Your every assertion is just plain wrong as a matter of fact and reason. That said, I don’t propose to waste more time arguing drug legalization with a druggie.
“AFAIK, no one is arguing otherwise with regard to Congress legislating over drugs crossing the borders. The dispute is over which government - fedgov or the states - have constitutional authority over intrastate drug policies.”
Nonsense. The ultimate aim of the legalizers is just that: legalization, at every level. Arguing constitutional issues with people who are only trying to use them hypocritically as a means to an evil end is a waste of time.
“So I await your “yes” or “no” on the Wickard question in bold above.”
Sorry, not going to go down that rabbit hole with you. I am more committed to limited government and original intent than any of you druggies. You only pretend to be concerned with the Constitution because you hope it will be a means to gaining support from people who would otherwise have better sense.
dsc: Sorry, not going to go down that rabbit hole with you.
Me: I was pretty sure you would duck that question. You can't answer "yes", because you would then be endorsing the constitutional legitimacy of ObamaCare and Cap & Trade under the Commerce Clause.
You can't very well answer "no" either. You would then be forced to admit that you support a fedgov policy that depends on Wickard.
So you run from the question, thus displaying flagrant intellectual cowardice.
