Yet researchers say domestic extremists who commit violence in the name of their cause _ abortion or the environment, for example _ account for most of the damage from such incidents in this country.

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….

2007: Prepare for 'Great Turning' in the United States

I hope America is ready to hear John Edwards call for attention to the poorest among us. I think it is – but I’m not sure.

2007 is turning into an exciting year. Thanks for the post.
