Show me the flaws

January 24, 2023 by Guest Post

by Terri Lackey, Stevensville

The US Constitution is under attack. Why? It is being used as a tool by nefarious people who want to shred it, write a new one, and turn us into a communist country. These people are very good at what they do, have lots of money and use their smooth words and charisma to feed the ignorance of people, and move their agenda forward. They even have their own little pocket guide to carry around so their subjects know what to say. Are they trying to mimic the pocket Constitution? The ones who have drank the convention of states kool-aid have taken Article V and added words so it reads the way they want it to, so they can help push their leaders’ agenda. They are so brainwashed, they actually believe what they are saying to be true. Don’t believe me? Take out your pocket Constitution, read Article V, then look up what the convention of states say about it, and decide for yourself. 

The US Constitution is NOT broken. We are. Article V is not the answer. The 10thAmendment is. We have always had the power. The States and We the People are given the power to put the Federal government back into its box. “We” have been lax in our duties to hold our representatives accountable. We all agree that the government is out of control. We let it happen. We all want a balanced budget. Take a look at Congress’ enumerated powers and you will find the balanced budget. Term limits? Yep! We the People are the answer to that one also. Why would you want to term out people like Senator Theresa Manzella, who is a solid warrior for our rights and freedoms and takes her oath very seriously? We keep people like that so they can mentor the freshmen on how to know and uphold their oath! Then the ones who turn on us, like David Bedey and his 24 turn-coats, we absolutely get rid of them! You know what they say about 1 bad apple. 

So show me the flaws? Where is it broken? It’s not! 

So leave it alone – Read It – Know It – Defend It! 

Then you will not be taken for a ride by the people who hate this country and are trying to use our Founding document to destroy it!
