Miller, Angle, Palin and the rest claim they’re out there defending
the constitution. Rand Paul, another Tea Party darling, himself told
me, “I’m a strict constructionist. I believe in a federal government
that operates under the enumerated powers of the constitution.” Why,
then, do these people continue to undermine the constitution?
For all the blathering this author has YET to denote WHAT is
being undermined.
As anyone can tell you our nation’s forefathers are quite clear in the
first amendment, “Congress shall make no law…abridging the freedom of
speech, or of the press.” Conservative attacks of or avoidance of the
“media,” then, are actually attacks on free press, a constitutional
ideal they claim they want to protect. Their refusal to deal with or
derision of the press curtails not only our founding document, but any
meaningful democratic discourse.
A pity this guy did not UNDERSTAND what he quoted. He then
goes on to proclaim that "the ball is red" therefore these Republicans
are Poopeyheads.
Whoever wrote this pathetic attack piece has not a clue.

A democracy is no more than an aristocracy of orators. The
people are so readily moved by demagogues that control must
be exercised by the government over speech and press. -- Thomas Hobbes
