The "aspirations" of the liberal designers are simply reflecting the lack of moral definition common in the new electorate who come from mostly socialist societies which are rife with corruption which usually accompanies socialism/marxism. The average "immigramt" could give a hoot about our constitution or what is morally right/wrong but only cares about how to get the free "whatever" in this land of plenty. THAT is why one sees the current government pursuit of "asspirations" as they pander to the new demographic and the newly progammed PC youth. We need to get our kids OUT of PC schools, have lots more kids and teach each one about free speech and gun saftey, and how to shoot straight, so they won't injure a right winger.

I was there to look upon our founding documents with my own eyes and reflect upon their genius when I was horribly distracted by a sign on the wall explaining the documents and their "meanings". Of course their meaning was framed through the liberal view and removed all historical significance by ignoring key insights. Within the first three lines, the sign was quick to point out that our Founders believed our rights didn't come from "kings" or "governments" but then went on to ignore where our Founding Fathers believed our rights did come from....GOD! There was no mention of our Founding Fathers belief that our rights come from our "Creator" and not man. Why point out one and not the other? To change our history and heritage, thats why!

It does seem to me that we have arrived at this place, the destruction of these ends. <a href="http://www.imataxpayertoo.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow">www.imataxpayertoo.wordpress.com</a> I believe we are seeing the work of people in our federal government for whom all is relative, there are no absolutes and therefore no accountability and no responsibility. I tend to lean on absolutes such as Scripture and the founding documents of the nation.

This is a travesty and a continuation of our downfall. I plan to write letters to the editor, to my congressmen, to the Democrats and to the rest of the people (not the tourists according to Harry Reid) who are stinking up Congress. We must educate the people about the constitution. Great civilizations die from suicide, not murder. This is a travesty and a continuation of our downfall.

The thinking used to be that the reps had term limits by virtue of their re-election, but now..I don't know. Term limits will probably take away the rights of some people...to re-elect their favorite, but term limits may also impress upon those in office of the seriousness of what they are to do, which is to represent us. It does seem as if some get extremely arrogant the longer they are in office. I was deeply impressed with Sarah Palin's talk of "returning government back to the people". I don't believe I have ever heard anyone say that before. I agree, this "visitor's center" and what they have enshrined there is a travesty. I just heard about it myself this week. It definitely looks like more of us are going to have to get involved in order to effect change. Yes, I am thinking that term limits may be a good idea.

Reid made the statement that this building will keep the "scent" of the tourist out of the building. I wonder what "scent" elected him to his office. This seems to be the thinking of most of Congress, the smell of the common man is a stinch to their nose. We need to have a term limit on these people, they need to learn again who they work for, not aganist. The visitors center that opens today is a joke on the American people.
