      Obama: The Constitution is "flawed"

      The Consitution has been amended 27 times, or an average of once every 8+ years. That doesn't scream perfection. The Constitution is an amazing document; a brilliant document written by brilliant and daring men, but it is not perfect. In fact, the first 10 amendments were put through...

      Jill Long Thompson is an idiot.

      FTA: If true, that means that the road was generating $80 million a year. After privatization, Indiana Toll Road's biggest difference is the price | News for Dallas, Texas | Dallas Morning News | Dallas-Fort Worth Transportation News | Dallas-Fort Worth News This says that the toll road...

      Jill Long Thompson is an idiot.

      I said it gave us a lot of money now. Money now is good. I understand that. I have had one big question about the lease. Among the first things done by the private company was to increase the toll rate. Why couldn't the state have increased the rate and generated more revenue? I am not an...

      Jill Long Thompson is an idiot.

      That was an opinion piece. An opinion piece published by a group that advocates for privatization. An opinion piece that didn't cite a single source. Maybe it's true, but it is covered in bias until a primary source is cited or shown. More importantly, that article doesn't say that the toll road...

      Jill Long Thompson is an idiot.

      The toll road was turning a profit for the state every year. Leasing it gave us a lot of money now, but didn't do anything to balance the state's budget. Aside from that, the toll road shouldn't even be a toll road anymore. It was supposed to convert to a freeway as soon as the bond for...

      Is our LTCH in danger?

      Maybe it is a semantic thing, but I don't think that the general welfare clause is being abused, even though I don't agree with a lot of the ways it is used. Where are they rampantly spending money on things which are in no way, or only tenuously related to the general welfare. Your view of...

      Is our LTCH in danger?

      I assume you mean this one I don't think that clause is abused. I think there are differing views about how much it should be used, but all actions taken in its name are clearly within its scope. The commerce clause, on the other hand, is abused. This: does not clearly give the...

      Is our LTCH in danger?

      Agreed. In my view, they could regulate sale and production of guns through the commerce clause (if you ignore the 2A). There is no rational relationship between carrying a gun and commerce, so they can't regulate carrying through the commerce clause. The '94 gun ban regulated sale and...

      Is our LTCH in danger?

      How would carrying a gun fall under the commerce clause?

      Is our LTCH in danger?

      You are missing the point. How will they enforce these laws once they hit the courts? They will charge one person, the NRA will step in and their sweeping dreams will be crushed. There is no federal power that would allow regulation of carrying a weapon,

      Is our LTCH in danger?

      Sure, they can pass any bill they want. How are they going to enforce it? There is no federal power that would allow federal regulation of carrying a firearm.

      Is our LTCH in danger?

      $700 Billion went to their buddies. paying for $300 million guns will not go to their friends. If they wanted to give us commoners any money, they could have done it as part of the bailout. They don't want to give us anything, so they won't come take our guns.

      Is our LTCH in danger?

      Another reason they add them is to avoid takings issues. If they come take something from you, they have to reimburse you for it. With roughly 300 million guns in the country, they will never come take what we have because they don't want to pay market price for 300 million guns.

      Is our LTCH in danger?

      I don't see any federal power that would reach carrying a firearm, either open or concealed. Under what plausible theory could they ban carrying a gun?

      Question for law enforcement

      I understand your desire to protect your family. That's everyone's first job. It is really hard to answer a question or give advice if you won't say anything though. I guess the best I can say is that, as hard is it may be, be patient. Without knowing more, I would imagine that there is a reason...

      Question for law enforcement

      If you go see them everyday, what have they told you? If they say they are still investigating, why don't you believe them? I understand your wanting something done, but wouldn't you rather they take the time to build a solid case than rush it through and miss something? Also, if you...

      Attorney 'dumb' for carrying gun to court

      I think courtroom rules are made by judges. Courthouse rules are made by the county commissioners. At least here, where the courthouse holds more than just courtrooms.

      McCain giving up?

      Palin has the conservative base pretty well locked up. He needs the moderates and independants.
