This blog has evolved into a series of rough drafts of thoughts and ideas that inhabit my brain. And if you read my blog regularly you realize an editor is worth their weight in gold, unfortunately I have neither. Also I still talk about the Dallas area and what is going on around here.

Constitution??hmmmmm!!??!!??
Many people say our constitution is good, some say it is great, absolutely no one says its perfect. Our Supreme Court is definitely out to prove it is not perfect.
I understand we all share the right to free speech and yes even the one percenters have this right. They do not have the right to use undue influence to sway government action. If we as a people believe we are equal then equal access to our representatives should be protected. The Supreme Court in its recent decisions on election/campaign laws have decided equal representation,is no longer part of our constitution by allowing unlimited monetary influence they are manufacturing inequality in our political process. They take an oath to uphold the Constitution, yet they seem bound and determined to initiate its' demise.
On a side note I am starting to see some comments that Progressive = communism. Not sure how people make this comparison. Granted these seem to be coming from rightist individuals and groups, but still a bit off. If you read my blog regularly you know I want to revive the 1912 progressive policy, but with a bit more of a conservative leaning so I am taken aback by the communism comparison. They were never anti business, just more pro corporate responsibility.
Have a great day.
Long live the Constitution, the Constitution is dying
