Ricky’s Quickies – Kelo Vs New London I saw a neat feature on FOX-TV about Kelo vs New London that I had never seen before. Don’t know why now, but Susette Kelo was a guest on one of their news programs. I was surprised to see Kelo was a simple homeowner. (Kelo didn’t sound like a last name to me.) Prim and proper probably in her middle 50’s. No husband present. I was surprised to hear the confiscation case spent 10 years in the courts. They showed her spiffy pink house as it is today. It had been moved out of the construction zone. She doesn’t live there; it was unclear if anyone does. Even some things I thought I knew were true, weren’t. I thought it was one hard-headed person’s land being taken. Nope. 78 homes of which 7 resisted to the end. I thought the property was taken to build a mall. Nope. Wrong again. Pfizer wanted to expand. One final piece of irony. The land fought for, so hard, so long consuming so much time, money and making a mockery of the Bill of Rights, now stands vacant. Not leveled for future use; just a giant weed patch that the owner, whether it be the City of New London or Pfizer, should pay to clean up. Now. I submit this as more evidence that the Constitution has become irrelevant, even in the hallowed halls of the Supreme Court. We shouldn’t have been surprised by Barack’s eligibility “no standing” decisions.

Amendment V No person shall be held to answer for a capital…nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation. You are cordially invited to join the debate we're having on Article V of the constitution. Rich Martin Send email to [email protected] I LOVE MY COUNTRY I HATE MY GOVT Personally, I think this debate is purely academic because Congress will not perform their duty under the Constitution. But we can't go to the next step until we exhaust every Constitutional solution. After that, we look at our God given rights contained in our Declaration of Independence. "The Congress…on the application of the legislatures of two-thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments…" Article V, USCON At the same time, academic exercises like this can serve secondary purposes. Just like last month we learned that a man could become president without proving he meets the minimum Constitutional standards to become president, we now know as a matter of fact, the Congress can also legally ignore the Constitution. "No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States , all be eligible to the office of President..." Article 2, Section 4, USCON The govt has trampled our precious constitution to death and has breached the contract with We the People that authorizes its very existence. By their own actions, or inactions, they have become a defacto outlaw govt. They have no standing! It’s time we demand our state legislatures to form a new and less imperfect nation.
