Plot bunny to drive the Tea Party mad . . .

[voluptuary_manque]

The preamble to the Constitution says that it is established "to insure domestic tranquility". So presuming that in some reasonably near future there is a Department of Domestic Tranquility. What does/can it do?

Legalize Hemp?

 

[voluptuary_manque]

I suspect that happened before the Department was founded . . .

It will result in the basis for the plot of Logan's Run. Or maybe Soylent Green.

I would think that someone responsible for domestic tranquility would be a therapist/guidance counselor/mediator.

To ensure domestic tranquility you could take away any tea party members private arsenal. That might stir 'em up a bit.

You fools fret about the Tea Party yet its Democrats who shoot up the place, I'm speaking of Niggaz and Disabled.

Or perhaps some Pastor, or other religious person, to pontificate on the problems and offer a House of Prayer where entreaties to the Deity of choice may be performed:
[Naturally, aided by suitably-sized donations].
[Of course, this could make life a bit tricky for followers of Cthulu].

The alternative would be some buffoon of a politician, aided and abetted by suitable religiousness, to whom nobody would listen.

First they end the "Drug War", which is more about building the bureaucracies than diminishing the suffering of exploited addicts.

Next they pass a law that Congress, The White House and the Supreme Court doesn't get paid until the budget for the next year is passed.

Then they pass a law that says that Congress must meet on the Fourth of July, naked on the Capitol Mall intermingling with their constituents, while all registered lobbyists, also naked with their wrists tied to their ankles, are bungholed by the Congresspersons. Congresswomen may use strapons, double ended if they prefer.
All televised/covered by every media licensed in the US.

At State Houses all over the Country, the States will perform their own purging of the lobbyists, also covered by the local media.

After two or three years, the number of lobbyists will decline and the only last standers will be the Bankers lobbyists.

They could be in charge of the distribution of pot, prozac, xanax, etc.

That makes sense. Or they could be the main funding source for the next generation of similar drugs. Actually, I was thinking of being on the front lines of stress reduction, myself . . .

Here's a better idea... we could deport all of the demorats who ignore the constitution, constantly attack tea party supporters because of the liberal kool aid they've been force fed by liberal media, and do their level best to tax us all into the poorhouse to finance pie in the sky nonsense and university studies of the sex lives of earth worms and house flies.

VM has his head up his ass again.

The 2010 report claims 30% of Americans identify with the Tea Party, the latest numbers are 42%.

Republicans hate the Tea Party because the TP opposes increasing the national debt and increasing the size of the government. Other issues aren't TP concerns.

In other words, the purpose of the Constitution is to prevent guys from getting married?

Interesting. Guess all that stuff about representation and civil liberties is nothing but fluff and filler...

 

[desertslave]

Legalize Hemp?

Yes please!

To rile up the Tea Party, as it is now, start taxing churches and religious TV programming.

Naaah. Many already think churches and non-profits need to pay taxes.

What you refuse to believe is how the fight is really about the national debt (spending) and the size of government. Its not about abortion or same sex marriages or illegals. That's not to say that TP associates don't have diverse interests, but the fight is about the money and the nanny state.

I mean, I have socialist friends who own guns and like capital punishment.
