Mr. Mellon’s opinion, published on Sept. 28-29, is correct, at least when he says that the Gadiantons are here today, but not as easily recognized as he evidently thinks. Beginning back in my early years, the politically conservative progressives, up until now, have always identified themselves as democrats. Their favorite hate object is, and has been during my ninety-one years, the God-inspired Constitution of the United States of America, and its complete destruction is their #1 goal. Their plea was and is and will always be that the Constitution is out of date and should be rewritten, and by many, preferably in the style of the Soviet (Communist Manifesto) constitution.

John Adams, 2nd President of these United States, said the Constitution was written for the governance of a God-fearing — righteous people. He was right; it’s high time, if not already too late, to repent of our unrighteousness. We better give it all we’ve got and get back to Constitutional government.

We are witnesses of the most corrupt and inept administration in our nation’s history, unless of course you’re in favor of what’s being perpetrated on our national sovereignty.
