So you're admitting, right here and now, that you don't use the Constitution to back up your opinions regarding the government overstepping its bounds....when it's the best document to use on the subject. When it's the ultimate source.
I hate to tell you, but there's a lot about the law that's counter-intuitive (i.e. you can't just common sense it out)
Thanks for giving me another name to put on my list of nonsensicals. I love opposing viewpoints, but not partisan hacks.
I believe in our Constitution, the wording of the Constitution as it would be etched in stone. I won't grab the Constitution to make my cases in a debate. I use my common sense for that. I hope you can comprehend what i just said, because I have an idea that you think that the Constitution is a living document.
I am partisan, and you are partisan...I can admit it, but you seem to think your not? Everyonne is partisan.
Any 5 judges can look at a case and all 5 can come away with a different decision...go figure. Which one is really right? usually it will be the one you agree with, no?
What's this living document bullshit. Where the FUCK did you get that idea.
You're obviously trying to put words in my mouth or attack me for a position I dont have.
For the record, I'm a texualist with some originalist mixed in. I think that the word should be the word. If the law is written "A,B,C" then we should hold people to that. I feel some originalism is necessary, because the Founders meant specific things when they wrote the Constitution.
The idea of living document has been fucked over by people who want judicial activism. No judges dont get to make law from the bench. The constitution IS a living document...but ONLY in so much as the legislature can amend it through the correct process.
Everyone is partisan? Sure. I'll agree with that...but I dont brainlessly cling to one side's ideology. I strive to go where the good ideas are...no matter which side they're on.
Read the sig. Learn the sig. Love the sig.
I'm not trying to put words in your mouth, and apparently I was projecting. I apologize for that.
You believe in the constitition as I do, and yet feel that the government is within it's rights to put mandates on our lives as they are. I just don't see, Vanquish.
