Our Constitution is being violated

Submitted by Frank Livingston, Aug 31, 2014 11:43

Our Constitution says three things about the responsibility of the federal government for our national defense. First, "provide for the common defense" is our national government's top priority; second, our national defense is the only mandatory function of the national government; finally, national defense is exclusively the function of the national government. However, it is also the responsibility of every single politician, starting with your mayor, city/town council, county supervisor/commissioner, state and national/federal House and Senate member that signs an oath of office to support and defend our constitution.

Each and every politician takes an oath of office to support and defend our Constitution, especially the preamble, along with Article I, Section 8, Clause 1 both requiring us to "provide for common defense" of this nation. How in the world can a mayor, town/city council, county commissioner/supervisor, state or national/federal House or Senate member ignore this? They placed Cultural Marxism i.e. political correctness and the constant pandering they must do to gain votes and secure campaign contributions over our national security i.e. "provide for common defense."

Terrorists can't be called terrorists

It's because so many (most) of our congressmen and women are too busy taking bribes and worrying about re-election and their legacy and offending some criminal when they should be concerned with doing the job they supposedly ran for, the advancement of the prosperity of the American people.
