I am going to ask you the same question I asked pissant (and have yet to see answered by anyone. Do YOU have the stones to try?)

In your zeal to control others’ lives by ignoring the Constitution, what exactly is it that would set you apart from the likes of Obambi, Pelousy or Harry Reid?

Your logic is faulty and extreme.

If I don’t agree with you that drugs should be completely legalized, then I’m trashing the US Constitution. There’s no middle ground, only your definition of the US Constitution applies, and I’m trashing the document if I don’t agree. That’s faulty logic—a false dilemma.

Plus, you present another false dichotomy. Even if I was ignoring the US Constitution, it doesn’t mean I’m like Obama or Pelosi. Opposition to the unfettered distribution of hard drugs is not the same thing as taking property from one citizen to give to another, forcing people to enroll in government health care, etc.

You see the WOD as a simple black and white issue, but that is an extreme view of the US Constitution. I’m not trying to insult you. Even if you could stack the SCOTUS with sympathetic judges and overturn the WOD, the states would set an amendment speed record to grant that power back to the fed. No significant portion of the voting public will ever support the sale of meth, crack, etc. at Wal-Mart.

I’m not posting this to try and convince you to change your mind or because I have the “stones” to refute you. I’m posting this so that others will see the faulty logic in your posts.
