Uphold and defend the Constitution?

[unixronin]

Radical concept, huh?  That Government should obey the limitations placed on it by the US Constitution that is the foundation for its authority?  Shame the Government has forgotten all about that part.

FederalistPatriot hasn't.  They have a Petition to Restore Constiitutional Integrity up.  You can also sign it by sending email to sign-integrity@PatriotPetitions.US.  BushCo and Congress in general will most likely totally ignore it, of course, but still....

You have a duty.  Carry it out.

Ummmm, I've heard of the Federalist, but I haven't heard of the Federalist Patriot. You trust'em not to give it up when Tommy Treasury comes knocking? (I figure if you trust'em, you're more of a paranoid BOFH than I am...)

Oh, and we should swap keys sometime...

It's a name and an email address. I'm sure the feds already have that. (On me. Be your own level of paranoid. I certainly wouldn't have given them an address.)

And frankly, if they're going to start arresting people for saying the Government should obey the Constitution, then it is most definitely tiem to open the fourth box. And if the best service I can do is to be a test case, well, I'm OK with that.

There is no perfect trust in this world. Sometimes there are causes and times for taking risks. Perhaps this is one of them.

One could also debate the efficacy of asking politely when the offender has already shown he's more than willing to use force to get his way.

If you're referring to the Federalist I think you are, they are the same thing. It's the org that sends out the emails with the quotes that I often post. At some point in the near past, they changed their name. http://federalist.com will redirect you to the new URL at http://federalistpatriot.us.

If you think this is a worthwhile endeavor I highly recommend that you not send in your email address to their list.

Copy the text of the petition and send it to your senator and to the White House. If your up for it write it out in pen and ink. It will carry more weight than thousands of online signatures.

Absolutely.

What he said, folks.

I could actually see this getting at least a little of Murray's attention. Cantwell? She's a hack and won't buck the party line. Given the disarray the DNC's in right now, that's pretty chaotic. Patty, on the other hand, actually believes in freedom, AFAICT.

That I might do. (She already has my name in her files; I actually hand delivered a letter to her office here once.)
