Whatever...it's law nonethelss isn't it? You can't deny it based on the court cases. And you can't deny that the founders believed in the unchanging principles therein stated.

How many quotes from the founding fathers (supporting the principles in the Declaration) do you need to convince you? I suspect none would - you are a polemic.

Sorry, you said that it was incorporated into the United States Code as "organic law."

You still have yet to provide the Title and Section.

You can't deny it based on the court cases.

Only if you believe that judges are permitted to write legislation from the bench. News flash: under our system of government, they're not supposed to do that.

And you can't deny that the founders believed in the unchanging principles therein stated.

Didn't deny it for a second.

How many quotes from the founding fathers (supporting the principles in the Declaration) do you need to convince you? I suspect none would - you are a polemic.

None would convince me--because the issue here is not a quotation, or many of them, from the Founding Fathers--the issue here is a United States Code citation that supports your claim.
