Marcus Tullius (no, the other Marcus Tullius):

I do not plan to help Ron Paul make political points. Imo, the Majority needs to put forward a bill proposing essentially the same thing. Couple of reasons why.

First, it denies R’s the ability to say that they are the party advocating a restoration of the rule of law. I aim to kill their party, and helping R sponsored bills pass is not on my list of shit to do right now.

Second, it requires any R that would support to vote against his/her party, and his/her president. That’s helpful because it further splinters their party, and it weakens the president.

So, to my mind, the only solution is a Dem sponsored bill. And they need to propose one, imo.

wardlow:

As a friend said to me earlier today, we don’t want Republicans to pick up the mantle of the Constitutuion and rule of law and leave Dems in the dust without our equaling or surpassing their effort to get our Constitution back in one piece.

eugene:

I would prefer that Democrats promote this kind of bill, instead of that wackjob Ron Paul, who wishes to destroy our Constitution, not save it.

Fuck yeah. Fuck Ron Paul!

We really want to restore the Constitution, we do. But it’s just not worth it if it means we have to agree with a Repuglican.
