Gonz refuses to see the part of his conservative doctrine would even fuck him over. Before we knew you could poison ground water, before we knew a great many things about how the actions of one person, or one small business, or one corporation can screw us all, well that is when the constitution was written. He'd like to revert to that time, but there is NO GOING BACK. Regardless as to weather GW is real or hype (and I personally am willing to look at both possibilities with realistic skepticism), there are many laws the protect us from unscrupulous greed. Gonz literally said that "greed is good". I don't know if he teaches that in his household, but if you ask me that is pretty fucked up. Fortunately the majority of people are coming to that realization as well, and we do have laws in place to protect most of us from the raw greed of others.
I realize that I am on the left on enough issues that folks mistakenly see me as a liberal, but at least I am willing to look at both sides of issues. I agree that there are things wrong with government as it stands. I agree that there is much regulation that is sheer nonsense, but we live in an increasingly populated world and if we don't act in the best interest of the masses, we are fucked! Times have changed, Gonz and constitutional "literalism" supporters have not, and I am sorry and also not sorry to say that folks with that attitude will either die off or be killed off when their desire for complete freedom infringes on the rights and well being of others. That is just survival of the species. He seems to have completely closed his mind to anything but the sheer fantasy that we can revert back to the founders visions. I am absolutely sure if the founders knew what we know about our world now, they would have been willing to adapt and evolve. In my opinion, it can be fun to argue with him but it is utterly useless because of his absolute unwillingness to learn information he doesn't want to agree with. A closed mind is a useless mind.
