The man is just nuts. Downright lunatic in
his justification of supporting the wanna-be dictator Zelaya. But then is it really surprising that he talks that he might
bypass our own Constitution and make a treaty without the Senate ratification process? AUGH!
Top the irrational thinking in foreign policy off with domestic and "climate change" policy such as
the plan to "tax the rich" on CO2 emissions ... and of course
the rich will pay for health care..... oh you know who the rich are people... the folks who worked their butts off to attain something only to see their government doing everything in their power to reduce everyone to the same level of poverty that creates drones and government control......
The thing is... the truly rich. The multimillionaires. The billionaires. They won't be wiped out. No, they will survive and do fine, most of their money is hidden in trusts anyway. Who are they? The Washington elitists for the most part. But those who are working hard every day, those who are perceived to be rich yet are not. Those who maintain small businesses and employ the majority of Americans. Those that believe it is their right to give their money where they want instead of have the government decide it for them... they'll be the ones not able to maintain under this new load of taxes.
Maybe they ought to
consider the situation Maryland found themselves in. They had a budget shortfall and so they figured... hey, let's tax the rich. Let's go after the millionaires. So they levied a 6.25% tax on top of the regular taxes for the rich. The governor of the state declared that these richest 0.3% of filers were "willing and able to pay their fair share." A year later.... 1/3 of the millionaires have left the state and Maryland took in 100 million dollars LESS from the millionaires even at the higher tax rate. They left. They said enough. I don't blame them. If the US keeps going after the rich, after the corporations, after the "supposed rich", after anyone that makes more than $200,000 a year then they will see a lot of people either leave, limit their income, or go out of business.
Tell me, where's the incentive to better your life if you're just going to be attacked by your government?

I think that Obama already bypassed the Constitutional requirement of being a natural citizen to qualify for the office of President. Obama knows that constitutions can be invalidated. Zelaya is simply asking that the constitution be relaxed. Obama got the US Constitution relaxed when he got into office. For Obama to support Zelaya is logical. I suspect more relaxing of the US Constitution will happen. I hope it will not happen to the Honduran Constitution. That is what I think today.
Oh, my....
Somehow I missed this post. I think we should just tax stupidity. The government would get far more money that way.
