But I have questions…

I realize that some, many, view the founders as damn nearly man-gods, who suffered otherworldly brilliance and vision.

We were taught in elementary school to overlook things like genocide of the native population and the fact that many of these man-gods owned, and on the regular threw a fuck or two into the human beings that they owned. But that was ok, what with all that talk of more perfect unions and such… but I have a question.

They crafted a nearly flawless document called The Constitution modeled after the English Bill of Rights and the Magna Carta, and they provisioned within this document the ability to amend it and add to it as the world changed and evolved… but I have a question…

These man-gods modeled a system of checks and balances with the judicial, executive and legislative branches of government keeping any one from seizing too much power or control… but I have a question…

With this perfect system of laws and amendments and checks and balances how the fuck does one account for this gutless, soulless, cowardly, boot-licking motherfucker—re-elected in Kentucky with a net 16% approval rating. How does every non GOP backed piece of federal legislation proposed land on and die on this assholes desk?

Spare me your fife and drums and flags, this is all working as designed 245 years ago.
