    Profound words.

    I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted
    a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their
    constituents."

    — James Madison

    "I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from
    wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."

    -- Thomas Jefferson

    “No matter how worthy the cause, it is robbery, theft, and injustice to confiscate the
    property of one person and give it to another to whom it does not belong.”

    -- Walter E. Williams

    Where are the "profound words" and what is your point in posting them. Here's a thought: use your own words.

    Their words very much apply today with Obama as president. You can't or wont see it because of your leftwing ideology. These people foresaw what would happen to this country if the Constitution wasn't followed and the government took more and more of our rights away. This has been happening for awhile now but has accelerated under Barack Obama watch.

    Funny words coming from slaveowners:

    "I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted
    a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their
    constituents."

    — James Madison

    "I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from
    wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."

    I have no "leftwing ideology".

    Once again you are throwing around the usual crap with nothing to back up your argument.

    Really? All one has to do is look at your posts to realize just how far to the left your views are.
