The People’s Representatives, led by President Barack Obama, Speaker John Boehner, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, are all skulking inside their secured gated communities shivering with moral cowardice as they attempt to hide their remaining assets inside their boxer shorts, or blouses, as once-trusting creditors pace angrily outside, anticipating the debt default that is to come.
These Representatives are frauds and sharpsters, every one of them. The political system so carefully crafted by the Founders has been destroyed from within by their corruption and by their greed. In a fundamental sense, they have placed themselves in a state of war against the People. From the philosophical perspective of John Locke, the People now have a natural right to remove them from office and to start afresh to protect their lives, liberties and properties, either within a state of nature, or within a newly-crafted civil society.
Patrick Henry, we need your powerful voice once again!

I like your writing because it’s very powerful and passionate.
I still think that the debt ceiling will be raised because it’s really hard for me to imagine that the alternative can take place. Each side is busy demonizing each other but nobody has been very impressive in this entire debacle.
This country deserves better than all this. While so much time and energy is being wasted on this bickering, serious issues that this country faces go unsolved.

And that, Clarissa, is why I like your writing at http://www.clarissasblog.com. In the Eighteenth century, scholars read widely, were well-educated, and possessed of excellent vocabularies. So they wrote with passion and style. Now too many scholars read little, are narrowly-specialized, and limited in vocabulary. So they cannot write at all for a general readership, and they cannot write well for anyone.
