  Posted by statusquobuster from Associatedcontent
  Fed up with the federal government's refusal to curb illegal immigration, a bold proposal would give states power.

- Senator Specter Fights for Constitution
  Posted by statusquobuster from OpEdNews
  Republican Senator Arlen Specter showed his respect for the U.S. Constitution and his anger about President Bush’s repeated pissing on it by introducing the Presidential Signing Statements Act of 2007. What happens to this crucial bill will test both congressional integrity and courage.

- Thanks for Dick Cheney
  Posted by statusquobuster from OpEdNews
  Dick Cheney is the leading practitioner of the ends-justify-the-means mentality, where only his vision of the desired ends counts. Serving corporate interests rather than serving the people is Cheney’s brand of patriotism. Our Constitution should not allow the government to make us victims and our nation hated by so much of the world. That’s what Cheney should teach us. Now, it’s up to us.

  Posted by statusquobuster from OpEdNews
  How can we explain the inability of Americans to rise up in rebellion when it is so clear that their government has failed them?

- Democracy Dreaming - The Smirking Chimp
  Posted by statusquobuster from Smirkingchimp
  America was given a representative democracy within a constitutional republic where laws that protect all people trump majority rule. Standing between majority-won elections and government power are elected representatives: writing, overseeing and implementing laws. But when you can no longer trust the elected representatives what happens to American democracy? It becomes an oxymoron.

- Taking Democracy Seriously
  Posted by statusquobuster from OpEdNews
  Voting is the heart of a healthy democracy. With our persistent low voter turnout, the heart of American democracy is barely beating. Five reforms can dramatically re-energize voting in America. They could be placed in one constitutional amendment and ratified by the states in time for the 2008 presidential election.

Illegal Immigration Spurs Constitutional Amendment - Associated Content

An art. V was tried in Sept. of 2004, and s.c.o.t.u.s. ruled it was ok for the congress to not allow it…so, the entire Congress was sued, and hired the Govt. to defend them..they again lost.
However, it has now proved to be a criminal act ,in that they had basically admitted to it by defending themselves…...
It appears now that there are a few new approaches to the Art. V , but not to many Attny’s are willing to stick their necks out fighting our own CROOKED govt.
please read the article on WALKER vs theU.S….probably find it in google….

Didn’t Specter allow Alito and Roberts to get confirmed? They are trouncing democracy on the Supreme Court decision by decision!
