    Worst idea ever (end presidential term limits)... but since it's just an opinion piece there's nothing to worry about.

    Yes they could go back to having a president for four terms or life even

    He believes term limits limit democracy.But democracy must be limited in a Republic.
    Term limits should be extended to Congress and the courts too. We must stick to a 2 term Presidency. FDR broke the tradition by getting 4 terms ,but 4 previous Presidents tried and failed for 3rd terms (Grant, Cleveland ,Wilson and Teddy Roosevelt) .

    I cannot imagine living in a country where the judges are elected. In such a country, do you REALLY think the judges will rule according to law, or will they rule according to the needs of their benefactors????

    Judges are elected in this country all the time . It's only at the Federal level where the judges are appointed by the political leaders.
    That being said ...I was not saying Federal Judges should be elected. What I would like is their terms expire and be subject to reappointment .

    Gun control fans in Colorado have embraced the regime's thug tactics...

    Good to see the left embraces our rights.

    Colorado House Passes New Gun Control Laws

    Have we forgotten what sparks these laws? Mass killings! The right has no solutions, and doing nothing is their answer.

    Screw your laws, seems people don't much like it when you lefties trample on their rights, and your response is to trample on them some more.

    Just trying to save some babies and innocent people from loony's with guns. Get out of the way, and you won't get trampled!

    You want to talk about saving babies?

    Nothing wrong with people trying to save schoolchildren from getting slaughtered.

    As if I want schoolchildren slaughtered? Unlike the pro-abortion cried I don't children slaughtered before or after birth. And yet somehow they can't make the connection between their cheapening of life and such massacres.

    I knew you would go there rather than have a solution to loony's shooting babies (which you obviously have NONE). I have already said a sexually active human should have the knowledge and responsibility not to get pregnant was my solution to abortions just like humans who have resources and a good doctor have.

    Better than law makers getting between patients and doctors, and sticking stuff up a female, and berating and humiliating her, or making it such a traumatic event she is scarred for life with no help and support through it. Or telling a doctor how best to treat his/her patient. Or supplanting a scientific view for a religious one.

    People with their own resources can/do/and have ignored others telling them what to do, and you can only bully the uninformed or the ones with no resources into your way of thinking.

    There's a connection? What is it?

    Dude, the only ones bullying anyone are liberals. Thays what the pay war about, bulging the voters in Colorado and trying to silence them while smeating them in the process and flooding the state with that outside money you allegedly hate.

    If there were no abortions we wouldn't have any massacres? Well why didn't you say so?

    That's reading a lot into what I said. But if you don't value life enough to protect the most helpless why would you expect people to respect it later?
