Dead Constitution See other Dead Constitution Articles Title: FREE REPUBLIC MISSION STATEMENT - George W. Bush and The Republican Congress Don't Stand For Any Of It Free Republic is dedicated to reversing the trend of unconstitutional government expansion and is advocating a complete restoration of our constitutional republic. Listed below are some of the issues we feel strongly about. Basically, we believe that the Founders designed our system of government in the form of a constitutionally limited republic, with maximum freedom intended for the people and minimum government control or interference into our personal lives and business affairs. The united states of America was intended to be a federation of sovereign states, each with its own constitution and state government. Governments at all levels -- federal, state and local -- were to be controlled by the people. Our Constitution explicitly restricts the power of our federal government; and our Bill of Rights guarantees that NO government may infringe upon our God given unalienable rights. This is to ensure that the real power remains close to home, with the states, the local governments and always in the hands of the people. We the People have granted our federal government limited powers to oversee certain things, such as national defense, interstate commerce, the postal service, the coining of money, and the operation of a court system. Most other powers now in the hands of the federal government were illegally usurped from the states and from the people. Somehow, over the years, our guiding principles of law, as set forth in the Constitution, have been eroded to the point that the federal government now has total control -- leaving the states impotent and the people as captive servants to the federal government. This must be reversed if we are to survive as a free Republic and a free people. We at Free Republic are determined to return the Constitution to its rightful place as the Supreme Law of the land as the Founders intended. It is not necessary for everyone to hold the same views to be members of Free Republic, however, many of us do share many of the following as common beliefs and goals: Repeal of the war and emergency powers acts and the various states of national emergencies will allow the abolishing of all unconstitutional federal law, agencies and departments. This will return us to a Federalist system of government and return many responsibilities to the States and personal rights to the citizens. A return to a strictly Constitutional form of federal government will automatically repeal and abolish all unconstitutional federal involvement in states issues such as: crime, health, education, welfare and the environment. The Tenth Amendment will again be in effect, which will bar all federal attempts at legislating social issues. This will also require that social programs such as Social Security, welfare and Medicare be repealed. So too, will most federal subsidies.

This clearly needs updating.
Like Bush, they have no shame. Bush on the Constitution: 'It's just a goddamned piece of paper'
The FR Mission Statement: "It's just a goddam waste of broadband."
Yep. This account has been banned or suspended. Reason: Bye-bye
Can you see anything in there that Bush or the Republican Congress do?
Yes I do see somethings by reading between the lines and observing their actions-Robinson, Bush, RINOS in Congress- they all lie a great deal (mean the opposite of what they write and say), they are selling out America for their own personal gain, they are hypocrits, they abuse our rights, they are cover up artists who send out their shills to attack and harrass those who would expose them. Remember Robinson protected Jeff Gannon, the gay White House fake journalist pimp who Robinson and the RINOS used to attack critics of Bush on FR like me-they even sent him and others like him over to LP to attack me and other former FR critics. They are all complete literal and figurative whores. Rove is their strategest and idol

He talks the talk but doesn't walk with it.
Gannon actually posted on LP? Do you know his handle?
