August 5th Houston FaF Smear

And, I’ve got something to say my friends, I never lay down without a fight. One has to assume that the great Founding Fathers of this nation knew what they were doing when wrote the Constitution and Bill of Rights. It’s not like you can change the Constitution or anything.
