Tea Party speaker supports slavery but not women voting
...or does she simply not know her Constitution?

Here's a funny article from RighWingWatch.
In it biker/speaker/not-so-great-student Belinda Lee said (at local not-quite-a-million-more-like-a-hundred Tea Party rally) that,
"We don't care about all those Bill of Rights that came AFTER the original. We want to go back to our Founding Father's views and beliefs".
As the author wryly notes "Bee may want to THINK through her position : getting rid of all those later amendments and returnign to the vision of the founders would not only make slavery legal and abolish women's right to vote, it would also allow President Obama to run for a third term."
Ouch.
