The 'basis' of this statement is so Un-American that it made its way into Texas recently when the Governor decided its time Texas secede. Amazing. We already fought that war and we aren't going back to it because of Wayward Americans like Perry. I find it all childish political grandstanding that is so hideous it has no place in modern history. So, I am going to put it to rest forever and stop the hideous rantings of the political Right Wing that seeks its 'popularity' for ratings and proft by carrying on as if the old agenda was attainble.
The statement was, "The USA Constitution is STATIC."
This, of course, was being discussed in regard to 'Left Wing Nut Jobs.' It is the long held belief of the political Right Wing of the USA, that the so called 'Left Liberals' of the USA allow too much fluidity in the interpretation of this country's laws. At issue in the year 2009, is the Civil Rights of Homosexual members of our society. I'm am tired of the 'Old Rhetoric' and the demand by the political Right Wing to continue its bigotry. It is dangerous and flies in the face of decency and legality.
From its inception the Declaration of Independence, always came with an understanding that being human was enough to be a citizen of the USA. In that were 'certain unalienable' rights. The Americans today, that see conflicting issues surrounding Homosexuality and Citizenship, have been "W"rong, are "W"rong and always will be "W"rong.
Historically, the USA is built on a cornerstone of Freedom. With that cornerstone comes the RIGHT TO BE EQUAL under the law. The 'academic' understanding of this fluid dynamic of our democray is called "Equality of Ideas." The filmloop below puts this understanding into words and demonstrates the FACT that the laws and authority of the USA are NOT static, but, highly dynamic. It is so dynamic, that as the USA 'aged', 'experienced growth' and 'matured' what developed in the venue of Civil Rights are FOUR Eras. The first ERA was the Founding Era. It began at the inception of the 'idea' of an autonomous democrary and government by colonists as they seceded from Britian. The Founding Era (1770-1790) progressed to the Ear of the Antibellum/Civil War/Reconstruction (1820-1877).
