I think that if these items were gotten rid of, most importantly the Fed, the rest would wither on the vine.<br /><br />The fact is that women already had the right to vote, some only in local elections, in all but six states prior to the 19th amendment passing. Maybe there was an increase of baby-kissing after the 19th, but today the 19th impacts us from the large numbers of unmarried women which comprise the modern gender gap, which statistically began in 1980. <br /><br />I have no problem with my husband representing our family at the polls, but to talk about repealing the 19th is silly talk with what all we're currently facing. Congress is still overwhelmingly male, by the way, and they don't vote for liberal policies to get the women's vote, they do it for the power.<br /><br />Those rest of the amendments you cite, I could support repealing all except the poll taxes, maybe the 25th, and definitely the not the 22nd.<br /><br />@Maggie, this post did take a lot of work, but most of the kids were at granny's house, so I went nuts!republicanmotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07771957484079419477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914413525684497615.post-28496605974483610672010-07-11T20:29:30.159-07:002010-07-11T20:29:30.159-07:00It's staggering.

There is no stopping the Democrats who buy their votes from this criminal program. <br /><br />This is a great post.

I just thought that a truly comprehensive list would include ALL amendments after the 15th as being fruit of the same poisonous tree. (By the way, whether Congress was overwhelmingly male or not is completely irrelevant. The 19th amendment altered the politics of those elected, even if it did not change the sex ratios right away.)UK Houstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11968134446035435081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914413525684497615.post-75668418286292224072010-07-11T20:16:26.414-07:002010-07-11T20:16:26.414-07:00Hardy har har.

All of the New Deal and Great Society mess was passed by an overwhelming male Congress. Jeanette Rankin, who was the only female congressman was one of only 50 who voted against the bogus-ness of our entering WW1.republicanmotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07771957484079419477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914413525684497615.post-2712385091500985722010-07-11T19:48:11.421-07:002010-07-11T19:48:11.421-07:00You forgot the 19th Amendment ... one of the chief...You forgot the 19th Amendment ... one of the chief enablers of so much other bad legislation you have listed.UK Houstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11968134446035435081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914413525684497615.post-76374402625798105682010-07-11T05:35:27.793-07:002010-07-11T05:35:27.793-07:00You're right about ignorance being bliss!

When I study some of these power-grabbing issues, I keep the prophecies at the front of my mind.<br /><br />Seriously, the way this world is going, I don't know if I'll wake up in my bed in the morning or in glory! It makes you sad to see your country headed up by godless people at every turn - remember how sad Jesus was when the Jews rejected him:<br /><br />"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing." Matthew 23:37<br />You're right, it will happen all of a sudden, but take comfort that God is already there.republicanmotherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07771957484079419477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2914413525684497615.post-68702379270227792312010-07-10T19:40:53.753-07:002010-07-10T19:40:53.753-07:00Way back when I first discovered the internet, I e...Way back when I first discovered the internet, I engaged in that "study of evil" you're talking about. I spent months reading blogs and sites that said pretty much what you say right now, only with worse fonts and horrible flashing lights and music. <br /><br />I think it made me a little crazy for a while there, realizing how purposeful the demolition of our Constitution was, and how utterly ignorant most people are about it--not to mention how impossible it is to explain it to anyone who isn't some kind of history/poli-sci geek. <br /><br />We still think this is the land of the free, while putting up with all this. Once I wrapped my mind around it, I gave up thinking about it for very long at a time. It's too painful. It's never far from my mind, though, how far we are from what we were meant to be.<br /><br />I think things will go on pretty much as they are, with everyone eating pretty well and snoozing through the power-grab for a few years yet. Then the end (of America, of the veneer of freedom we have now, of safety) will come very suddenly, and a whole lot of people are going to still be gossiping about Lindsey Lohan when their last rights are yanked out from under them. They won't even know what hit them. I'm not sure I feel better about knowing what's gonna hit us. Kinda wish I didn't know. Ignorance is bliss.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
