This type of bastardization of the facts has been the mantra of the democrat party in the united states for about the past 50 years.
You can thank your teachers' unions and the liberal universities for this kind of crap.

Here we go some genius blaming one party for the mess we are in. Do you realize how dumb you sound when you say stuff like this. It is a rant. You are probably a poor republican who defends the super rich, thinking one day you will have a chance to become one of them when in fact you don't have a chance in the world. It is not the democrats and republicans. It is one super powerful group controlling the federal reserve, the education, etc.

That foundation is that the Constitution grants us rights, not protects them. Since the Constitution is the basis of Government, it must also mean that Government has allowed us to have such wonderful rights.

Sorry to have to burst your bubble, but I think that the USA is up the creek without a paddle.
The law that I live by and which is holding us all bonded is called PRAECEPTAE CAELENIUM(tm). I did not read it in a book. You will not find it in any book. It was revealed to me by audio clairvoyance during the celebrations of the New Millennium in 2000. Summed up it basically means no sex and no drugs and no violence.
As far as the little dig that Rights permeate from within Government has been hammered home for a long time now. You cannot exactly get the youth to actually believe that the Government is the bastion of hope without first giving them a foundation. That foundation is that the Constitution grants us rights, not protects them. Since the Constitution is the basis of Government, it must also mean that Government has allowed us to have such wonderful rights.

Again both parties are "tools" as you mentioned. BOTH OF THEM. You can not blame one or the other because they are both frauds. A side show to keep everyone distracted. Half choose one side half choose the other. Everyone fights each other and nothing gets accomplished while TPTB laugh all the way to the banks they own. You have been fooled, as most have into choosing a "side".edit on 1/12/2011 by CJCSuperman because: (no reason given)

That is 100% dead wrong.
The Constitution doesn't grant us diddly. The Constitution merely recognizes our rights under nature and nature's god, and draws lines in the sand where government may not tread.
If anything, the Constitution limits government, not empowers people.
Those rights of mankind are ours naturally. Government doesn't "allow" us to have those rights, the Constitution doesn't "grant" them; they are ours by nature.
