I asked you and you didn’t answer. Now I know you don’t. SO there is some discernment you have regarding “rights” and “equality” and gender bias, etc. and for what purposes an amendment to the constitution should be used for. Next thing you know, you’ll be wanting women to be forbidden from driving.
Funny, this is just like me and my opinion of the 19th (and other) amendments.
John McCain deserves to be re-elected Senator as much as Jeffrey Damler deserves to be named “Chef of the Century”.
No, it is not. I haven’t even read the text of the ERA, so I am not “discerning” or distinguishing anything. You just wish I was in order to support your argument.
OK. So you are ignorant about the ERA, which came within a whisker to becoming part of our constitution. All the RINOs at the time (and all the dems of course) were singing its praises.
Thank GOD for the neanderthals like Schlafly, Goldwater, and RONALD REAGAN!!
Did you know that only 8 US senators voted against it (one was a dem)? That support for the ERA was in the GOP platform? (Reagan changed that).
And did you know it has been re-introduced in Congress?
The PC claptrappers are alive and well. Just as they were in the 1970s and the early part of the last century.
ROFL!
Much like being strongly in favor of the 2nd Amendment does not make me in favor of Prohibition. Your inability to recognize the above stems from your logical failure--"some Amendments are bad therefore other Amendments are bad." In your case, you feel that the 19th Amendment is bad because the 18th is bad. One has nothing to do with the other.
a little late to make a difference.
what could hayworth do for a ten point shift into his favor?
IOW
vote democrat because republicans will starve children by taking unemployment.
(just end it already, give everyone unemployment even if they have a job.)
I’ll try one more time - please read it slowly. Try to comprehend.
The only relationship between the 18A and 19A that I mentioned was that I used the 18A as ANOTHER example of a bad amendment. There is NO CAUSAL relationship between the two. No ‘If then therefore’ relationship; no AND or exclusive OR operators.
Just a simple example to blow away your flawed logic that since Amendments were allowed by the Founders, that future Amendments would therefore be beneficial.
Obviously, not all are. And the ERA, which nearly became one - which you are ignorant about - was just more PC claptrap, like the 19A.
Except for the fact that the above was never my argument, and that it is a tortuous fabrication on your part, it is an example of something. I submit, idiocy.
Once more:
Me: no like 19A
You: You support Sharia too?
Me: Did the early Founders?
You: They allowed amendments
You used the “they allowed amendments” argument to do what? To refute the notion that I ID’d a time when women didn’t vote, generally, yet there was no sharia? It failed as an argument, completely. There was no sharia. Women didn’t have to walk behind the men, as you flippantly suggested I’d support, since I support repealing the 19A.
But I gave you the BOTD that you really believed “they allowed amendments” was somehow a refutation of my point, and therefore offered that amendments are not all beneficial. And you tortured logic to somehow push the notion that because the 18A was bad, that I used that to argue that it being bad made the 19A bad.
THE ONLY relationship is that they are both examples, IMO, of bad amendments
And you tortured logic to somehow push the notion that because the 18A was bad, that I used that to argue that it being bad made the 19A bad.
"How’d that prohibition thingee work out[?] Or the income tax[?]"
Time for your nap, old man . . . you can't even remember what you typed a few hours ago.
Yep, 2 excellent examples of Amendments gone awry. Notice I didn't mention the first 10, or the 13th, or the 24th? The sole purpose of that statement was to give OTHER EXAMPLES of worthless amendments. There is no "if then therefore" relationship.
Oh, that's easy..
John McCain had Sarah Palin as her running mate.
Sarah Palin's daughter is engaged to Levi Johnson (piss be upon him).
Levi Johnson dated Kathy Griffin
Kathy Griffin appeared with R. Lee Ermey in Run Jonny Run.
R. Lee Ermey appeared with Kevin Bacon in Murder in the First.
Pick one side of the argument, not both: either an example of an Amendment gone bad shows that the 19th is bad also, or it is not. If it is not, then why did you bring Amendments gone bad in the first place?

Are you trying to rationalize with the pissanty one? Good luck with that.
I think Glenn Beck has done an outstanding job of acquainting the American people with their own true history. Americans generally fend for themselves. At least that is how most of us over 50 were raised. Of course there are those who cannot physically do that, and do need help. And then there are others who “Play the system” to get something for nothing. Good parenting, as you know, is sooooo important And good parenting requires God and His Ten Commandments. And a good and Godly nation requires a vigilant spirit. Unfortunately, outside influences took over while most parents, and yes, even the church itself, closed their eyes. That is why we find ourselves where we do, on the brink of defeat. I think that this is part of the message Glenn Beck had for us today. We must reverse the leftward trend our precious nation has taken at the ballot box. Please ee my tag line!
I do hope that Hayworth wins this one. I’m so tired of the double-talking, double-dealing McCain.
Only YOU are making the leap of logic that other amendments gone bad (AGB) demonstrates that therefore, the 19th is bad also. I said twice now there IS NO 'IF THEN THEREFORE' relationship.
The reason I brought up AGB in the first place was to note that just having the amendment process - "they allowed for amendments" - is worthless as a debate point. Amendments can and have been used for good or ill. If my calling out the 16th and 18th as examples of AGB confused you into inferring I meant 'because those are bad, therefore this means the 19A is also bad', that's your problem. And utterly illogical. They stand alone, each as an example of an AGB.
If we applied your standard equally, then we'd still be debating that Representatives (and taxes) should be apportioned according to a formula that counts some persons as three-fifths of a human being.
I can tell your grasp of the 3/5ths rule is very poor.
No one said the founders were infallible. I could have just as easily mentioned the gay 90s (1890s, that is) or any other time prior to 1920.
I also, Mr. Strawman, never said it was a grave threat to the Republic.
And indeed, it is my opinion, just as it was the predominate opinion of large swaths of the population prior the women’s suffrage movement. They were all just a bunch of woman haters, I tell you.
Enlighten us, professor. Right after you explain why you would never vote for a "chick." Again, chicks are either a threat, or they are not. You are dissembling.
Strawman, I never said I wouldn’t vote for a chick again. I said specifically I wouldn’t vote for one for CIC unless her name was Thatcher - a colloquialism meaning she would have to be like the iron lady to get my vote. We have nothing of the sort available at this time.
As for the 3/5ths compromise, I’ll let you figger it out on your own.
As for chicks, only you use the word threatening. Are there other reasons for opposing things other than ‘threatening’. Do you oppose homos getting ‘married’ because it is threatening, or patently ridiculous? What about fur Trapping? Farting in an elevator? Kids texting during class?
"I support [McCain's] position on immigration."
FMR. AK. GOV. SARAH PALIN, 27 MAR. 2010
"We're going to have to secure the borders first,
and then enact comprehensive immigration,
but the border has to be secured first."
U.S. SEN. JOHN MCCAIN, 21 MAY 2010
Amnesty (sung to the tune of Dancing Queen)
In a trance, you can jive, yap like a bored House-wife
(ooo-oooo) See that girl, watch her preen, dig in for Amnes-teee
Friday night and the cameras roll
With Sean or Bill or Geral-do
Where they underhand you softballs, teaching you to swing
Might as well be on Larry King
Anybody with a heart would cry
To see Juan and Pedro and Gomez fry
In the Arizona desert, with the gila monsters
Then havin’ to hear Tancredo’s rants
And when you get the chance...
You are for Amnes-tee, as you tweet, a real Mexi-queen
Amnes-tee, feel the guilt from that Limousine (oh yeah)
As if by chance, you arrive, shakier than Barney Fife
(ooo-ooooo) See that girl, on the TV screen, dig in for Amnes-tee
Like old McCain, you can turn it on
“Guest workers”, “Register”, and “who’ll mow my lawn?”
Looking out for all our brothers, even with swine flu
You parrot Juan’s stance
And when you get the chance...
You are for Amnes-Tee, they cut our meat, and they change our sheets
Amnes-tee, so the elite can learn that Salsa beat (oh yeah)
Just like France, festering hives, creating a third world strife
(ooo-oooo) See that girl, just like Charlie Sheen, dig in for Amnes-tee
I’ve always considered Thomas Jefferson to somewhat gallant. You?
Apparently, he caved when the time came to write the amendment process into the Constitution. /s
He was in France.
Traitor. /s
When are YOU going to run!
You seem to have the fire in your heart...
Get off your fat ass and go for it!!!
All your Palin Bashing berongs to us.
There is nothing you can do about it.
All resistance to Palin is futile.
AJM: Yeah, well it seems California Republicans don’t bother to do any research beyond the commercials. Meg Whitman, at the same time she’s promising in her ads to crack down on the borders was crying about Arizona doing just that.
DH: I think in the end she endorsed the Arizona law.
AJM: I don’t think she did. I think you are thinking of the other gal. I know Fiorina did, after initially saying it had a “racial tone” to it.
DH: Well, she went back and forth on it, so maybe I don’t know what Whitman’s final position was.
AJM: You couldn’t tell from her ads. But Poizner was all over it. He thought that might be his opportunity to get some credibility.
So, not only is Duncan Hunter absolutely clueless regarding a major policy stance in a critical governor's race, Pissant softballed him on the follow up saying no one could tell what Whitman's stance was well before the primary.
Thank God for the canyon and lost signals, huh.
LOL
I’ll be sure to mail you if I need the retard vote
Yes, if it wasn't for all those pesky original documents David Barton comes up with, unless of course he is a forger.
I said nothing about support for Hayworth or anyone else’s opinion.
I simply gave you some advice. If you are trying to garner support for Hayworth, which you seem to be doing, then why antagonize people.
For example, you’ve antagonized me by the irritating and irrelevant comment about my life.
Examine yours.
Make sure you can make a coherent email because we retards have a hard time reading emails from the ruling class .
pissant is just that, the ruling class came and went.
Barton is the same stooge who claimed to Beck and for the world to hear that wine and beer back in the days of the founders had next to no alcohol. He doesn’t know sh*t from shinola.
Your high opinion - apparently - of Palin, has no bearing whatsoever on anything I’ll ever think or any politician I ever will or will not support. Works better that way to figger things out for oneself.
LOL. Ruling class? You have your head stuck up the GOP rear end so far, apparently, you can’t even see your queen is an amnesty queen.
i thought of a shorter route: John McCain to Sarah Palin (running mates) Sarah Palin to Alec Baldwin (SNL) Alec Baldwin to Kevin Bacon (She's Having a Baby)... 3 degrees to Kevin Bacaon haha! this is fun...
Yes you are absolutely right. He is a lunatic, and you are the genius. I think the government uses velvet chains on their useful idiots, will you be getting those?
LOL. How pathetic. A subpeona from a f***** idiot like Garagos equals an FBI investigation? You can’t possibly be this stupid. Actually, I take that back.
And good grief...when are you ever going to grow up and quit calling people names just because they don't agree with you?
