I am always amused when so called intelligent people dismiss the constitution and the founding fathers as irrelevant. There is a timeless quality to the length and breadth of wisdom preserved in their writings that can even survive generations of pseudo intellectual giants of liberal thought. For your perusal four of George Washington's quotes. 1)"Government is not reason, it is not eloquent, it is force. Like fire it is a dangerous servant, and a fearful master". This was before Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, and Obama the eloquent orator. 2)"I hope I shall possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man". Something Geithner, Rangel, Waters, Daschle, Blago, and other politicians don't consider very enviable. 3)"Mankind when left to themselves are unfit for their own government". Why? 4)"It is impossible to rightly govern a nation without God and the bible". There in a nutshell is why our nation is on the highway to hell captained by virtueless, clueless, self absorbed, self aggrandizing men who believe they're gods, but are as false as the wooden teeth in George's mouth.
