POLITICAL THREAD

[DrH. Lecter]

Owning slaves was never a constitutional right. In fact, it was banned in certain locales since our inception. Roe stated we had a constitutional right to abortion under the 14th. Dobbs then revoked it. The two situations aren't similar at all, and you reveal your limited knowledge by insinuating they are.

If you wish to argue that abortion was a constitutional right "to privacy" later overturned in Dobbs then you must argue that the right to slavery was "revoked". In fact, there was never a right to slavery or abortion because the SCOTUS overturned these bad decisions later. You cannot pick and choose which bad decisions you think should still be in play.

 

[DrH. Lecter]

Remember when Joe told a large group of black folks “They’re (Republicans) are gonna put y’all back in chains”?

The Democrats are slaves to identity politics, so it’s in the best interest of their party to keep blacks in a co-dependent relationship, to say nothing of how doing so continues to entrench the welfare / government / poverty industrial complex.

They have practiced a lot of communist tactics over the years and the ones they have used on the black family structure are right out of the communist playbook. Destroy the family structure. Make the mother dependent upon the state. Its all very simple but you need willing accomplices to perpetuate the system they started in the 60's. Very calculated and evil.

I’d like one of our resident lib/dims to say why each of those isn’t a good thing.

1. Racism
2. Defund the DoD
3. Making it harder to vote
4. Revoking rights
5. Climate change
6. Bigotry

 

[DrH. Lecter]

You didn't ask any questions.

Do you really ever envision the DNC saying to black voters....our job is done...now think and vote for yourself?

 

[Caveman Catfan]

Remind us again which side is responsible for revoking one of our constitutional rights for the first time in American history?

The GOP taking on Dred Scott and slavery?

Brown v. Board of Education overturning Plessy?

No one with a brain would say that about Roe v Wade. So, we know you don’t mean that.

 

[HymanKaplan]

Again, who cares wtf Mississippi wants? It was a constitutional right which no state could infringe upon. Now it's not and Mississippi is free to repress away. Because of y'all's conservative court removing our rights.

It ISN'T a Constitutional right. That's the entire POINT. LOL

 

[Caveman Catfan]

We'd better shut this down for a bit, because Mike McD is getting off work soon, and I can't listen to another one of his lectures about feeding the communists on here. 😆

There is a point, perhaps, when you and Shinsplints need to get your own room.

 

[Dionysus444]

You think that decision supports your position that the Constitution grants rights to people?

Yes. They interpret it and can do so however they want. When needed all those 'God-given' rights went up in a puff of smoke. The only reason we have them is because of our foundational document enshrining them. Without it they're nothing more than empty words. As Carlin said, cute idea, but fictional.

No, SCOTUS never acknowledge a right to slavery. They did with abortion. Completely separate legal mechanisms. Again, you're just highlighting your ignorance.

Neither created constitutional rights. Sorry. And you're a lawyer...

 

[Caveman Catfan]

You heard it here first folks. Revoking our constitutional rights “is a grain of sand on a beach”. They do not care about our American rights and freedoms. They will strip them from you and laugh.

This IS a laugh-worthy post. I own my laughter. Very funny. Especially, the “you heard it here folks” carnival call. Very fitting.

 

[Dionysus444]

Do you really ever envision the DNC saying to black voters....our job is done...now think and vote for yourself?

They already do that.

 

[Caveman Catfan]

The primary distinction is that people actually WANT to purchase Trump marketing, where as, with respect to Obama, his propaganda was distributed (with a funnel and feeding tube if needed), free of charge by the politburo. Are you done pissing up a rope yet?

The great merch debate may top the awesome “tip battle” that was recently waged on the Political thread. 😝

 

[HymanKaplan]

What have we learned today?

1. The fascist left is exponentially more inclined to incite poltical violence than the right (we know this to be true, based on the statistical evidence) but they're terrible with firearms, so they should just stick to street beatings, vandalism, and structure fires. THAT is where they really shine.

2. sam still doesn't understand even the BASICS of comedy and satire.

3. Don't F**K with Israel...

 

[HymanKaplan]

Point taken.

 

[Dionysus444]

It ISN'T a Constitutional right. That's the entire POINT. LOL

Yes. Now. Because y'all revoked it. That is the point. From 1973 to 2022 it was.

 

[HymanKaplan]

Yes. Now. Because y'all revoked it. That is the point. From 1973 to 2022 it was.

So you're a strict originalist, and believe that the original Constitution is an immutable document, that should remain unchanged in perpetuity.

I have to say; I didn't see THAT coming.

(edited to change constructionist to originalist, in order to avoid one of Dion's pedantic hamster wheels)

That's what amendments are for. We've had several of them on some pretty big topics.

Your ignorance continues to show. The Constitution does not establish most inalienable rights. And most importantly the 10th Am is very clear. It is and has always been the states right to determine what medical procedure you can have inside its border. If you don't like it then move. Very simple even for a simpleton.

 

[DrH. Lecter]

They already do that.

Then you will help us in getting that word out. Won't you? Joe keeps scaring them back into mental chains.

 

[Bill Cosby]

Yes. They interpret it and can do so however they want. When needed all those 'God-given' rights went up in a puff of smoke.

Wrong as always. Obviously, as usual, you’re engrained in your position and have no desire to learn.

Have a nice day. Hopefully your pager didn’t do too much damage.

 

[bigblueinsanity]

Actually, the greatest is capitalism with a good social safety net. The US is mediocre in terms of moving people out of poverty. Social mobility -- the chance to move up and succeed -- is much greater elsewhere.

AKSUALLY

Not if it's preempted by a federal constitutional right.

Ditto.

The second and most important step is to change "you" to "we".

Does the mouse in your pocket have rabid TDS as well?

 

[Blue Bigfoot]

It's because most of the left is broke, because it's hard to hold down a job with your ears (and mind) closed, your mouth open, and your hands holding a panhandling sign. Are you all going to reword your signs when IC cars are outlawed?

Need GAS battery money...

Dion's probably trying to figure out what an IC car is, and he is positive it's racist.

Let me get this straight. Kamala Harris tweets about a Bail Fund in 2020 that may help some protesters involved in the George Floyd protests.
She didn't bail them out.
She didn't even know this man or any of the protesters that may or may not have committed a crime during the protests. She only pointed out a bail fund that was available if you were arrested during the protests.
A FULL TWO YEARS LATER.....a man Kamala has never met in her life just so happens to have used that fund and commits a completely unrelated crime to the BLM protests.....TWO YEARS after her Tweet.
But somehow in MAGA world that is her fault. 🤡
On the other hand.....Rump incites a full blown riot at the Capitol. Unleashes a mob of red hats on the Congress. Many of whom are actually arrested and charged with crimes like beating cops, theft, vandalism, trespassing and other charges.
Some of Rump's cult are actually convicted of these crimes and serving time in prison....so he decides to sing songs with them....and promises to pardon them if he is elected.
Who is the GD danger to America again?????

Why would people out there simply protesting ever need a bail fund?

What type of people need bail funds, Sam?

She loved the country being destroyed, promoted it, and backed those that did it because it caused National chaos for a Trump Presidency. Watch her face light up even talking about it.

 

[sambowieshin]

False. MAGA = Make America Great Again.

This means securing our borders, rebuilding our military, establishing election integrity, allowing states to decide their abortion policies, stopping the war on fossil fuels, (which also means stopping the government grift associated with renewable energy), and stopping schools and hospitals from transitioning kids without parental consent. There’s other important facets pertaining to the MAGA agenda but I’ll leave that for now.

The only thing missing is a curb of federal spending. Hopefully Trump will see the light on this.

Your TDS posting is embarrassing to read.

I quit reading after secure our borders.

Republicans kill border bill in a sign of Trump's strength and McConnell's waning influence

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell encouraged GOP senators to pass an immigration and Ukraine aid deal. Just four of them supported it. In the end, even he voted no.

I'm serious when I say this. I hope olberman is a typical liberal and cannot shoot guns. Because he is a danger to Donald Trump. He needs to be arrested.

You guys never cease to amaze me with always blaming it back on the Republicans. Why do you pass on this disinformation? Just how stupid are you?

"You might be surprised to learn that Routh wasn't as stable as an anvil."

No, we're not. He is a Biden-Harris supporter. Literally NONE of us are surprised that a Harris supporter is weird.
