.

"After most American workers saw more money in their paycheck due to the lower tax rate, the teabaggers at Fox News railed against high taxes, but did not discuss how much Jesus hated hypocrisy."

A conservative republican who protests against income taxes by rubbing their nutsacks in each other's faces.

"Senator David Vitter is a teabagger who wants to cut government programs during a recession."

2:00pm Is it really that open-and-shut? I would never do anything clearly illegal, but I will certainly hire the best tax lawyers and accts in the country to push the boundaries of the law, which is totally legit.

My point was that the previous poster shouldn't be so cocky about the current administration and the supposed shift to the Left. The country is fundamentally conservative.

Yeah, the DOJ is really scaring me. They totally botched the one prosecution they've had since the fncl crisis (see the Bear Sterns/ Cioffi case last week). Again, my fellow "anti-intellectuals" and i will simply hire firms like w&c to stomp all over your "formidable" doj and irs GWU grads. Or, more likely, I'll pay a small fine so the govt stops bothering me.

Is the tea-bagging meme really that funny? I thought it was sort of funny at first to go from 'Tea Parties' to 'Tea Baggers', but it's not particularly clever, and certainly isn't a substitute for an argument.

In history class, when you studied the Boston Tea Party, did you liberals giggle and snicker in the back of class?

Hey 12:03, you might want to wait a while before stashing your $$$ in those off-shore accounts, dirtbag.

The IRS and DOJ aren't what they used to be under the criminal Bush administration. Financial crimes are actually being prosecuted, not abetted, these days.
