If I had a nickel for every time I've started a question with "exactly where in Article 1, Section 8 of the US Constitution is the enumerated power for Congress to...." I'd have a sh** load of nickels.
and so would I.....The problem is that both liberals and social(ist) conservatives want the federal government to regulate our daily lives and existance...the only difference is what side of the middle you fall in...nobody has the right to tell me what to do, as long as I do not infringe on anther persons civil rights... it is a real simple concept, one that the framers of our country knew and understood, but now we have socialists on both the left and on the right....as I stated, the constitution, as written, applied literally, would piss off both liberals and conservatives....this is why I no longer call myself conservative...I am a strict constitutionalist...and I dare any social conservative or liberal to challenge me
