john @ chez atrios WTFs this freeper manifesto. i second that emotion, but beyond the clinton thing there's a lot of remarkable stuff in that document, like the call to repeal the seventeenth amendment in the name of restoring power to the people. "They've turned this upside down and inside out" indeed.
actually, their entire beef with XVII seems to be that it does something to the constitution that wasn't the intentions of the people who first drafted it. but doesn't that same argument apply to every single amendment? by that logic, they all should go, the abolition of slavery, the right to vote for all citizens, equal protection under the law, etc. maybe they'd be fine with that too. at least until they counted down to #2.
