Doesn't it bother you when people equivocate the Constitution?... Or minimize it as a document of rights and liberty? Don't you notice the not so veiled attempts at discrediting the founding fathers?
Do you like the United States? Well, then wake up to what's going on around you.
I'm awake. The country has supposedly been falling apart many times before: during the Revolutionary War, during eh 1850s, during the era of the robber barrons, during the Great Depression, during the 1960's, the 1970's, Clinton's election, etc. Not to mention the time the country actually split apart and civil war resulted with half a million dead. Taken at that level, current times are not particularly out of the norm. The right wing narrative that has developed over the last 25 years has been preaching the demise of the US all along. I live in the one of the most, if not the most, conservative state in the union. What does our conservative representation do for us? High crime, poor healthcare, poor schools, high poverty, horrible race relations, worthlessly underfunded programs, and open hostility to groups that are different.
