I notice you left out mentioning Justice Thomas, coward, from your statement. I wonder why?
The truth is the truth no matter how many billions of people believe otherwise. I’m proud to be a conservative, and a Constitutionalist, because we adhere to the truth. Let liberals distort and bear false witness in the name of growing power.
I swear, the times we live in simply boggle my mind. We truly have a case of the emperor with no clothes, and the fear and discomfort is more palpable than a corporate bigshot wishin everyone “happy holidays” because everyones afraid of the C word.
Wake up, GOP! Trump’s numbers exploded when he showed the courage to speak on this topic.
As for you, C Edmund Wright, I can hardly think of a better name than what I already stated. May your chains rest lightly upon you.
Actually, I did mention Thomas in at least one post. He and Scalia are the two sitting justices I respect most and Bork is one who should have been who I respect. When I am torn on a Constitutional issue I am likely to be persuaded by their opinions.
Thus, the tone of your post has proven me correct in my “sweeping generalization” that the birther crowd hurts its own cause because the majority of them seem strident and act like horses asses. I have admitted that I am torn on the issue and can see reasoning on both sides of the NBC issue. I am leaving out the citizenship issue because I have no way of authenticating the Hawaii COLB so I put that issue aside, with doubts.
Thus, I ask for living scholars of good reputation who agree with the birther view of NBC. All I get are insults and and folks claiming I am some kind of anti Constitutionalist or an Obama troll.
Birther behavior - in general - and in general means most but not all - is much like the angry old preacher who had in his sermon notes: “This point is weak, so bang the lecturn hard and yell.”
And no, Trumps numbers did not explode purely for the birther issue. That was part of it, but most of it was that he was attacking Obama on a lot of issues. His relevance shrank to nothing when he focused purely on the birther issue almost overnight.
You and he mis read that badly.
