Was this a political event or one of those goofy reenactments?

The final debasement of American politics is at hand. The Idiot Questioner has arrived. Grab your potato chips, wrap your head in a wet towel, pull from the bottle your fill, and let the world slide!

Oh wait! I get it.

If you DRESS like they did in 1791, your dedication to the Constitution is metaphysically GREATER than if you dress in clothing like we wear in the 21st century.

See, this is what I love about tea baggers. Their commitment to reasoned discourse and their unwavering devotion to philosophical investigation.

Gentlemen, behold! The future of American politics!

Margie| 12.3.09 @ 11:42PM

No, that would actually be Obummer. As long as he SOUNDS Presidential, he must really BE Presidential. Right? Right?
Oops. Wrong!

Margie| 12.3.09 @ 11:49PM

But wait! What to do about the fact the he actually said the Constitution is obsolete? Oh my, no pretending there, eh?
Not even metaphorically speaking.
Shucks.

----------------------------------------------------------------
See this is what I love about the mindless Obama Kool-Aid drinkers. This is the shining example of liberal intelligence: mindless repetition of liberal talking points.
Yup this is the future of liberal politics!

Liberal Reader| 12.3.09 @ 2:20PM

Seems to me you're the one doing the mindless repetition, LAI...

Anita Dunn| 12.3.09 @ 8:41AM

Rally up trolls! This film is dangerous...

Joanne Zabielski| 12.3.09 @ 5:59PM

Why are Liberals so afraid of us? All politicians should be...do the math---this is just an inkling of problems in our gov't that spends too much money...please read to the end...it gives factual math figures...if it wasn't so true it would be funny
The next time you hear a politician use the
Word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about
Whether you want the 'politicians' spending
YOUR tax money.

A billion is a difficult number to comprehend,
But one advertising agency did a good job of
Putting that figure into some perspective in
One of it's releases.

A.
A billion seconds ago it was 1959.

B.
A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.

C.
A billion hours ago our ancestors were
Living in the Stone Age.

D.
A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.

E.
A billion dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes, At the rate our
government Is spending it.

While this thought is still fresh in our brain...
let's take a look at New Orleans ..
It's amazing what you can learn with some simple division.

Louisiana Senator,
Mary Landrieu (D)
Is presently asking Congress for at least
250 BILLION DOLLARS
To rebuild New Orleans. (P.S. She got $300 million for voting "Yes" on the
Senate health care bill!!) Interesting number...
What does it mean?
$250 billion would do the following:
A.
Well ... If you are one of the 484,674 residents of New Orleans (every man,
woman, and child)
You each get $516,528.

B.
Or... If you have one of the 188,251 homes in
New Orleans , your home gets $1,329,787.

C.
Or... If you are a family of four...Your family gets $2,066,012.

Washington , D. C

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago...

We had absolutely no national debt...
We had the largest middle class in the world...
And Mom stayed home to raise the kids.

What happened?
Can you spell 'politicians!'

And I still have to

MAKE SURE TO DEFINATELY VOTE EVERY ONE OF THEM OUT NEXT NOVEMBER!!

Great post!
Unfortunately though, and sadly, all of the above does not concern the Leftists. Why, some of them are richly reimbursed by George Soros and don't have to worry about money. They actually get paid to insult and lie about conservatives for a living. Some... of... them.
How intellectually dishonest!
