Ann Barnhardt's a tough broad

Yup, yup.

Hey, the use of that term "broad" may seem pejorative to some.  But they cry crocodile tears, I suspect.

Barnhardt is really, really tough on anybody who favors working the system.  Is she right?  Maybe!

But, I have to object.  I think that we are obligated to work as best as we can with what we've got.  What we've got isn't looking too good at the moment, admittedly.  We are obligated to work with what we've got because free will and sin mean nothing if you aren't doing your very best.  To me, giving up on the system is like giving up on life itself.  It is almost a suicide pact.  We have an obligation towards the Constitution, not to our leaders.  The Constitution is worth honoring---leaders who try to usurp it or dishonoring and their oaths to it are not.  Thus, any criticism of the leadership is just.  Any act towards usurping the Constitution and the rule of law is not.  It is our duty to defend the Constitution the best we can.

The use of the word "broad" isn't necessarily meant as an insult.  For all I know, she may be absolutely right.
