Of Lizzo And The Flute

There’s been a more than reasonable amount of rather strident commentary about Lizzo aka Melissa Viviane Jefferson being allowed to play James Madison’s crystal flute. None of it makes much sense to me beyond people just using it to rather pointlessly signal their patriotism to either America or her domestic enemies.

Because please! Someone tell me how a Negress getting her mouth on a White slaveowner’s instrument in order to better her situation is anything novel, anything for the Dems and their Blacks to crow about, or for the average American to rant over? I’ll wait. 😉

Oh, and by the way – or by the by-blow as the case may be – Lizzo’s a Jefferson, which might just mean something given his preferences. So, since Thomas Jefferson and James Madison were close friends, there’s even less cause for commentary.

The General Welfare

When dealing with the Liberals who willfully misuse and misinterpret the US Constitution to further their aims to replace America with a nation built upon their ideology of government mandated and controlled non-merit based equality of result it is useful to refer to what our Founding Father’s actually meant.

With respect to the two words ‘general welfare,’ I have always regarded them as qualified by the detail of powers connected with them. To take them in a literal and unlimited sense would be a metamorphosis of the Constitution into a character which there is a host of proofs was not contemplated by its creators.

– “Father of the Constitution,” James Madison

Now, in truth, the Nanny-Statists of the Left care very little for Madison or his thoughts, but Americans do. Referring back to the words, wisdom, and thoughts of the “Father of the Constitution” is always prudent when Liberals foul our Constitution by daring to cite it as an excuse for their beliefs and goals.

Keep your eyes open. Travel light but load heavy, and always put another round in the enemy after they’re down. 😉
