You can't respond on the issues, so you've in effect conceded by making a personal attack. -- Thanks, john.

Ah, my ignorant friend, you do not even understand the "issue" that you have invented. You claim that when the Constitution says "Congress" what it really means is "everybody."

When the Constitution means "states" it says "states." When it means something even more specific, it says "state legislatures." That was a critical issue in the Bush/Florida case.

You are taking the approach that the Constitution means whatever I say it means. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg could not have said it better. So, you see the "issue" really is your personal stupidity. Or are you so blind and foolish that you cannot see that?
