where in the constitution does it say that? literally the entire point of the constitution is to give the people the chance to challenge the president and the government when we disagree. fucking liberal twat.

If I like the video does that mean I agree with Chris Matthews, or do I recognize the stupidity of Chris Matthews statement?

i believe you are retarded, he may be the president and may deserve our respect (you claim that not me), but i own 3 copies of the constitution and have read it many times, no where does it say to not question the president. he represents us, especially the morons that voted for him, so it is our job to question him and make him explain himself. Why dont you go read the constitution then come back when you actually understand what you are talking about

where in the constitution does it say that we must respect the president? where? in fact the entire point of the constitution was meant to keep government a function beneath the people, not to allow it to raise itself to a respected place in our society.

Matthews is courteous enough to prove what a douche he is for us.

Romney is in no way a "literalist when it comes to the Constitution", not even CLOSE! He's a corporatist and a theocrat. That being said, Matthews is a complete fucking idiot.. The POTUS is not a king, and there is nothing in the Constitution that deals with how he shall be addressed.

he is such a knob, yeah I said knob, what of it.
