Do we need a new Constitution?

At the rate Obama is making televised speeches we're going to need "The Obama Channel." The Senate wants to push through the Baucus healthcare reform bill (and its 564 ammendments) BEFORE it is printed so the people of the United States can't even READ IT.

The Baucus health care reform plan is chock-full of provisions calling for new government mandates, higher taxes, increased spending and government-dictated, rationed health care.

In fact, it’s so bad that Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl said of Baucus’ plan: “This is a stunning assault on liberty!”

In my opinion it’s the first step in doing away with our Constitution. The Democrats in Massachusetts changed their constitution in 2004 so that then Gov. Mitt Romney could NOT name a replacement for Sen. John Kerry when he ran for the presidency. Now they’ve changed that state’s constitution BACK so the people can not choose a replacement for Ted Kennedy. Because there is now a democratic Governor, they changed it back so he CAN name a replacement for Kennedy.

The first Constitutional assault was on the Massachusetts constitution. The second has been made, this time on the U.S. Constitution (with Congress trying to sneak through the Baucus bill). The next assault may be to do away with our Constitution entirely. Can we stop them?

Perhaps we should just wave a white flag and surrender. We can go one better: Let's change the Constitution FOR them. Our current preamble reads:


We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Maybe the preamble should read:

We the people of the United States Congress, in order to form a less problematic dictatorship, abolish justice, insure domestic subservience, provide for the dictator's desires, promote the general disgust, and secure the nation for our dictator and his posterity, do abolish this Constitution of the United States of America.

If we don't stand up and stop this Congress, it could happen.
