Spam.
You just posted those out of context quotes.

[Roscoe]

"Each house of Congress possesses this natural right of governing itself, and consequently of fixing it's own times and places of meeting, so far as it has not been abridged by the law of those who employ them, that is to say, by the Constitution." -- Thomas Jefferson

Endless empty assertions, never a source.

[tpaine]

Hey, you keep pretending that you made a point, -- and I'll keep laughing at your nonsense. - Deal?

[Roscoe]

The Founding Fathers explicitly recognized that governments have rights.

Their statements stand unrefuted.

Naturally.

[Political Junkie Too]

Back in the days of the Founding Fathers, every family was said to have two well studied books in their library. The most important best seller around 1775, of course, was "The Bible." The second best seller in the Colonies was "Blackstone's Commentaries on The Law,"

In other words, God's Law and the People's Law.

[Straight Vermonter]

Ask most Americans where their rights come from and they will say "from the constitution" or "from the government". Its sad but true.

The Founding Fathers explicitly recognized that governments have "rights"

If bureaucratic word games over word definitions make you happy roscoe, please, - do continue.

[Roscoe]

Facts versus question begging.

"It has been frequently held by this court that the grant of citizenship is not inconsistent with the right of Congress to continue to exercise this authority by legislation deemed adequate to that end." -- United States Supreme Court, BRADER V. JAMES, 246 U.S. 88 (1918)

[tpaine]

Word game spam.

There are 38 different referals to the word "right" in my desk thesaurus.

[Roscoe]

And what thesaurus were Jefferson and Hamilton using?

[tpaine]

Thesaurus? - Beats me roscoe.
- Back to our original question:

------- "Bureaucrats are not about to relinquish their control over us without a lot of kicking and screaming." -the author-

Lets ask FR's head bureaucratic expert, roscoe, -- how long he thinks it may take before sanity is restored..

Roscoe? -- Do you think there is any chance your peers will ~ever~ come to their senses?

[You never did answer]

[Roscoe]

Open borders and legalized crack? Hardly.
