Just wait til this fall when the Congressional Democrat Desperation Campaign is in full-tilt slime mode
How’d that prohibition thingee work out. Or the income tax. Hell, it wouldn’t surprise me to find out you were pimping for the ERA to pass into our constitution.
there really are no more than six degrees to Kevin Bacon here.. John McCain to Sarah Palin... Sarah Palin to Oprah Winfrey (the interview)... Oprah Winfrey to Whoopi Goldberg (The Color Purple)... Whoopi Goldberg to Demi Moore (Ghost) and Demi Moore to Kevin Bacon (A Few Good Men)... i'm sure there are other routes... maybe even shorter ones...
McCain addresses the racist La Raza
Only a moron would surmise I implied all were bad. It’s called examples - examples that show Amendments are NOT necessarily positive. But since you asked, the 16-19th, 23rd, and the 26th
Hey, just pointing out the failure in your logic: “The Founders are infallible, except when they are not.”
Who said they were infallible? Your logic was “if you don’t want women to vote you must be in favor of Sharia like laws”. A simple example of an enlightened people in an enlightened age showed your idiocy.
Actually no. Watch Glenn Beck and you may learn something. It may not soak in, but that is your responsibility. You could learn when women's right to vote was lost and why.
Glenn Beck’s take on history is shaky, to say the least.
"Women shouldn't vote because the 18th Amendment was a mistake. Besides, the Founders didn't want the Constitution to be amended. Sometimes."
Oh, and can women vote under Sharia law? I’ve never bothered to check.
Your logic is non-existent.
Me: Repeal the 18th
You: You must want sharia
Me: Did the Founders practice sharia
You: They allowed amendments
Me: Not all amendments positive (with examples)
You: gibberish
An a quick check indicates to me that Sharia law does not allow women to vote. Do you have any other opinions about how to make women second-class citizens? Should they be allowed to own property, for example? How about enter into contracts?
When you tie your support for Hayworth to a hatred and dismissal of Palin, you alienate people you shouldn’t want to alienate.
Just a word of advice.
McCain seems to be doing a huge flip-flop from supporting a form of amnesty a few years ago to being tough on illegal immigration now. Hayworth can't let him get away with it.
What did the 19th amendment have to do with those subjects? Answer: Nothing.
What did my giving an example of a time before the 19A when America functioned just fine have to do with the validity of the amendment process to the constitution? Answer: Nothing.
And what does providing other examples of stupid amendments have to do with the Founders, as if they were some how responsible for future generations’ good or bad choices? Answer: Nothing
i”ll admit I am no longer a chick, but I am a pretty good hen. And I certainly vote FOR my country. Actually, I seriously think that where we went wrong was when we no longer required a voter to be a land owner.
When you tie your support or non-support of Hayworth based on anyone else’s opinion, whether mine or Palin’s, instead of figgering it out yourself, you should re-examine your life.
