A uniform rule of naturalization, and necessary and proper laws to enforce it?
I actually think for all his imperfections that the guy had some solid over all principles and was not a total sellout.
He also helped establish Constitution Day as a national holiday to be...
I disagree. What right of self-determination do people in a country have if they have no right to determine who may or may not enter their country to assure their own security?
Obviously taken...
Then you'll have to take it up with some more extreme social conservatives, because there are certainly people I know in the movement who think the legality of same-sex sex acts (and perhaps even...
The Tea Party has never supported bailouts and it will never support paying for BP's mess.
That is a significant difference between the GOP and the Tea Party. And Democrats cannot claim any...
Oh, and I agree with your point (via the privacy rights) that our liberties are based on our moral concepts.
That doesn't mean enforcing every type of morality is a good idea, though, and I think...
Dixie, I understand you must be frustrated by this point that nobody is trying to criticize themselves. Frankly, I was having a hard time doing it, but let me just say what's on my mind and then we...
This is a highly questionable claim. Most Republicans who cared about the state of the South Carolina GOP were participating in the hotly contested gubernatorial primary.
The GOP primary attracted...
Decriminalization achieves that. Only California is even marginally ready for legalization, so to expect folks in states like Utah to get on board with full legalization is just too much.
The...
No. Though interestingly, it would be racist if the President were to be called some of the names applied to the last President.
And I am no defender of George W. Bush.
I also think Obama...
Well, in fairness, you can't poll dead people and folks who never came back.
Anyone who favors decriminalization is a friend and not an enemy. The idea of dramatically changing drug policy overnight is not realistic and just like any good drug deal, somebody's got to show the...
I don't consider the source to be credible, or even necessarily the source that printed it. Sorry, but you seem to put more stock in the illustrious Egyptian government than I do.
Nobody on...
I'm starting to come around to the idea that the guy is somehow an anomaly that just won in his own right because of a lack of voter information.
Maybe he actually did pay his own filing fee and...
No, you need to wake up and get your head in the game. Were you also hanging on every word of the Iraqi information minister?
I'm not afraid of being called a racist by people who frivolously call...
The claims about his faith are really not worth entertaining because the evidence is not substantial. This would be a hard thing for someone to lie about living an extensively public life.
Obama...
Side note: He didn't tap her phone. Nor did he plan to.
This new story is really straight forward in my opinion. The students were well within their rights and the Congressman flipped out. He...
I don't believe any of this stuff, but I'm not really sure why anyone would have a problem with an American President being from any kind of religion as long as it didn't make them unable to uphold...
I don't think the issue of birthright citizenship can be addressed by the state governments. If anything, this legislation could force a supreme court decision that would solidify birthright...

This isn't the first time South Carolina Dems voted for a candidate...
Thank you all! That means a lot to me that you would post to this.
You guys may not all realize this, but you've seen me at a lot of different junctures in my life over the years and I sure hope...
Hypocrisy! According to you, it's okay to undermine the Constitution legislatively, but when it comes to actually approaching reform of government in the appropriate and permanent manner, someone has...
I didn't say the founding fathers authored the 14th amendment. I also edited before this post my own clarification that birthright citizenship should not apply to the children of illegal immigrants....
Don't be such a drama queen. Revisiting birthright citizenship has nothing to do with repealing the 14th amendment. It has to do with clarifying it.
Sorry if you've never read about the active...
There's nothing unlibertarian about protecting our border and spending government money on the basic constitutional functions of government. Unless you think all libertarians are against all...
