Doofass- How Classy

Here's an unfortunately all too typical sample of a wingnut comment that I found on some stupid blog or other:

"doofass-the-Clueless: YOU wouldn't

know a FACT if it slapped you right in the head!

Exactly WHERE in the Constitution it provides authority for Bozo and his henchmen Congress to do anything they've done since 1-20-09???

YOU'VE RUN OFF scared like a coward with NO ANSWER to my question.. every time I've asked!!!

It's going on almost TWO DOZEN times I've asked YOU this question...

WHY CAN'T YOU ANSWER THAT QUESTION???

Are you a coward? That is too much of a coward to admit that you can't answer the question?

Are you too stupid??? Too stupid to know that the answer is that NO WHERE in the Constitution does it give Bozo and his henchman Congress the authority to do what they've done???

What is your problem??? Can't man-up because you're an intellectually limited liberal who can't be honest or know any facts???"

Now, that's logic and reasoning.

I know this is futile, but how about this part of the Constitution:

" Article 1, Section 8. The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States; but all duties, imposts and excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;

To borrow money on the credit of the United States;

To regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes;

To establish a uniform rule of naturalization, and uniform laws on the subject of bankruptcies throughout the United States;

To coin money, regulate the value thereof, and of foreign coin, and fix the standard of weights and measures;

To establish post offices and post roads;

To constitute tribunals inferior to the Supreme Court;

To define and punish piracies and felonies committed on the high seas, and offenses against the law of nations;

To make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this Constitution in the government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereof."

I am confident that the person who wrote the above comment is insufficiently literate to have read their way as far as article 1 section 8 of the Constitution, but still.....after 220 years or so, it ought to become fairly clear what the government actually does, even when the President is a Democrat.
