I know it, yes.
Do you?
You started a whole thread, some 300 posts long now, questioning whether FR was a place for grass-roots conservatism, based on only those scant few quotes. Apparently to you those quotes represented... something. What, exactly? You got me.
You're the one who started the thread, why not tell me?
Maybe this will satisfy the "hunger" of the angry beasts!!!
LOL!!! Do I have to admit I'm a part of the vast right wing conspiracy now?? :o)
FRegards Jim..and Happy Easter!!!
and let's make an example out of one of them and send him home..primary style
Yes......... Well said. If only everyone understood this simple concept. Gov't. was never meant to have this kind of control over our lives.
What about the white buses? You forgot about the white buses!
Again? That's the third time this week!
Principle is.
My principal was white, but the vice principal was black.
"If we put the federal government back in the constitutional cage the founders crafted for it, then these bastards wouldn't have any influence to peddle (and corruption would be a thing of the past). "...owk
Yes......... Well said. If only everyone understood this simple concept. Gov't. was never meant to have this kind of control over our lives.

well said...
You can't. They are dead.
This is starting to sound like it belongs over on the "Beat me in St. Louis" thread.
I get this from you: "I would be surprised to learn that anyone with significant government experience would believe the Supreme Court is the only branch tasked with considering constitutional questions."
Ho-kay.... I'll check back later to see if you gave a tad more definitive explanation. Thanks in advance!
"Relax, don't do it..."
BOOM...BOOM...BOOM...
This was not directed to me, but here is your answer:
"The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the members of the several state legislatures, and all executive and judicial officers, both of the United States and of the several states, shall be bound by oath or affirmation, to support this Constitution" -- Article VI
The second one is that there will be a new President--that Bush will be a one-termer--I can assure you there are many here at FR that would fight you tooth and nail over that.
The third assumption is that the Supreme Court will cut and hack this thing to pieces.....how can anyone be so confident in the Supreme Court when yesterday's ruling regarding public housing occupants being responsible for what visitors do EVEN outside their rented premises--that was a unanimous vote!
One thing is obvious--even yourself said--there is a large amount of unconstitutionality involved with this bill....and that is what we have to live with unless and until someone says otherwise.
And for the record, McCain and his buddies like Shay insist this was only the first in a series. But, why are you so obsessed with McCain and the media....your candidate took care of him!
As it is , the Country has just been shown that the Republican Party s***s on the Constitution, as well--perhaps even more so because it appears from the language the President used in announcing why he was signing the bill, he acknowledges the unconstitutionality, but it didn't bother him--because he signed it--whereas, I've not heard the liberal scumbags talk like that--the Pervert didn't, as I recall. And all the Representatives and Senators (GOP) that voted for it did the same thing....is it any wonder we have youth that have no sense of rightness or wrongness when there are no models to guide them, but there's a ton of models to lead them the other way?
