Drawing the line

I went and voted today. In fact I went out of my way to vote (about 250 miles round trip). I’m currently living in a hotel in Nashville that I moved into a few weeks ago. However, I am still registered to vote in Huntingdon, TN. Thus a long and exhausting trip. If your state has a primary today I urge you to go out and get your vote on.

When I returned to my hotel room I decided to check the news and came upon this story:

Normally I dismiss anything that has to do with Alex Jones since he’s a complete nut job, but I got to thinking about the scenario mentioned in the article. What if the President did suspend the elections and tried to remain in office? It all comes down to where do we draw the line. I ask myself that a lot and I think this situation is where it happens. I could not allow that sort of thing to happen without fighting back. Such blatant disregard for everything this country stands for could not be ignored.

So what is your breaking point?

    Hi Joe,

    I can’t believe you can even listen to anything Willie Nelson has to say. “Mr. I ripped off the USA by NOT paying my fair share of Federal Tax Willie Nelson” has smoked too much weed and is so arrogant I can’t listen to one word of his. Willie is no different than the politicians when he says one thing but does another to improve or empower himself and screw his fellow citizens. Willie used his “fame clout” to get a reduced Federal Tax and not go to jail. The average Joe or Jane would have had to sell all of their belongings and most likely spend time in jail. This does not mean I agree with the IRS and how much Congress has set the Tax rates for the citizens of the USA but laws are there for a reason and until the citizens elect people to change the tax codes to be fairer and balanced then the law is the law.
    Millions of people saw those planes hit the towers and various Universities and Independent Architectural and Civil Engineering firms have looked at the data and the buildings fell because of the airplane fuel and the heat. The whole thing about the President declaring an emergency to stay in office is a conspiracy theory that comes up every Presidential election. The rumor when Clinton was finishing his 2nd term was the same. He will do something to stay in office. That did not happen and it won’t happen again. The Presidency has stood the test of time and the turnover of Power in a Civil and Timely manner will continue.
    Thanks for reading
    Dorothy
