The Constitution is a suicide pact

The American Constitution is a deadly and dangerous document. Every member of the military, every commander, judge, member of Congress and every president partakes in this suicide pact: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same.”

This blind allegiance and fanatical faith have resulted in wars and death of tens of millions who died for what is nothing more than a piece of paper containing radical left-wing ideas. Consider that nothing is more vital than life itself, for once we are dead nothing else matters.

Millions have been killed; tens of millions maimed and countless fortunes lost fighting for an archaic constitution terribly outdated in the modern age when security and protection from terrorism is now the paramount necessity. No creed, constitution or document, whether religious or secular, exceeds our security and survival as a species.

All we need to do is wear a lapel pin of our flag, and trust our President to keep us safe. Get over it, Obama. Get your priorities in order. Flag pin over Constitution.
