Monday, in the crowd with Teddy...

Sooo...ooo Teddy Kennedy has come out for amending the constitution to allow foreign born Americans to run for President.
Just goes to show you, even the almighty Edward Moore Kennedy is occasionally wrong.
Look what we have to look forward to a "Schwarzenegger amendment" to our "sacred" constitution.
Dear Ghod!
If by some miracle of political alchemy, Teddy Kennedy is reading this artless blog, then I say him, that it not about Schwarzenegger at this point.
Oh don't get me wrong, Arnie could easily be elected President in the present circumstances.
He'd be a marvelously bad commander in chief, but the republic would survive him.
For years now we've all lived in fear of some monster glam-freak rising up out of Hollywood to crush the United States in his or her sequined embrace.
Gruesome stuff yes but, lets face it...the sort of hambones who rise of tinseltown to Washington D.C. tend to be twits, ideologues, and mediocrities like George Murphy and Ronald Reagan.
Decorously right wing but usually dumb and easily lead astray.
My own personal view is that the famously fickle national electorate would quickly tire of Arnold's toneless Austrian rumble.
But then that is me.
No what this is really about, is preventing the Reverend Moon or Rupert Murdoch from seizing power and ending all pretense of American's exclusive place in the world.
With the wretched likes of them presidentially enfranchised and qualified we can look forward to an America that is naught but a target for leveraged foreign buy-outs.
Bad enough the Commonwealth of Massachusetts has been made the political plaything of a hostile takeover artiste from Utah...now we propose to internationalize this sort of horrorshow??
So far, Orrin Hatch (who has never seen a bad idea that he couldn't worship) and now our own senior senator are behind this awful proposal.
Hatch I can understand...he is a stooge so addlebrained he can hardly recall what catastrophic nonsense he is advocating from one day to the next.
Morbid claptrap like this par for the course for the senator from Utah.
But Teddy?
Our senior senator is a famous partisan, he wouldn't render up an advantage to the GOP no matter how much he liked his nephew-in-law (or whatever Arnold is on the Great Clan Kennedy flow chart).
No...I wonder, d'ye suppose that Kennedy is quietly dickering to get Arnie to change parties?
Maybe not now, but after the election, (assuming Kerry wins of course) when the dems will have all sorts of boons and perks to distribute to cash strapped states like California.
Maybe just maybe, the price of the switcheroo on Teddy's part is coming out for this proposed amendment?
Well...it's all speculation.
Nevertheless, Arnie can turn democrat, socialist, or natural law for all I care...but I am unalterably opposed to amending the constitution on his behalf or anyone else like him.

Sick
Demented
Typical...
