There is no other person I know who has a strong desire to see the rule of law enforced. Not just for the people, but also on those who create the law. That person is Andy Horning. Andy and I may disagree on some issues, but the fact is, he believes that we should all be held to the same standard and that no one is above the law. For that, I won’t disagree. So with that, I’m posting an email he sent to the Indiana Republican Liberty Caucus mailing list.

Unless you’d like me to show up alone and look silly, please come to the Indiana State House next Saturday, December 15 (which is the Bill Of Rights day), for a very simple, very direct, undiluted message to the media:

“On December 15, 1791, the Bill Of Rights was ratified to protect citizens from the threat of ungoverned government.

Over the last two hundred and sixteen years, those precious laws have been twisted, inverted and …”interpreted” until they’ve been stolen from us.

We want our laws back.

We are here today to ask that our politicians keep their oaths of office. We say it’s time that all politicians and law enforcement personnel who swore to uphold and defend both the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of Indiana …do just that.

We ask, in short, that politicians obey written laws, as written. No exceptions. No provisos. No ifs, ands or buts.

Thank you.”

I don’t want to talk about taxes, wire-tapping, wars, immigration, gay marriage, the Colts, or the Central Library expansion. I don’t want to talk about Mitch Daniels or even Ron Paul. I want to just ask for the law, as written.

Please pass this message to even those you don’t know. I’ll pass along the time (sometime around noon) once I have it arranged.
