Quote of the Day

Congress has not unlimited powers to provide for the general welfare, but only those specifically enumerated. – Thomas Jefferson

Ohh that we had followed this axiom of American constitutional law. Any plain reading of that venerable document would clearly show the intended limited nature of the federal government. How many problems have been created, lives been destroyed, and rights been trampled because of our foolish ways? It's overwhelming to even contemplate.
