Spoken like a true lib.....I could have written that for you. Anonymous2000 Send a noteboard - 12/12/2012 05:08:42 AM
You are scared of allowing the people to decided most issues. If the constitution doesn't mention something, it goes to the states. The founders did create a "living constitution", it's called the amendment process.

You live by the 9 unelected justices, you die by them. All of those rights you talk about can be taken away by the black robes. That's dangerous.

SCOTUS Justice Antonin Scalia is brilliant, just brilliant - Anonymous2000 - 11/12/2012 05:09:19 AM 1131 Views
WTF does "I don’t care what their intent was. I care what it was that they intended" mean? Joel - 11/12/2012 09:03:23 PM 670 Views
Yeah I read that twice to see if that was right *NM* Dark Knight - 11/12/2012 09:36:55 PM 304 Views
Part of me pities Scalias decline, because he could once nimbly and convincly argue black is white. Joel - 12/12/2012 07:09:56 PM 642 Views

The people of WA and CO just decided pot should be legal; think Scalia agrees? Joel - 12/12/2012 07:25:11 PM 638 Views
FreshMints decided that the almond aroma of radioactive arsenic is very pleasing... HyogaRott - 12/12/2012 08:09:39 PM 665 Views
I am aware of Scalias "logic," and his rejection of it about a year later with Robamacare. Joel - 16/12/2012 01:51:16 PM 639 Views
But you didn't. Dannymac - 13/12/2012 04:06:05 PM 647 Views
Yup, yup; the Constitution is all about majority rule WITH minority rights. Joel - 16/12/2012 01:56:15 PM 568 Views
Your whole rant lacks any logic HyogaRott - 12/12/2012 03:46:34 PM 662 Views
+1 - logic is not his strong suit. *NM* Anonymous2000 - 12/12/2012 04:21:09 PM 259 Views
His comment references the authors (NOT words) intent in both negative and affirmative. Joel - 12/12/2012 06:45:02 PM 620 Views

Only nominally. Joel - 16/12/2012 03:54:38 PM 633 Views
I was stumped by his phrasing as well A Deathwatch Guard - 12/12/2012 09:31:53 PM 528 Views
But we must go by his words and his understanding of their meaning, without interpretation. Joel - 16/12/2012 01:40:23 PM 616 Views
The SCotUS is no place for raging homophobes. Mndrew - 13/12/2012 04:48:30 AM 769 Views
Sorry you don't like it, but what he said is true. HyogaRott - 13/12/2012 03:11:42 PM 676 Views
Lol. Homophobia is synonymous w/ homonegativism. It's not meant to convey a true phobia *NM* kHz1000 - 13/12/2012 03:28:01 PM 374 Views
Only for people who don't know actually know how to read and understand words. Nice spin though. *NM* HyogaRott - 13/12/2012 05:54:29 PM 254 Views
So then what we need is a definition of homophobia? Jeordam - 13/12/2012 09:56:15 PM 701 Views
Re: So then what we need is a definition of homophobia? kHz1000 - 13/12/2012 11:16:46 PM 642 Views
-phobe : Greek -phobos, adj. derivative of phóbos fear, panic HyogaRott - 13/12/2012 11:32:14 PM 666 Views
Do you have a similar problem with "xenophobia?" Because it's exactly the same thing. Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 01:30:24 AM 596 Views
xenophobia is the fear of the alien... WTF are you trying to say? HyogaRott - 14/12/2012 03:03:09 AM 662 Views
No. You are patently, objectively incorrect. Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 08:39:00 AM 580 Views
An aside. Stephen - 14/12/2012 01:21:32 PM 666 Views
Don't believe me, ask a Greek it is after all THEIR word. I gave you some extra capitals, happy now? *NM* HyogaRott - 14/12/2012 02:56:09 PM 373 Views
stop being obtuse moondog - 14/12/2012 05:10:41 PM 634 Views
Hmmmm lets see, people misuse a word, perverting its meaning... HyogaRott - 14/12/2012 07:29:11 PM 606 Views
If everyone "misuses" a word, that becomes an acceptable use of it. Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 10:14:23 PM 603 Views

Always good to have your backing. *NM* Ghavrel - 15/12/2012 03:50:14 AM 329 Views
and if everryone jumps off a cliff to splatter on the rocks I should just be a good little lemming. HyogaRott - 15/12/2012 07:13:27 AM 536 Views
actually, you have already chosen stupid by pretending the word means something it does not moondog - 15/12/2012 03:34:35 PM 557 Views
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA, my friend John would strenuously disagree. HyogaRott - 16/12/2012 06:50:19 AM 673 Views
and you are a small-minded buffoon who can't come up with real arguments so you resort to nitpicking moondog - 17/12/2012 11:48:25 PM 608 Views
Double post. *NM* Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 10:14:50 PM 279 Views
