Now that we've seen you interpret "Congress shall make no law" as meaning "Only Congress shall make a law," we're beginning to understand your other posts.

That is the plain meaning of the amendment. And we know that judges nor the executive branch, nor teachers, nor school districts, nor anyone else, has the authority to make law in the United States of America. The legislative branch and ONLY the legislative branch has that authority. Care to argue further? YOu don't have a constiuttional leg to stand on.

Absolutely breathtaking. I'm going to type it again, because I'm so amazed by this. You really think that because the Constitution empowers the Congress (and only the Congress) to pass legislation, that the phrase, "Congress shall make no law" in the Amendment 1 actually means, "Only Congress shall make a law".

Admit it -- you're not really a conservative, are you? You're posting for the KGB.
