I too would be very interested in knowing some of what you think is outdated in it?
Please point out some things in the constitution that you think are outdated.
So are there any examples or is it just rhetoric? Lets discuss
You didn"t use the exact word "outdated", but how does the following post of yours nor mean the same thing?Never said it was outdated
That certainly implies that you think it is outdated.It has to be looked at in today's world - not when it was written. Our world today is far different than the world of those who wrote the Constitution.
That also strongly implies that you think it is outdated.What I said was that some of the supremes are interpreting it like we're in the 1800's.
Says the guy who himself, doesn't want to go by what it says.Some don't even give two shits what the constitution says.
Again, if you are going to make such allegations, please show some evidence that the SC issued rulings based on something other than the Constitution.They are removing protections we've had for years based on what their "gift givers" tell them to do.
What Clause in the Constitution supports that and recognizes one's Right to kill an unborn child?Answered above but a prime example is Roe. That was around for about 50 years.
What about the Senate? What about the potus? The current potus is certainly bought and paid gor.Congress and the supremes are bought and paid for.
They sold the "Biden Brand" for years to our adversaries. Biden's collected million$ selling Joe.
....but you don't seem to care about that.
The real psychos usually don't.Joe doesn't go around talking like a psycho
That's what your guy Joe actually did.He doesn't go around saying he wants to be a dictator and have his political rivals arrested.
Then you like a an actual dictator. Joe caused people to lose their jobs.Trump does. I like Joe........he's a gentleman.
That's ok. You are allowed to not like them.I don't like the recent decisions from the supreme court.
But they are good decisions for freedom loving people. Less gov means for freedom.They're not good decisions for peeps. Maybe for religious fanatics, king worshipers and other ilk. They need to do right by the majority.
Amazing that you call following the Constitution, a rat hole.We'll find out tomorrow just how far down the rat hole they've fallen
You clearly like the modern progressive interpretation of the Constitution that allows the gov to make weed illegal.They need to do things that I believe are right. What more can I say???????
Yes Roe VRS Wade being overturned is a shocker to many to be honest but it's the right decision. It was turned back to being a state issue where it rightfully belongs. As a state issue you now have 3 choices.Answered above but a prime example is Roe. That was around for about 50 years. Trump said he would appoint judges to get rid of it. After lying to congress about their stance on Roe so they would be appointed to the court they got rid of it.
They are being rewarded to get rid of certain protections we've had for years. Not a good thing.
In your post you mentioned welfare. Not going to jump on a soap box here but in America the biggest welfare recipients are big businesses.
Biggest corporate subsidies of the last 20 years
Stacker has scoured policy research center Good Jobs First in order to create this list of the biggest corporate subsidies of the last 20 years. The deals are ranked in ascending order of monetary worth and cover a range of industries.stacker.com
Congress and the supremes are bought and paid for.
Yes Roe VRS Wade being overturned is a shocker to many to be honest but it's the right decision. It was turned back to being a state issue where it rightfully belongs. As a state issue you now have 3 choices.
1) petition your state reps to make a law favorable to your position whether for or against it.
2) petition your federal reps to amend the constitution to add abortion as a basic right. If 2/3rds of the states vote to amend the constitution then it becomes a federal issue.
3) move to a state with more favorable laws.
A major problem in this country is getting progressives appointed to change the laws from the bench instead of actually doing things correctly and ratifying an amendment. The constitution is pretty much a perfect document and even has provisions for making changes as the times change is in reality it can never be outdated as some like to say.
A healthy discussion of the topics is always more productive than trashing the other side.Gave you a thank you because that was an honest answer.
Problem is some states want to do away with abortions all together with no consideration for rape or the woman's health.
Why they want to do that boggles my mind.
Had the supremes left roe the way it was this would not have happened. I don't know if it's a case of them being religious fanatics who simply believe that "if it happens it's God's will" or if they didn't consider all the possible consequences of their decision. No matter, it was a bad decision in my opinion.
Sometimes the best move is no move. Let sleeping dogs lie so-to-speak.
And I agree with you here. Those should actually be considerations in the law and this is where petitioning your state reps comes into play. Put the pressure on them to make the changes. If you get nowhere then yes, sadly it may be time to move if your concerned about being raped and needing an abortion or if you have a history of tough pregnancies that may require termination or if something is going wrong with your pregnancy. I get it and would also be very concerned about those issues.Problem is some states want to do away with abortions all together with no consideration for rape or the woman's health.
This I do not agree with. The best move is to always follow the constitution. That being said I realize that there are times when I would agree with this statement. One of those times would have been when the Supreme Court took up the issue of Roe Vrs wade in the beginning. Like 1971 or so IIRC. Whatever the date, if they had just left things alone then it would have always remained a states issue and there would have never been the angst over changing this decision in the 1st place.Sometimes the best move is no move. Let sleeping dogs lie so-to-speak.
That's because the leftists know they do not have the support to make changes the proper way. They have to force their way on everyone else.A major problem in this country is getting progressives appointed to change the laws from the bench instead of actually doing things correctly and ratifying an amendment.
Mine have all been honest answers too.Gave you a thank you because that was an honest answer.
That's up to those States, as to how they want to do it.Problem is some states want to do away with abortions all together with no consideration for rape or the woman's health.
Why they want to do that boggles my mind.
Why can't it be simply that they applied the Constitution?Had the supremes left roe the way it was this would not have happened. I don't know if it's a case of them being religious fanatics who simply believe that "if it happens it's God's will" or if they didn't consider all the possible consequences of their decision. No matter, it was a bad decision in my opinion.
Not if it lets unConstitutional stuff remain legal.Sometimes the best move is no move. Let sleeping dogs lie so-to-speak.
That was the leftists imposing their progressiveness on all of us.One of those times would have been when the Supreme Court took up the issue of Roe Vrs wade in the beginning. Like 1971 or so IIRC.
They were lazy, always. The Chevron Doctrine indulged them.The Chevron Deference also allowed congress to become lazy by intentionally enacting laws that are vague.
Among other stupid BS they did.When they turned puddles on a ranch into wetlands they really went too far...
Some of it I agree with some I don't. The same goes for some of the news, opinion pieces and talking point articles I post. Think "food for thought."So @searcher , have you come around to see the truth? Do you agree with the article you've posted?
What parts of it do you agree with?Some of it I agree with some I don't. The same goes for some of the news, opinion pieces and talking point articles I post. Think "food for thought."
I guess we'll never know.What parts of it do you agree with?
