The Constitution - It's Just A Piece of Paper

Call to Action
Matthew 15:10-11 - Jesus called the crowd to him and said, "Listen and understand. What goes into a man's mouth does not make him 'unclean,' but what comes out of his mouth, that is what makes him 'unclean.' "
“I don’t give a goddamn,” Bush retorted. “I’m the President and the Commander-in-Chief. Do it my way.”
“Mr. President,” one aide in the meeting said. “There is a valid case that the provisions in this law undermine the Constitution.”
“Stop throwing the Constitution in my face,” Bush screamed back. “It’s just a goddamned piece of paper!”

As Commander-in-Chief who has also taken the oath himself to serve in the National Guard, surely he realizes that everyone who volunteers to serve they're country takes an oath to protect that "just a goddamned piece of paper!" form ALL enemies foreign and DOMESTIC even with their lives.
That enemy is domestic, that enemy is our president and I've taken that oath six times. Four times Active Duty, once Reserves and the other National Guard, I don't take this lightly, and while I'm no longer under that oath, I'm still taking it seriously - I'm demanding an apology and I ask that you join me, and surely if you are a veteran you will, but if you only pay taxes you might, because this is your country, as a U.S. citizen, you're the boss, not Mr. Bush, it's time somebody tells him so.
Using tools on E-ThePeople http://www.e-thepeople.org/letter/write like I have you can send a letter to the president and your elected officials. It doesn't take much, I simply wrote:
Our soldiers take an oath to defend this "goddamned piece of paper" I took the oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic six times, it means something to me.
I'm insulted - Now I demand an apology.
I don't have to prove anything - it doesn't take a brain surgeon to determine that Mr. Bush said the wrong thing and if he wants to do the right thing, he will apologize.

that he believes the Iraqi Consitution is the most democratic Constitution in the Middle East, and that of course he knows that it will take time to develop a final Constitution, because it took some time for our nation to develop one as well. I immediately thought about the comment he made about it being a "g-damned piece of paper." He doesn't give a good damn about their Constitution. I wish Brian Williams had asked him about that comment!
I wish many would ask him questions that would force him into a corner... but "they" won't now, will they?
He's vile! I'd write him, but you know how it is,,, he's too busy to read his emails and anyway, that WH computer just throws out some quick response that says he's too busy to care.

If not us, WHO? If not now, WHEN?
Trouble is he says a lot about a lot of things, but its all talk no action on the things he should be doing. The things he does damage the nation and all of us.
