Given the choice between the opinion of the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court and opinion of GOPcapitalist on what is Constitutional and what is not, I'm afraid that I have to go with Chief Justice Rehnquist.

Yawn. You really should learn the central role that intrinsic evaluation plays in judging the merits of an argument. It will help you avoid fallacious non-responses in the future.

One key point in judging the merits of an arguement is judging the qualifications of the person arguing. Chief Justice Rehnquist has degrees from Stanford and Harvard, as well as 31 years experience on the Supreme Court. You are an unknown. On the one hand the Chief Justice says that the constitutionality of the issue has not yet been definitively decided. On the other hand you claim he's full of it. Let's see...who to believe...Chief Justice or bag of wind...sorry, I still have to go with Chief Justice Rehnquist on this one.

Do you have one of these handy links for the "everybody does it" fallacious non-response?

It's the most popular by far and I sense it about to...no...no...there's something about Jackson now.
