Why won't he answer post 461?
Because that's one of his key "debating" tactics.
Ignore, ignore, ignore the pointy questions .... and then slide off and go lie to someone else who looks green.
Then, after ignoring you for a while, he comes back and says you are tardy, when you press for an answer to your original unanswered post.
Bullshit shoveled with Olympian hauteur is his metier, his shtick, his grift.
Notice that he's always quoting Supreme Court decrees, not the Federalist or Madison's letters or Jefferson's? He posts five quotes from John Marshall for any one of the Framers. He even imitates Marshall in his posting style -- rescripts from the high bench of Non-Sequitur, to the unfortunate proles who must obey them.
I like Andy Jackson's retort: "John Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it ...."
