Ashleigh Kenny, a college student from Valdosta Georgia, is causing a stir with a t-shirt she designed and is trying to sell that says 'RIP U.S Constitution' on the front. On the back is a Ronald Regan quote that says 'In the present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem'.

Kenny says she wants to raise awareness with the sale of the t-shirt and says:

“Our government is getting too big. How big can be debated, but the truth is, the government is bigger than the people. Therefore, the constitution is under attack. No matter which way you look at it, it is.”

She appeared on the Bill Maher show on HBO and was photographed with Republican Jack Kingston last week.

She says she wants her fellow young people to raise awareness by wearing the shirt and that she hopes it will become a hit. Some of her critics say it's just irresponsbile of her to design a t-shirt of this manner.

Ashleigh embarrassed the lefties so the only thing they know is to be nasty (as always). Two people make the lefties go nut: Sarah Palin and Ashleigh. Moreover, these two women are cute so the lefties don't know what to do. On the left, the women are fake: botox, collagen injections, liposuction, rhytidectomy surgeries etc (check all the women on the left). Need examples? Use google

Ms. Kenny is guilty of exposing this socialist, Marxist in the W House and his supporters for what he represents. They are so nauseating, they begger description.

Ashleigh Kenny is one to be proud of..VERY proud of. With few words, SIMPLE phrase on a tee-shirt, she inspires countless Americans to realize what a giant catastrophy we are all headed for. The CONSTITUTION is being treaded on tremendously and we are not acting as true PATRIOTS in letting these government ACTIONS transpire. You are only as strong as your weakest link, and the chain in Congress is getting hoodwinked and acting very irresponsible ALL to our demise, our childrens plight is being scored with financial hardship and wreckless principles ... and this President, our leader, is providing this mardi gras. THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA MUST STAND UP FOR OUR CONSTITUTION AND NOT LET THIS DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT (puppet for the left ) trample upon our collective, original rights...ergo, OUR CONSTITUTION.

Mark: Could not agree more with your comments. We need more people like Ashleigh and in her age group to recognize the significance of the U.S. Constitution. I also have sent my praises to Ashleigh (via comment), but can't yet get to the point of ordering t-shirts. That won't stop me from trying. However, I'm not so sure Congress is getting hoodwinked; I believe they are being intimidated with the full force of finger pointing from the administration + the backdoor negotiations (deals) : Remember: President Obama standing at the Podium with his finger-pointing forward, stating "Make no mistake about it, we will have healthcare reform..." Mark, you are so very right. SO, THANKS TO ASHLEIGH, the news appearances, and t-shirts. She is truly a remarkable woman and will be honored to get a t-shirt when the website is fixed.THANKS for your great insight Mark. AND THANKS TO ASHLEY KENNY.
