Cause I can find freedom of speech in the Bill Of Rights. Still looking for marriage equality.
And you also find the concept of corporation as a separate legal entity articulated in your constitution? Could you point me to it please?

It's the economy stupid. As the expression goes. It's not going well, the Democrats are in power, so they vote in the Republican. If it was reverse, then the democrat wins.
Plenty of other things going on of course, but in my home state of MA, I think it mostly angry about the economy. Health care wasn't an issue, because we already have a better version than the congress is proposing. And Martha rang a horrible campaign.
My friend nails it -- Steve Kornacki
And btw, women are 0 for 8 in MA running for Senate. So think more sexism than racism.
. You need 51. Just pass the fucker.
All written word comes down to interpretation. Bible, Constitution, U2 songs... etc...
Maybe someday you'll get that.
Your grandchildren will get it...
Unemployment, average 1970s: 7.01% 1980s:7.2%
You keep trying to expand your views on same sex marriage to be a statement about disagreeing on opinions. Which is a distraction tactic.So you admit "equality" is in the "interpretation" of the Constitution.
It's a start.
Now if we can just get you and others to see that there may be reasons other than "homophobia" or "racism" to explain why someone may interpret the Constitution differently than you.
I disagree with you about the economy and all that with respect. That's subjective. There are legitimate viewpoints on both sides. I don't have any respect for your views on same sex marriage. They're not differing, they're just wrong.
Can I be wrong about the issue for reasons other than homophobia?
A reason based around logic. If it's illogical, it looks like a cover for homophobia.Can I be wrong about the issue for reasons other than homophobia? We already have a thread on the subject so just a simple yes or no will do.
Wrong about the Bible and Constitution-they are not art.
U2 music is art however.
1 out of 3 isn't bad.

In congressional testimony on January 20, the nation’s top intelligence official, Dennis Blair, acknowledged that the U.S. government mishandled the interrogation of Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the Nigerian terrorist who tried to blow up a plane over Detroit on Christmas Day. Specifically, Blair was not happy that Abdulmutallab was charged as a common criminal and read his rights, rather than being questioned by the elite interrogation unit announced by President Obama as a replacement for the CIA teams used by the Bush administration.
It turns out Blair was just one of several top counterterrorism officials who were not consulted on the very important decision as to how to question Abdulmutallab. Also on the list: Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano, Director of the National Counterterrorism Center Michael Leiter, and FBI Director Robert Mueller.
Obama administration officials were not happy with Blair’s sudden outbreak of transparency. Within hours of the hearing’s end, Newsweek reported that “Obama administration officials were flabbergasted” by Blair’s testimony, which was “misinformed on multiple levels.” How? For one thing, these officials explained, the high-value detainee interrogation group that Blair described “doesn’t exist.”
That’s not reassuring. A year after Obama’s executive order, the HIG is not yet up and running, and his top intelligence guy is in the dark?
The intelligence failures that led to the Detroit attack are cause for deep concern. But the stunning incompetence of the Obama administration’s response to the attack—laid bare in those hearings last week—is more worrisome.
Still waiting on this INDY...

Some are saying that Obama never really wanted a public option in order to please the corporations. Obama is motivated by a second term more than anything else.
You're right. After almost a year of campaigning nationwide, the president still couldn't spell out what he wanted for health care reform. The public option was supposed to be the cornerstone, but oh, he could do without it.
Instead of leading, he completely farmed out his health care bill to Harry and Nancy.

Shockingly, Harry and Nancy came up with bad legislation with backdoor shenanigans piled on top to bribe their own members. And the public is starting to notice, with the last few governorships, and now Brown's win in blue Massachusetts as the exclamation point.
My argument is simply that Mass voters knew very well that a vote for Brown was a vote to kill Obama policies in the Senate.
I just meant in this forum.
LOL, Once again, it appears that defending Bush qualifies as spinning and ignoring anything that does not bode well for Bush or Republicans. Since you obviously don't know my history, I actually do have my own criticisms of Bush and Republicans.
I don't think your interested in facts considering the way you addressed my own post which had plenty.
I thought you said you were not discussing anything with him because he was not capable of "reasonable discussion"?
The average for the 1970s is incorrect. Here is the average unemployment rates for each of the past four decades:
70s: 6.22%
80s: 7.27%
90s: 5.76%
00s: 5.54% (the alleged decade from hell )
We couldn't afford it, that's why it was stopped, common sense voters in Mass recognized this, and that's why they stopped it-it's that simple.
So, the current system we have now needs to be modified, streamlined and corrected,
NOT eliminated and replaced with something MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE that doesn't adequately fixed the problem and shackle us w something that we cannot afford.
This isn't rocket science, only fiscal soundness.

i think some of this is astute, but i think the victories in VA and NJ are vastly overblown as some sort of commentary on Obama. Creigh Deeds was an awful candidate (i live just over the Potomac in NoVA), so was Coakley, and Corzine was as corrupt as they come.
in elections, one makes a decision to pull a level, hence, all GWB had to do was beat Kerry, and that's what he did.
The word does not exist but you've been showed, I don't know probably a hundred times by many in here how it exists in the interpretation of the constitution, but I guess you covered your ears and shut eyes the same way you do with healthcare everytime...
Its clear now your making up stuff about other people in the forum. I have criticized Bush and Republicans in here before. Where have I lied about Obama? "Think they have won"? This is not a game, its a discussion.
