Saying we used English common law for the language of our own law, or using it, as Scalia did last year, it NOT the same as saying we are still English subjects.

But anyone who thinks we are more Swiss than English in our heritage and ideas is....well, stupid.

Just as is someone who says if one case is overturned, then all cases were wrongly decided. Over a hundred Supreme Court cases have been overturned. Do you know why? Would you care to explain why the US Supreme Court sometimes reverses previous decisions? Perhaps you can research Swiss law, and tell me the answer.

Well of course it's stupid to think our system of government is modeled after the Swiss. Obviously it's modeled after the English, and that's why we have a MONARCHY as our form of government.

Sometimes I think you are so stupid and smartmouthed, that it' really isn't worth my time to respond to your childish crap.
