The Vail Spot: Blog Hiatus...

Nemo me impune lacessit

No one provokes me with impunity

Article 1, Section 9, Constitution of the United States

If this is the law of the land...why in a republic (little r) and as republicans, do we allow mere POLITICIANS to the right to use a "title of office" for the rest of their lives as if it were de facto a patent of nobility. Because, as republicans, this should NOT be the case...just saying...

Blog Hiatus...

I'm very sorry that I've not posted anything in 2 weeks. I've been rather down lately. Mostly, I've been watching what's going on in Washington, and trying to keep the top of my head from exploding. I'll have something posted on the bullshit debt ceiling deals tonight.
