Please show me my post wherein I stated I was anything other than displeased with today's ruling?

The problem with you, (and it's legendary) is you like to bitch, but do nothing to solve your complaints.

The problem with you, (and it's legendary) is you like to bitch, but do nothing to solve your complaints.

Still with the insults sunshine. But what else should I expect? I have stated time and time again what the solution is but I will state it again. Don't know why I bother it will still go over your head. Just as it's gone over the head of your cohorts

Since I don't see any hope of overturning the 17th Amendment in my lifetime, vote for the candidate that is the conservative. Not the 'hold your nose and vote' candidate. Not the candidate that makes you feel good and promises to bring intangible assets or promises of entitlements to the job. The one who states and believes by his or her actions, "This is the founding document to this nation. This is what the national government was meant to do as covered in the Constitution." Who cares what party that candidate belongs to. You want conservative, limited government, it isn't going to come about by one party or the other being elected. It will come about only when men (and women) that believe in conservatism are elected. That may mean four parties sitting in Congress, it may mean two, but it won't be by a majority of one. Been tried for 40 years with Democrats and now it's being tried with Republicans. If the first two years are any indication, it doesn't look any peachier

You want conservative limited government? Then you're going to have to walk into the voting booth and make a decision that you may not have done before. You are actually going to have to consider from multiple candidates and make a decision not based on a letter of the alphabet

Unfortunately for your sort you think this can only happen with the Republican party majority. Also unfortunately for your sort this premise has been blasted straight to Hades. Some Republicans are no more conservative than their Democrat counterparts. Just as some Democrats are more conservative than their Republican counterparts. The problem is we've got people like you pulling down the d#mn R lever without a thought other than "Republicans good, Democrats bad". Don't feel bad though. There's an equal majority of mindless doing the same thing with the D lever all around this nation. You'll vote for somebody just so the Democrat doesn't get in. And more's the worse for conservatives that still remember what we were taught about the Constitution, the rights of the citizens of the respective states and their responsibilities.

It's quite evident that conservatism is a movement and is not tied to one party or the other. But you keep trying to tie it to the Republican party. Keep changing the meaning of the word while you're at it too. Because conservative as I was brought up to believe is not currently found in many corners of the Republican party
