The Democrats Are Nuts

Curt — Tue, 04 Apr 2023 11:19:38 +0000

I understand the GOP isn’t a great political party (as do most Americans), but if the Dems continue to double-down on supporting trans surgery for minors, abortion in all cases, lying about inflation, and just plain denying objective facts and common sense; they are going to drive independents to the GOP in the next election. After hearing so much craziness in the last couple of years; I could not in good conscience vote for a Democrat. I honestly don’t know what to do at this point. I think many Americans feel the same.

What Say Ye?

Federalism

Curt — Mon, 22 Nov 2021 10:53:41 +0000

If you remember back to last Summer, I posted my opposition to the Trump Administration’s practice of sending Federal agents into places like Portland, Seattle, and Minneapolis without a request from the duly elected Mayor of the community.
Now, the Biden Administration wants to send in “Federal Strike Forces” to “stop illegal gun trafficking across state lines.” I oppose this as well (although, I do believe a case could possibly be made that this is technically legal because the “crime crosses state lines.” ) because of my federalist stance, and that pesky Constitution that contains the Second Amendment.
You see, I am a Federalist. I believe in Federalism. I believe this nation was founded as a federated republic. After all, the very name of this nation is the United States of America, not just America.
Federalism limits the power of the Federal Government—a very good thing to my way of thinking. You may disagree, and that’s you’re right, but let’s at least be honest about the two parties: they both want to exert Federal control over US, and that’s something I oppose and hope you do too.
What Say Ye?
