Re: Harry Reid Shopped in Green Valley

Reid --- and let me tell you why. Many think the sheer loudness of the
baggers means something. It doesn't. This is a country that is, for
the most part, moderate. Angle is not even close to moderate. By
holding her extreme views she's directly and indirectly attacked
large swaths of the population -- not good for an election, which is
essentially a popularity contest. I'll stick by my 38% for her ---
which is subject to go to 24% if she does much more talking.

* (one of Angle's exchanges on second amendment remedies)

Angle: I feel that the Second Amendment is the right to keep and bear
arms for our citizenry. This not for someone who's in the military.
This not for law enforcement. This is for us. And in fact when you
read that Constitution and the founding fathers, they intended this
to stop tyranny. This is for us when our government becomes
tyrannical...
Manders: If we needed it at any time in history, it might be right
now.
Angle: Well it's to defend ourselves. And you know, I'm hoping that
we're not getting to Second Amendment remedies. I hope the vote will
be the cure for the Harry Reid problems.

How is this 'recommending' Second Amendment remedies? It seems to me she's
saying that exactly what we don't want. And, of course, she's right about
the meaning, intent and reason for the Second Amendment.

"That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it
is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new
Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its
powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their
Safety and Happiness."

What part of this is so hard to understand?
