You are familiar with the Supremacy Clause, ...Todd,<br />You are familiar with the Supremacy Clause, right? <br /><br />Article VI <br />"This Constitution, and the laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the Constitution or laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding."<br /><br />The more you let your opinion known the more it seems like you have never really sat down and had the US Constitution read to you.<br /><br />B.

(BTW, if you rely on an article to make or support your position, the proper form is to recognize and credit the author. I've pointed out this same omission in previous 'supposed' articles you include in your posts. I suspect you wrote the article.)<br /><br />But the inaccuracy of the statement "Of course we all know 600,000 Americans died and countless were injured to keep the country together and free the slaves." Those KIA's and maimed from the CSA -- about 260,000 Reb KIAs -- were not fighting to keep the country together or free the slaves. Nor were many Northerners, though many still fought, but many others avoided the draft like so many of today's 'Hawks" avoided military service.<br /><br />It is easy to pick apart your ranting, exposing the illogic and outright falsehoods which you think proves your point, but not worth the expenditure of much energy. Anyone who can not see the latest round of voter suppression laws for what they are, should have their pens and pencils confiscated. The trees used for paper are more valuable than ill-formed, mean spirited and nasty opinions.<br /><br /> <br /><br />Ed Peritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10451312147047496887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4649343161125212318.post-64676224888097977272013-07-27T16:26:33.837-07:002013-07-27T16:26:33.837-07:00ll I must say is read the Bill of Rights SteveF. ...ll I must say is read the Bill of Rights SteveF. Once again you are just plain wrong.<br /><br />Ninth Amendment<br />Main article: Ninth Amendment to the United States Constitution<br /><br /> The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.[69]<br /><br />The Ninth Amendment protects rights not specifically enumerated by the Constitution. It was rarely cited before the second half of the 20th century, when it was used as a partial foundation for the right to privacy in several landmark cases: Griswold v. Connecticut (1965), which struck down a law banning contraceptives, and Roe v. Wade (1973), which established a woman's right to an abortion. In Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992), the Court used the amendment to strike down part of another abortion law, a case the Encyclopedia of the American Constitution describes as "the high-water mark, to date, of judicial willingness to use the Ninth Amendment"; between 1992 and 2000, the Court did not refer to the amendment a single time.[90]<br />Tenth Amendment<br />Main article: Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution<br /><br /> The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.[69]<br /><br />The Tenth Amendment states the Constitution's principle of federalism by providing that powers not granted to the federal government by the Constitution, nor prohibited to the states, are reserved to the states or the people. The amendment provides no new powers or rights to the states, but rather preserves their authority in matters not relegated to the federal government.[91]Todd Juvinallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11273611043872087559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4649343161125212318.post-83949183958950135862013-07-27T13:28:05.990-07:002013-07-27T13:28:05.990-07:00This post shows a remarkable lack of 'constitu...This post shows a remarkable lack of 'constitutional' clarity on the part of author. The post misuses the term 'enumerated' when referring to the constitution; we do not have an "....enumerated' constitution", we have enumerated powers of Congress as defined in Section 1 Article 8 of the Constitution. The post also completely ignores the Supremacy Clause (Section 6 Article 2) which states, "This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; and all treaties made, or which shall be made, under the authority of the United States, shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every state shall be bound thereby, anything in the constitution or laws of any state to the contrary notwithstanding."<br /><br />What this means is that state constitutions and laws are subservient to the federal Constitution. <br /><br />The Constitution is a tricky document Todd, and not for the barely literate; it must be considered in its totality to be interpreted accurately.<br /><br />Frisch Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4649343161125212318.post-30572815994153333212013-07-26T16:40:20.616-07:002013-07-26T16:40:20.616-07:00No fantasies here.
