So, while we've faced being marched into this contest between two half-men - an incompetent socialist president, Barack Obama, and gullible Mormon cultist, Mitt Romney, both naively enthralled with a separate, but dangerous and silly ideology - Americans should also understand participation in this fiasco is the least difficult choice before us. But not our only choice - not by a long shot.
The American system of government was not made for lemmings. We do not have to go along.
And anyone who tells you different is either delusional or a liar:
From The Constitution of the United States
AMENDMENT XX
Passed by Congress March 2, 1932. Ratified January 23, 1933.
Note: A portion of the 12th amendment was superseded by section 3.
Section 3.
If a President shall not have been chosen before the time fixed for the beginning of his term,…the Congress may by law provide for,…the manner in which one who is to act shall be selected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.
Translation: Heading over a cliff, with these two, doesn't have to happen,...
Um, I could engage you here but you have ignored me in the past, so you could reply to me pursuing you on Althouse. OK, so you don't want heads or tails; you want the coin to land on edge.
ReplyDeleteI guess you don't intend to shoot Romney before the convention and oblige the smoke-filled rooms to reboot the selection? Then somehow you intend for the electoral process to choose neither Romney nor Obama.
How may this miracle be accomplished? Do you realize you cannot stop 40-50% of the people for voting for Obama, especially with this slant you are taking? Let's say you deny Romney every vote. Fine, Obama wins. Find a third party candidate who will tie up the Electoral College? What's the plan? You make about as much sense as Mick.
I like you, Crack, but you are making no sense. I do not adore Romney but Obama is a house on fire. Only a fool fights inside a burning house, as the Klingons say. ABO - or no?
