What a shame that Perry’s demagoguery on this issue is getting applause. There is an awful lot of mindlessness among the electorate, alas. Of COURSE Perry sounds good on this… unless you actually understand the federal government, in which case it is nonsense.

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

"unless you actually understand the federal government"
Actually, understanding the federal government is why you would want them to go home.

No, that leaves the bureaucracy in charge, and abdicates too much power to the already-over-powerful executive.
Red Phillips | 12.15.11 @ 10:19PM
The bureaucracy does things it's not Constitutionally authorized to do also. We need to cut government down to Constitutional size and a part time Congress is part of that. I surprised by you on this Quin.

The executive needs a 75% haircut too. Get the government back to first principles. Yes...to a part time congress. If they are not there, then they can't start any NEW problems.

Mike
