Steve's barking at the whine and cry party

I keep hearing how our forefathers who  believed in the people.
There is a cry that says we have to get back to the constitution, and that our forefathers believed in less government. Power to the people and all that.
Now lets look at history, if they believed in the people so much how come we don't have direct voting for the president.
If they believed in the people how come the original constitution the states would pick their senators.
Those who would cry that we should get back to what our founders intended don't know history.
We may have freedom of speech, but John Adam imprisoned his critics, something that our modern presidents wouldn't dare do. They want less taxes and point to our founding fathers. I guess they don't know know of the great whiskey tax.
Thomas Jefferson another one of our founding father who the free libertarians love to quote. I love to quote the best government is the government that governs least too. It a great quote from a great writer. Unfortunately he was one of the great hypocrites that this country ever had. I'll not get into reason why, at least not in this blog. The only thing I'll say he's the liberal version of Nixon.
Thomas Jefferson Liberal? That's what we were taught in high school, and Alexander Hamilton and John Adams were Conservatives.
If ignorance is bliss how come those in the whine and cry party so angry.
