Question Of The Week, 9/17/06
Good Morning and Happy Constitution Day. In his Constitution Day Proclamation President Bush said, "America is grateful to those who have worked to defend the Constitution and promote its ideals. During this observance, we also recognize the profound impact our Constitution has on the everyday lives of our citizens, and we call upon all Americans to help uphold its values of a free and just society". So, this weeks Question Of The Week is. How can we (all of us) uphold the values of our free and just society? I'll post my answer in the Comment Section Monday night.
God Bless America, God Save The Republic.

My first thought...See to it that this generation of children know the Constitution. Don't rely on the school system to teach that. Read and discuss the Constitution with your children--AT HOME.
Second, VOTE! Be an educated voter.
Third, visit the sites of the birthplace of our nation.
Well, the best way we can defend the Constitution is to get rid of people like GW Bush who are trying to shred the Bill of Rights.
My family has never relied on the school systems (yes, plural for systems, both public and private) for teaching our daughters and sons about freedom, justice, and the U.S. Constitution.
I stand with Elizabeth. To defend the Constitution, we need regime change and we need it soon.
We need to keep cleaning out the legislative branch by voting the asshats out, whether they are dem or repube..if they don't quit rubberstamping the crap the decider-in-chief shoves out there..its time for them to go..imo.
How can we (all of us) uphold the values of our free and just society?
I think the answer is to live free. Another way to help is to protest unjust laws, vote for a third party, and contribute your time and money to a third party candidate if you are able to do so.
Like Always On Watch said, people need to know about the Constitution. Quite awhile ago (I think it was during the '70s) a reporter was stopping people to read them the Declaration of Independence. He asked them if they recognized what he was reading. Most of them didn't, and a lot of people got really hostile, saying it was written by Communists or student radicals.
I want to thank you all for stopping by, great answers. I hope I can post mine, I've been having problems logging in, I can't. I keep getting a "wrong password" message and I know it is right. So this weeks question could be my last post for a while. Oh, my answer. I'm going to say teach the children and vote. Be sure to check out all candidates before you vote. All of the good ones Don't necessarily have a D or R to go with their name.
God Bless America, God Save The Republic.
This is nuts! The first time I tried my answer was refused. I got another wrong password message. Then it let me post a comment and even let me log in. Now I'm getting that wrong password message again. I may or may not be posting messages for a while. In case you didn't know this is David from A Republic, if you can keep it.
God Bless America, God Save The Republic.
