responce to a friend

Bit by bit? It has been on a freefall since the election of Jackson. Other than his inaguration and the wheel of cheese both parties have been heading away from jeffersonian pollitics at a mad dash. It should be noted that our fore fathers had planned for much of our founding documents to be living, and adaptable from time to time, so long as congress made the requisate changes in the law. There is only one right that is "inallenable" (can not be taken, or given away) Our government has not waited to change the law, they have just acted in their own interest and moved along to the next self bennifitial action. Congress for example is quite limited in its power to tax and spend, but without care for the law or the populas they just do as they please. This reminds me of our not so mis-spent youth at the Highland Coffee House, but to relive this we would need to go to Kentucky to avoid funding a governmental entity that disallows smoking... And on that topic the first sin tax has been levied to pay for unfunded programs, 158% increase in federal taxes on cigarettes, guess I need to go to Kentucky and buy smokes that are not federally taxed. Obama, you have failed!!!
