Unless you attend a historically Black College, then that's choice not segregation and rewarded with federal dollars.
The first is not a Constitutional concern, per se. Only the second is. Either Sen Obama is as ignorant of the Constitution and interpretative rulings as he is of his own family history, or he is in favor of legislating from the Bench. Neither is good.
BHO believes it is ‘constitutional’ to allow a baby who has survived an abortion to be left to die. That’s all I need to know about him.
I wonder if libs realize an expansionist Court can swing both ways? A case can be made that the Kelo decision (eminent domain) was just such a ruling: despised by many, even including libs.
Attention all “pure” conservatives and Libertarians who think McCain is the Devil:
Please don’t throw out the baby with the bathwater on this one. There are CLEAR differences between the far-less-than-ideal McCain and the sickeningly Leftist Obama, he of raising taxes, talking to terrorists without preconditions, banning guns and appointing “judges with an expansive, progressive view of the Constitution.”
Stay home on “principle,” and you an appeasing foreign policy, the dismantling of the miilitary, a crappy economy, regulations on everything you can think of and a core of activist judges who will impact our legal system for decades to come.
IOW, DON’T stay home on Election Day. Vote for McCain - not because he’s so fantastic (he’s very, very far from that), but to stop an utter disaster. Obama will make Carter look like a good President, and then he’ll be around for another 40 years to continue Carter’s role as perpertual, annoying gadfly/traitor. But if you DO stay home, then please STFU for the next 4 years, because you’ll have forfeited the right to complain.
Obama doesn’t know S*** and isn’t qualified to judge a hot-dog eating contest. And we KNOW his wife is completely unqualified for anything. At all.
“The first thing to know,” Professor Sunstein said, “is that he knows this stuff inside and out, and he has the credentials to be easily appointed to the court himself.”
This is untrue as anyone who watched the 2004 Illinois senatorial debates knows. Obama didn’t know that the standard for people to be eligible to vote in federal elections is the standard for the lower house in the state legislature.
FWIW, I always considereded Times' Week in Review articles an extension of the commentary from the OpEd columns, although commentary can contain news.
This is why staying home on Election Day is extremely stupid - federal judges and the other elective offices - that effectively give the donkeys a pass by not voting.
