Discussion for article #224677
Obviously Obama has conspired to pervert the meaning of the declaration by going back in time 225 years and changing the document to further his socialistic agenda. Good thing there are other copies to prove this out. Issa needs to convene a hearing immediately to get to the bottom of this conspiracy.
(The above is brought to you by the letter S ⌠S is for snark.)
Hey, good luck, scholars of the actual academic world, getting the Congress of the Damned and a by-necessity 3-card Monte president and those High Priests of Defedestration in the SCOTUS cave to go along with âfixingâ the pure innocent truthie words of Baby Jesus hisownself writ down in the Holy Constitution. I give 'em about as much chance as all them folks talking up Constitutional Amendments to âfixâ the misreading of the entrails by the High Priests and Constitutional Conferences guarded by Patriots exercising their God-given Open Carry rights to keep out libruls, feminazis, immigrantista, fags, treehuggers, islamoterrists and all other such commie scum.
That period doesnât change the meaning.
A periodâŚ
Well nowâŚ
This should really bug the right politically and reproductively.
Anything that strengthens the notion that government is constituted to secure said rights is a good thing, though I donât see how the period alters or weakens the idea.
Toby Ziegler of The West Wing spotted an errant punctuation years ago - Series 7 I think - so whatâs new?
In short consent of the corporation according to the Fascist Five.
I agree. I donât get why this is a big deal.
What Iâve never understood is why they didnât use plain English when they wrote the 2nd Amendment. Were they talking about militias, or Wild Bill Hickock.
Seems kind of clumsy either way. If they wanted to set off âamong these areâŚpursuit of Happinessâ they ought to have double hyphens on both sides, as in
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights â among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness â That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among MenâŚ
I should think that missing a period would be a greater cause for alarm.
I believe it is an error, why would you ever follow a period with a dash? And I agree with the scholar that if this is all one sentence it presents government as the defender of individual rights rather than the libertarian view promoted and funded by the Koch brothers that any government at all is an infringement on individual rights.
This happens when you send a 16 year-old to college before heâs really ready, (or before he had a high school diploma).
Itâs just a small point.

Issa wonât find anything. Obama deleted Thomas Jeffersonâs emails.
Sir, you have officially won the internets for the day!
Josh, shut down the servers so we can all go out and play. And give your IT staff the day off. They deserve it.
Too funny!
