Forty-six Democrat Senators Want to Change our Laws Strictly for Politics



Forty-six Democrat Senators Want to Change our Laws for Strictly Politics
The impossible just got legs for a potential possibility; and not a good one at that. In a bare-faced political move, forty-six elected Democrats in our United States Senate; that's EIGHTY-SEVEN PERCENT of all Democrats, are willing to make a change to our most predominant, most revered and oldest established legal document, the United States Constitution, all for their desire for more political power in our government.
These self-loathing discriminators, just for personal gain, would change the most important document in the American arsenal of judicial decrees, destroying any and all credence in the minds of the American people. They would ban free speech for Americans if they chose not to like it. No political discourse would ever reach our newspapers or airwaves if those Democrats chose to block it. Two sides to every political discussion would be gone forever if banned by our Constitution as the Democrats are successful in their banning efforts. This is brazen and unmitigated impudence and gall. Has God suddenly decreed that ONLY discourse spoken by Democrats can be aired or printed? If this Democrat proposed constitutional amendment is passed we would only be allowed to hear THEIR side of any political discussion. How kingly, or dictatorially decadent can we sink to? My thoughts at this point are that perhaps we the people, currently unburdened by filthy and arrogant legislation that would, in effect, put one class of people, namely those of the Democrat Party who would deny the rest of the Americans the joy of unrestrained free political speech, honor the balance of people and country caring elected United States Senators, numbering NINE of that group of 55 in total. They are the only true American believers holding office in the United States Senate. Not only would these forty-six cretins so greed inspired with possessive insanity destroy the freedom of speech rights for ALL Americans, but their actions, if successful, would backfire on them should the balance of power tip back to the other party. A move such as this, even if successful, could not be durable and any mood swings could turn their joy into deep sorrow quite rapidly.

This movement of desperation shows how unsure the Democrat Party is of providing leadership. That thought is understandable with feeble minds such as Obama, Biden, Reid, Pelosi, Gore, the Clintons, Rangel, Lewis, etc. and multitudes more standing in the wings. They are blessed by having huge followings of people of similar mental deficiencies and expert practioners at the sleazy art of multi-voting and machine rigging. This new scheme of underhanded manipulation of freedom of speech, so very common in socio-communist and enslaved peoples countries, is nothing more that a grand grab at power over minorities. America's days of slavery was legislated to an end by a Republican President, Abraham Lincoln, a century and one-half ago. Preventing freedom of speech is as much, if not more than hand-and-leg shackles on the minorities. A bright new light in the Republican Party, a freshman Senator from Texas named Ted Cruz has made this public on July 14, 2014, on Patriot Action Network, as a nefarious liberal Democrat plot against a party lacking a mere six votes to change the fortunes in the coming November elections. When good people everywhere see the deviousness of this liberal Democrat stunt, they will see the un-American unfairness and deceit and stop it in its tracks. Cruz, in shooting the plan down, says, "I have three questions for my Democratic colleagues in the Senate: Should Congress be able to ban books? Should Congress be able to ban films? Should Congress be able to ban groups such as the NAACP, the National Rifle Association and the Sierra Club from speaking?" He opines that "the answers should unequivocally, be 'no.' But, sadly, 46 Democrats in the U.S. Senate are supporting a constitutional amendment to repeal the free-speech provisions of the First Amendment and give Congress carte blanche power to regulate political speech." That is how tyranny gets fed, my friends. Pass this because, "Oh, it's only political" as if that would be deemed inconsequential and unimportant. Beware of Trojan Horses that become killers in disguise. Senator Cruz continues with these reminders, "Forty-six Senate Democrats are willing to rewrite the Constitution to take away the right of Americans to speak or create art that is critical of politicians. "Forty-six Senate Democrats are actively working to silence political criticism ahead of the next presidential election. "Never before has Congress tampered with the First Amendment." I ask you to read that last sentence again. Now how inconsequential and unimportant does further amending the First Amendment seem to you? Doing something for the first time in the 227 year history of our Constitution has VERY consequential meaning to it. It's like uncorking a bottle of 200-year-old fine wine, putting the cork back in the bottle thinking it will go unopened another 200 years. Right! Uh, huh. Ted Cruz tells us of other examples, "When a similar proposal was considered in 1997, the famed liberal lion of the Senate, Ted Kennedy, reminded his colleagues that never before had the Bill of Rights been amended and "now is no time to start." "The American Civil Liberties Union says the Democrats' amendment would "severely limit the First Amendment and lead directly to government censorship of political speech." And Cruz cites Floyd Abrams, "perhaps the leading First Amendment litigator in the country and an outspoken Democrat, has, as well. He said the amendment "would limit speech that is at the heart of our First Amendment." The First Amendment is intact, never been broken; as Wikipedia claims, a famous Democrat, Bert Lance, is credited with saying, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." Keep it in your family, Democrats.
