Thought for today on the
Sine Die Congress:
U.S. House of
representatives: 435 members, minimum age requirement 25-years of
age, term equals 2-years.
U.S. Senate: 100
members, minimum age requirement 30-years of age, term equals
6-years.
So, why the 5-plus-years
difference in age requirements and 4-year difference in serving term
duration? Is not the “House” supposedly equal to the Senate with
respect to “Public Law” abiding? According to the Federalist
papers - basically “directions” on how the U.S. Constitution is
supposed to work or as directed by those so entrusted to understand
such “directions” and thus act accordingly - “By
its deliberative nature, the Senatorial
Trust called for a greater extent of
information and stability of character than would be needed in the
House of Representatives.” Even back then the framers of
the Constitution realized possible shortcomings of the “House”,
on matters consistent with “Trust” and “Character” based on
age! Are there any two more notable or important “Representative”
attributes when considering the “Constitution”, this “Trust &
Character”? NO, so what in tar-nation is going down as this is
unbelievable to say the least let me say this about that! So, our
forefathers had concerns over “Trust” & “Stability of
Character” based on age and possibly upon extended terms of
engagement, or maybe terms of endangerment with the “House”! So
came “Limits”, what a concept! See, back then the average age
before grave-side services was about 36 – so maturity came at an
earlier age. And today, that average age before the “Pearly Gates”,
well into the 8-zero, so where is that maturity start today? See,
back when the Constitution was in the design stage, with respect to
qualifiers of age and maturity and terms, there came an inherent
policing policy that disallowed a forever job. Back then it was never
considered to be a job for life, therefore the only “term limits”
part of that doctrine came upon that of the U.S. Presidency! We did
not want to get into a situation that of a crowning. So what the hell
has happened - as today we see a total lack of “Trust” with
“Stability in Character” but a suggestion and if it is not a job
for life then what is it? As if that requirement in the “Directions”
was run out of town, for almost the entire Congress, not only with
the House” but also with the Senate that was supposed to maintain a
higher degree of standards. Is it the fact that somebody discovered
that making it a job for life could let them rob us out of our life,
liberty and pursuit of happiness? Look, everything seemed to be in
proper working order up until the 80s, then we found an about face
and once in, there was no stopping the take-over! Was then not Jimmy
Carter the “Last Great President”, until Obama showed up? Here is
the deal today, Congress abandoned the “ship” and basically has
called for a Sine Die Adjournment – which means they
are not allowed to receive a salary when such is in effect during the
normal session cycle. They have not permission from “We the People”
for this time off, as we just gave them the entire month of August
off, with pay mind you! Now this exercise in “Sine Die” is what
those in Congress is supposed to do when that representative body
sees it necessary to adjourn, from gridlock or other situations that
threatens the basic foundation this nation was built upon, that of
the Constitution - as when the paycheck stops it makes one think
twice and maybe then the “Trust” reenters the scene and they get
back to work instead of truancy practiced like a kid gone wild in a
candy store. Look, Congress is AWOL, don't you get it. And of course
the Sergeant of Arms doesn't care, as when Congress is gone AWOL it
is time to get some rest as I am sure that by now he or she is tired
of baby-sitting a Bozo bus load of clowns. OK, the Sergeant was
“blackmailed into leaving his post”, thanks Bob.
If that were not the case they would all have been incarcerated by
now, as it is the Sergeant's duty to make sure they act to uphold
liberty, by maintaining “Trust” and maintaining “Stability in
Character”. They are Non-performers and it is hurting this nation
so much, each and every day we allow it to go on, it is nauseating.
We need a coup, as we have a good president yet he has not a body
between him and us that is supposed to be there to protect America's
interests. Our mouth piece has gone silent, a violation of the 1st
Amendment! It sucks... as “We the People” are getting screwed the
way Congress operates today. “Do Nothing” is a treasonous action
their inaction, upon the Constitution. It is spelled out that we
expect “Trust” but if we let them get away with it...we can no
longer “Trust” them as the behavoir “at large” goes beyond
any reasonable penance. It is apparent everyday that “Character”
finds no “Stability” when “a majority” of the memberships
only agenda calls for bashing Obama – for everything Obama
attempts, even the way he breaths. When a body so empowered makes it
a point - an unadulterated point - to bash the Commander-in-Chief
with no regret as if an audience applauds it, maybe it is OK behind
closed doors...no it's NOT, as “Trust” finds no shelter for lack
of. So the writers of the Constitution went concerned about age - or
immaturity - but may have missed the boat beyond that “what if”
scenario, when the Senate also started acting immature. I wish
someone would hurry and get that time machine tuned up, so we can
bring back Thomas Jefferson and ask him what he thinks of “His
Congress” today. This “Stability of Character” clause is so
important, especially when we are seeing a total dereliction upon the
duties behind the “Trust” inherent in the upholding of the
Constitution's meaning. When it is allowed to be abandoned and allows
for Obama bashing, then Congress in its entirety is at fault. And the
bashing is controlled from the House, due immaturity and maybe age
affecting this “Stability in Character” requirement. So the
signatories of the U.S. Constitution were not concerned with age on
the other end – why not? Because inherent in the Constitution based
on “Trust & Character”, inherent in that was “Term Limits”,
self-guided principles through an individual's “Stability of
Character”. When a member sees that he or she is no longer
effective or fit for duty, then there is only a single option. But
when money is there to keep the “Distrust” going, out the window
goes also that which should be paramount to prevent such dereliction
and truancy. Look, the Constitution and the “Directions” also
warned of “foreign” influence, and is not the “Lobby”
basically a foreign interest with respect to what is meant by
“foreign”? Sure it is, as anything outside the “Will of the
People” is interference and is a foreign trespass. So yes,
“lobbying” was basically warned against, as it interferes with
the “Trust” and that “Stability of Character”, as bribery
taints those traits so the reasonable person under oath is no longer
reasonable. It is supposed to be “sworn to uphold the Constitution
without eviction“ but in reality it appears that a reading between
the lines finds, “How long can I get away with it”? Look, an
individual so elected takes that oath and soon after allows for
foreign intervention, representation is no longer working the way it
was so designed. We need to get back to that design, not just an “I
Think” posture. When we see such faulting, like we have seen with
Don Young, self-respect lacking calls for self-inflicted retirement –
move over rover and let Jimmy take over. Then again, Don Young has
been immature his entire life, so I don't know if it is age young or
age old that has caused the Constitution to find itself on the brink
of a breach – when that happens say goodbye as you won't have time
to kiss your ass. Look at how Misshell Bachmann attracts attention,
same thing, lack of “Stability of Character”. But the main
problem herein is the House Speaker, John Boehner, who has also
abandoned the “Trust” and “Stability of Character” doctrine
as he has more important business to tend to, called a “Tanning
Booth”. If he spent half the time trying to legislate as he spends
trying to be a “Brown Man”, we may have something to be proud of,
with respect to Congress. Look, Boehner still has a “Boner” ever
since Obama allowed for a a “Tanning Booth” tax to help pay for
ObamaCare! Talk about an erection lasting longer then....In any
event, maybe it is time to at least abolish the “House” and let
the more mature “Senate” deal with the U.S. President, as Obama
is mature, and can be “Trusted” - which equates to a genuine
statesman that does not lack any sense of “Stability of Character”.
Yes we can “TRUST Obama! All the unnecessary bashing, foolish and
if incited by a member of Congress, borderline criminal! Maybe we
went fooled, with George W., as there was definitely a “Trust”
issue, and “Stability” questionable, especially for the “Trust
Me Mission Accomplished” event which even today still finds
suspicion that he was in it for some other reason not yet front and
center with details. I will take that back, Bush did maintain a
“Stability in Character”, the problem being the original
character was rather lame. So back then we learned to live without a
leader and continued to behave, so did the Congress learn to live
without “leadership” but decided it best “quit”! And when “We
the People” decided we once again needed a “Leader” and elected
Obama, well with “Trust” and “Stability of Character”
missing-in-action with Congress, it has never been the same and
continues to ruin our nation – that key component is missing! They
just cannot seem to get it back, and with a job-for-life, maybe they
don't care. When we can no longer accept a president that is genuine
when it comes to these two all important traits, attributes, that of
“Trust & Character”, what are we as a nation? Look, Obama is
the best since Carter, yet he has no support from the Congress. And
here is how bad it gets when we have an AWOL Congress. Some Senator
is now referring to the “Ebola” virus as “Obamola”. When is
enough, enough? Someday, possibly soon, the “House” will come
tumbling down. When that occurs, the Senate will be not far behind,
and when the smoke of failure clears away, we will have “one
nation indivisible” once again and an opportunity to start over, by
making sure those we elect to Congress understands what is meant by
“Trust” and finds also a “Stability of Character” which in
combination allows a refraining away from “foreign” invasions –
like we have seen with Congress in bed with the “lobby” of
discust. So in ending, we have a Congress with 100 Senators that must
babysit 435 immature members of the House. But when the Senate is
also immature, we have a total breakdown and the Constitution
suffers, with that we suffer the consequences. Imagine, this was all
considered in the original doctrine! But I am sure the forefathers
had no idea it could get this bad, as it is today. “We the People”
should not have stood for it this long - for it to get this bad and
out-of-order! Fault and finger pointing? The mirror gotcha and the
“113th freeloaders” are laughing still!
