Ted Cruz: The Nasty Newcomer

You mean to stretch and twist the constitution to find some language that says that a man who was growing wheat for his own consumption could be prohibited from doing so ?

Surprisingly, the 2nd is where the SCOTUS has been more favorable to states rights and gun owners....

It is the areas of commerce (interstate trade) that the SCOTUS has been more corrosive of individual liberty, freedoms and states rights !

But I am not a lawyer...so just my 2-cents.

I never knew the antonym of "favorable" was "corrosive".

YOU do not know that the Senate can confirm or NOT the SCOTUS nominee............if more like minded Cruz Senators were elected, liberal judges wouldn't get past the nomination process.......................

Of course it is best to win the Presidency - the ONLY NATIONAL ELECTION - but holding the presidency isn't the only path to controlling the SCOTUS nomination process !

Just holding the Senate Judicial Chairman gavel has significant weight on who does/doesn't make it to the SC.

Obviously, you don't know the Constitution, or the workings of the Legislative branch

Simple FACT JACK ! Originally Posted by Whirlaway

There is no way a liberal president will nominate a conserative judge, so even if the GOP wins the majority how many times do you think the senate could turn down a nomination before the public turned on them? How many are going to be like Cruz? You are not looking a real politics.

Yeah, ever notice how the Libtards have a special hatred
for any minority leader that goes against their Libtard ideas.

They look at them like they are a full blown trader of the cause.

Libtards believe that any minority person ought to be groveling
at their feet in thanks for whatever crumbs fall from their Libtard table.

I say give the Libtards hell Cruz.

SCOTUS has become a political football. There should be no liberal or conservative view of the Constitution. It says what it says. We know what they meant. They provided a means of changing the Constitution that didn't include skillful words from disingenuous lawyers.
