    | Kristina Botts assures us that a Clinton presidency would not endanger gun ownership thanks to congressional vote requirements [Second Amendment is not in peril].  Unfortunately, our constitutional rights are only as secure as the latest iteration of the Supreme Court allows them to be.
 
 Some constitutional scholars estimate that 75 percent of federal activity is extra, or unconstitutional — all of it done without resorting to a constitutional convention.  For example, federal meddling in education, health care, property rights, abortion, marriage, aspects of commerce, etc., were all achieved without specific enumeration in the Constitution.

    | Tru dat.   The Fourth Amendment is gone, now that the gub-mint passed that oh-bummer-care.  They gits to see all my medical records and stuff, courtesy of the same political sector that pushed for the "right of privacy" when killing off unborn chilluns by they mamas' abortion docs. 
 I dunno how they can juxtapose them two diametrically opposed principles in they heads, but mebbe it because they got no principles excepting tellin other folk how they gots to live.
