Rants and Raves for Jan. 18

Quit complaining

“Several rants have been directed against conservative columnist Thomas Sowell, noting that he's an economist, and therefore unqualified to opine about other topics. The New York Times columnist Paul Krugman is also an economist, and a self-described liberal. He writes on various topics (about which he's unqualified), and is arguably more influential to liberals than Sowell is to conservatives.”



Already have it

“I see where the state is considering legislation to restrict gun ownership by mentally disturbed people. They might have a problem with that since the Constitution doesn't prohibit crazy people from owning guns. Actually, we already have a gun rights organization run by crazy people. It's called the NRA.”



Didn’t say it

“If the framers of the Constitution had meant that we are entitled to our own musket, they would have said that. They worded it in such a way as to intend that we are entitled to the guns of our choice.”



Why?

“DearPresidentObama,

Whydo we even need a Constitution any longer, when we have you to issue Executive orders?”
