Actually, it was Franklin D. Roosevelt who said we have nothing to fear but fear itself. It's not in the Constitution. But maybe it should be.

Wow, to which constitution are you referring? Seriously, give it a read, tell me where it says, "nothing to fear but fear itself"

(Hint, that quote was uttered, oh, 150 years after the constitution was written.)

I truly hope that you are a Republican who is impersonating a Democrat in the attempt to make them look stupid.

I will be the one to tell you that "nothing to fear but fear itself" is from a wartime speech made by FDR, it is not in the constitution.

Huh-- The constitution says nothing to fear but fear itself-- where would that be....

On your main question-- R's tend to focus on certain parts of the constitution-- like the 2nd amendment. They'll focus on the others when it suits them-- like the 5th

NEW PREAMBLE TO THE CONSTITUTION

The following has been attributed to State Representative Mitchell Aye from GA. This guy should run for President one day...


"We the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings of debt-free liberty to ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines

For the Terminally WHINY, Guilt Ridden, Delusional, and other LIBERAL BED-WETTERS. We hold these truths to be self evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim they require a Bill of NON-Rights."

ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV, or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but No one is guaranteeing anything.

ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be offended. This
country is Based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc.; But the world is full of idiots, and probably always will be.

ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you
stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful, do not expect the tool Manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy.

ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and housing.
Americans are the most charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the Creation of another generation of professional couch potatoes. (This one is my pet peeve...get an education and go to work....don't expect everyone else to take care of you!)

ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice, but from the looks of public housing, we're just not
interested in public health care.

ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm other
people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair.

ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat, or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen color TV or a life of leisure.

ARTICLE VIII: You do not have the right to a job. All of us sure
want you to have a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of education and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful. (AMEN!)

ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an
American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness, which by the way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an over abundance of idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights.

ARTICLE X: This is an English speaking country. We don't care where you are from, English is our language. Learn it or go back to wherever you came from! (lastly....)

ARTICLE XI: You do not have the right to change our country's
history or heritage. This country was founded on the belief in God. And yet, you are given the freedom to believe in any religion, any faith, or no faith at all; with no fear of persecution. The phrase IN GOD WE TRUST is part of our heritage and history, and if you are uncomfortable with it, TOUGH!!!!

HUMM! Looks to me like Republicans know a whole lot more about the constution then YOU and YOUR FOLKS!

A bunch of history buffs here. Those were the words of Winston Churchill in a speech to the British people during WWII.

They know everything about the Constitution. That's why they got rid of it. How can Bush be Dictator with a constitution?

YOU"RE NOT A LIBERAL!! You're obviously a Republican posing as a liberal, ostensibly to make liberals look stupid and extremist. If this is how you want to waste your time, go ahead, but really it's terribly obvious.
