Note that, as far as I can tell (corrections welcome, I could be wrong), the Lemon opinion fails to reference the 10th Amendment in any way, just as the pivotal Cantwell and Everson opinions failed to mention it. Crooked Justices twisted the honest interpretation of the 14th A. in Cantwell just as they twisted the reasonable interpretation of the establishment clause in Everson.

Also, please consider appling the "10th Amendment test" to the opinions of any questionable c&s court cases.

Because it is totally inapplicable.

"Also, please consider applying the "10th Amendment test" to the opinions of any questionable c&s court cases."

Alright, it's considered and rejected as not applicable. I do have to go to court for a parking ticket though I see if I can sneak it in there.

Oh, by the way, can you provide me with the text of a proposal for a Constitutional Amendment that is sufficiently explicit in it language as to be beyond misinterpretation by the judiciary?
