National News

Since this is the law of our land I thought I would start posting information about the Constitution. I admit I have never read it myself (sleeping in class…) so it will be a learning curve for me as well. These are the laws that the courts, even the supreme court have taken an oath and swore to enforce for the goodwill of our country, we all should know what they are supposed to enforce… and what is considered unconstitutional.

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, 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.

--Preamble to the United States Constitution

America Did This to Itself

And now we all must suffer through it.
