Levin or Ron Paul, pick your poison. Both of these guys have militant followers who adamantly insist that their interpretation of the constitution is infallible and if we disagree with ANYTHING their guy says, we hate America and the founding fathers, etc. Oh, and their endorsements for elected offices are also infallible. ;-)
>> Like in HIS 2006 in his book Men in Blackand his radio show he explains how the minority party Senate (Dems at that time ) cannot constitutionally block the GOP nominees for POTUS + majority Senate judicial appointments because the constitution says the Senate majority has to approve of them. OHHH, but wait, only 3 years later 2009 after saying that, Levin tells the GOP Senate minority to block all Obama SCOTUS judicial appointees in Senate. Yes ,we must believe the US constitution changes with party rule according to Levin. <<
Could be worse. Ann Coulter's view of history and the constitution doesn't even change with which party is in power, but with what audience she's talking to on that given day. Either the civil war had nothing whatsoever to do with slavery (talking to a tea party group in Georgia), or "our party freed the slaves" (rebutting a RAT about civil rights on national TV), according to Ann. I suppose you could logically accept both viewpoints if you presume that the GOP randomly decided on the spur of the moment to pass the the 13th amendment in 1865 just for the heck of it. ;-)
>> Liberals will always win against arguments like these. Constant losing is getting old <<
There are also numerous examples of their side doing the same thing, and changing the rules depending on who's in power (i.e. Joe Biden claiming its an impeachable offense for a President to attack another country that's not an immnent threat to us... whoops, nevermind!). The problem is that the media will cover for the Dems hypocrisy. They won't cover for Levin when he shoots his mouth off.
I see your comparison of course but where they split is that Levin flips his principles with administrations as he is loyal to Republicans, even though he claims he’s not.
Paul will never join the neocons.
But Now Ron ???? He’s the original ‘fail at everything’ cult hero idealist libertarian. If he pitches an idea its surely DOA and his cultists seem happy with that.
I think Rand is a bit more practical politically than Dad was, But he’s still the acorn.
But are they the sole legitimate interpreter of the US constitution like Levin is? He is like Moses interpreting the commandments.
His opinion trumps the SCOTUS, and he works for the Landmark legal foundation too.
You diss Levin and you must hate the constitution.
