j… : The SEdition Acts constitutionality was never challenged so the Court never ruled on its constitutionality. Now did it?

WIJG: What are you suggesting - that no law can be unconstitutional unless the high court rules it to be so?

j… : Of course it cannot.

So, if the Democrats capture both houses of Congress, pass a law (by a veto-proof margin ;>) declaring Hillary ‘Queen for Life,’ and the high court refuses to consider the case, you would insist that the law (and the Clinton monarchy it established ;>) was constitutional?

Or would you insist that the transition from constitutional republic to monarchy was just not unconstitutional?

(aristeides - I think our friend has just earned a new nickname. How about ‘Queen Hillary’s Court Jester?’ ;>)

To: Who is John Galt?
Until the Court has ruled on a law it is constitutional by default whether you or I like it or not.

Most laws never even have a constitutional challenge and are therefore considered constitutionally valid. What is so difficult to understand about that? Playing silly games with sophistic absurdities doesn't help anything. Not that I would ever accuse you of being serious.
