The breakup of the United Kingdom???

No, we hate what you assholes are trying to do to the nation, and some of the people in it.

Big difference.

lol, nice meltdown.

A 2 sentence reply is not a "meltdown".

This coming from someone who posted the typical "RW's hate amurica, fuh fuh fuh" tripe is comical.

You don't want a united nation. You want unlimited power going back to the states.

Wrong. What I want is what was intended in the document originally and through its amendments.

For example, States shouldn't be allowed to deny any explicit right given in the constitution.

For other things like Gay marriage, to me the feds have no authority forcing States to issue licenses in this situation, however, they can force States to recognize any valid license from another State, under full faith and credit.

See, not unlimited state power, so your accusation is false, and I expect you to correct it, bitch tits.

The States shouldn't be allowed to deny any explicit right given in the Constitution?

The Supremacy Clause of the Constitution gives the federal government the EXPLICIT power to determine the constitutionality of ALL state laws,

and to invalidate them if they are not constitutional.

Case closed.

What are you talking about?

Actually only the 14 amendment incorporated the bill of rights to the States.

The supremacy clause is about federal law overriding State laws, but only concerning powers given to the federal government.

Now go to the blackboard, and write " I am a Constitutional dullard" 50 times.

And the UK leaving will be a huge defeat for the Left.

Actually, the secession was NOT from the UK, but from rural England and Wales only.....The label "UK" may no longer be applicable.

You seem to be factually incorrect.

Cutting Scotland lose will benefit Britain, by losing a huge drag on its economy and ejecting a huge majority of traditional Labor support.

Quick, then, inform Trump that doing business in Scotland is a losing proposition.....LOL

It is interesting to read his posts, and then your responses that have nothing to do with his posts.

I had to look at what you were responding to and the stupid of NYCrackhead was mindblowing...

These people would not be in our midst if there wasn't safety warnings and lids all over everything...

Let "people" like NYCrackhead walk into target and pick up a jar of fish eggs in sporting goods for $3.25 and "think" it's caviar. The producer could save 25 cents on 1000 lids by not having to stamp "Not For Human Consumption". Multiply that several thousands times and everyone saves.

Lol, money can still be made in the EU and even Scotland.

One can always rent out sheep for shagging.

I fail to see the point.

Most power under the U.S. Constitution, rests with the states. That's the model. It's the progressive retards that have slowly moved to an all empowered central authority. That is precisely what the Founders sought to avoid. But then, history seems to have never been your strong suit.

Its interesting that right wingers on here have all become "Constitutional scholars"......The reality may well be that the country envisioned by the Founders in the 18th century has little to do with the economic and social environment of the 21st century, both here and abroad.

I haven't accepted that regressivism has been rejected. It never goes away. Regressives are like mooselimbs. They don't just give ground and stay away. They'll be working on getting the EU back in and punish them.

EU chief vows bloc will stay united after Britain exit vote | Fox News

The head of the biggest bloc in the parliament fired an early warning shot at Cameron that Britain should expect no free ride as it negotiates its departure.

"There cannot be any special treatment for the United Kingdom. The British people have expressed their wish to leave the EU. Leave means leave. The times of cherry-picking are over," European Peoples Party leader Manfred Weber said.

He insisted that the exit negotiations "should be concluded within two years."

This insistence on a "hard exit" is aimed at discouraging other countries from wanting to leave the bloc in the belief that they might be able to negotiate a comfortable partnership from the outside.

While some find the idea funny that the EU canmake life miserable for the UK, they have a history of doing such things to compel nations to join them or follow the EUs economic and immigration policies.


Google what the EU has been doing to poor little Switzerland.

Trump is polling at 40%.

How can you claim to love a country where 40% of the people are willing to support someone was bad as you claim to believe Trump is?

Trump "popularity" is a direct correlation to hatred of Clinton......The general election should not be compared to the primaries....and most sane people know that.

While there is little doubt that the Founding Fathers foresaw the current political, economic and social reality of today, they did craft a very well designed Constitutional Republic (on the second try) and that Republic has a way of adapting itself to change through the amendment process and case law.

The did successfully foresee that there is NEVER a need for dictatorship and the loss of liberty for the people of America.

So, Freedom of Speech is old fashioned? How about Freedom of Assembly? Or the Right to Trial By Jury?

Hell, what about DEMOCRACY?

I'm talking of Trump vs HIllary polls.


Do you consider Trump an "HItler" analogy as many of your fellow lefties claim to believe?

Because a better trade balancing and more jobs are not important.

With yesterday's historic vote for England to leave the EU, many repercussions will inevitably follow and not many of them in the "positive" column.

Currently the UK comprises 4 countries, and there are strong tendencies from countries such as Scotland and Northern Ireland to ALSO leave the tenuous compact to remain within the UK; this, coupled with the industrial sectors within England wanting to remain within the EU, will spell very hard economic times for the UK's future.

There is little doubt that the ripple effect of our wars in the middle east regions has taken its toll on the issue of immigration from those war-torn countries to Europe.....Britain has chosen to close its borders to such immigration, and yesterday's vote to separate itself from the EU will prove to be an economic and social downturn for that country.

We are indeed living in interesting times.

Scotland is already talking about another vote for Indeoendance.

And then the EU can have another country that is a net negative on the overall economy.

Wales and England voted to stay in, Scotland and Northern Ireland voted to get out.

The main concern is if Northern Ireland as a whole now decided to re-unite with the Republic to stay in the EU, will the hard line unionists stand for it, or will the Troubles begin anew, with each party on the opposite side as before?

Most of the people in the Republic do not want to be reunited with the North.

Link?

I have lived here for 20 years and have talked to very few people who think it is a good idea. Most people want to let it be.

Stupid "conclusion"...as expected.......Look at issues as described in the Fourth Amendment....applicable in the 18 century and anachronistic in the 21st.

As compared to the right that has NO ambition, and rules (whenever they get off their collective asses) altruistically????? LOL
