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.

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 515 Views
Yeah I read that twice to see if that was right *NM* Dark Knight - 11/12/2012 09:36:55 PM 251 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 483 Views

The people of WA and CO just decided pot should be legal; think Scalia agrees? Joel - 12/12/2012 07:25:11 PM 499 Views
FreshMints decided that the almond aroma of radioactive arsenic is very pleasing... HyogaRott - 12/12/2012 08:09:39 PM 524 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 503 Views
But you didn't. Dannymac - 13/12/2012 04:06:05 PM 492 Views
Yup, yup; the Constitution is all about majority rule WITH minority rights. Joel - 16/12/2012 01:56:15 PM 424 Views
Your whole rant lacks any logic HyogaRott - 12/12/2012 03:46:34 PM 523 Views
+1 - logic is not his strong suit. *NM* Anonymous2000 - 12/12/2012 04:21:09 PM 204 Views
His comment references the authors (NOT words) intent in both negative and affirmative. Joel - 12/12/2012 06:45:02 PM 483 Views

Only nominally. Joel - 16/12/2012 03:54:38 PM 483 Views
I was stumped by his phrasing as well A Deathwatch Guard - 12/12/2012 09:31:53 PM 377 Views
But we must go by his words and his understanding of their meaning, without interpretation. Joel - 16/12/2012 01:40:23 PM 475 Views
The SCotUS is no place for raging homophobes. Mndrew - 13/12/2012 04:48:30 AM 614 Views
Sorry you don't like it, but what he said is true. HyogaRott - 13/12/2012 03:11:42 PM 543 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 316 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 194 Views
So then what we need is a definition of homophobia? Jeordam - 13/12/2012 09:56:15 PM 564 Views
Re: So then what we need is a definition of homophobia? kHz1000 - 13/12/2012 11:16:46 PM 511 Views
-phobe : Greek -phobos, adj. derivative of phóbos fear, panic HyogaRott - 13/12/2012 11:32:14 PM 519 Views
Do you have a similar problem with "xenophobia?" Because it's exactly the same thing. Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 01:30:24 AM 447 Views
xenophobia is the fear of the alien... WTF are you trying to say? HyogaRott - 14/12/2012 03:03:09 AM 510 Views
No. You are patently, objectively incorrect. Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 08:39:00 AM 441 Views
An aside. Stephen - 14/12/2012 01:21:32 PM 516 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 317 Views
stop being obtuse moondog - 14/12/2012 05:10:41 PM 491 Views
Hmmmm lets see, people misuse a word, perverting its meaning... HyogaRott - 14/12/2012 07:29:11 PM 461 Views
If everyone "misuses" a word, that becomes an acceptable use of it. Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 10:14:23 PM 477 Views
Re: If everyone "misuses" a word, that becomes an acceptable use of it. Novo - 15/12/2012 12:12:18 AM 495 Views
Always good to have your backing. *NM* Ghavrel - 15/12/2012 03:50:14 AM 268 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 395 Views
actually, you have already chosen stupid by pretending the word means something it does not moondog - 15/12/2012 03:34:35 PM 418 Views
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA, my friend John would strenuously disagree. HyogaRott - 16/12/2012 06:50:19 AM 532 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 464 Views
Double post. *NM* Ghavrel - 14/12/2012 10:14:50 PM 221 Views
