I'm not ignoring anything. I just don't think it's a good time to smooch Nancy Pelosi butt. And by the by, liberals have done a lot of winning by ignoring and subverting the Constitution. Why would you side with someone who wipes their ass with the greatest political document ever written (unless it suits them) every minute of every day of their life?"The Hammer"https://www.blogger.com/profile/16342812251947807673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8591018003444406729.post-61113458809085566662013-09-29T16:48:21.767-04:002013-09-29T16:48:21.767-04:00Anon--I ignored nothing of the sort.

It is the entire debt ceiling law which is unconstitutional. <br /><br />Hammer--I may be right, but so what? What kind of logic is that? If I'm right, I'm right. We don't win by ignoring the Constitution. <br /><br />Mudge--it is immaterial what the spending is for. The Constitution provides for the debts accrued by the government to be paid. Again, the entire concept of a debt limit is UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

If it is the former, then you are correct to agree with Ms. Pelosi. If the latter, you are, as in virtually every case where someone agrees with her, mistaken. The woman, it turns out, absolutely IS wrong 100% of the time. She always has been wrong for this magnificent nation we inherited but through our insecurity in fighting hard, even mercilessly, to protect it from a growing political class seeking to change it, I don't know if we can survive much more of her ilk. And as my friend from Tangier Island says of your new-found like minded thinker, "the woman sleeps hanging upside down".

Hell most of the time). You may be right but so what? This is something that obviously needs to be decided by the courts, so let the leftist scum have at it. They have plenty of lawyers. But right now we're in a big fight and this is not the time to give aid and comfort to the enemy. And incidentally, I don't recall Pelosi raising this BS during her 25+ years representing the fruits, nuts and flakes of San Francisco...quite the damn contrary! <br />So do us a favor, take off that Brooks Brothers suit and put on your Duck Dynasty camo and lets kick some liberal ass.

So even the current spending below the debt ceiling is of questionable legality.<br />So rest easy tonight. The Botox bitch of Bolshevism may yet eventually be right about something -- a stopped clock is right once or twice a day -- but you need not agree with her, because this interpretation isn't even remotely on solid ground. <br /><br />Now it is true that the vile creatures we elect continue to spend and continue to raise the debt limit making the law somewhat moot in the long run, but in the short run we can at least slow down their raping of the nation.
