Destroy the prepositional phrase facts for verb adverb fictional lala land and call it language.

quote: ORIGINAL: Thadius That has been answered already. The reason that exact wording doesn't appear, is because not even the Constitution defines it. The SCOTUS has, when referring to the meaning of the term, relied on English common law for the definition, and modified accordingly. The Constitution doesn't define "natural born citizen" for the same reasons it doesn't define "history", or "article" or any of a thousand other words or terms. It isn't a dictionary, and it uses words and phrases as properly understood at the time. As far as I know SCOTUS has never used the term "natural born citizen". Vattels defintion stands. If I am wrong please give me the cases. I have seen/read/skimmed many cases concerning mere citizenship; none on point.

quote: marbury v madison doesnt address that. Oh, but it does: "It cannot be presumed that any clause in the constitution is intended to be without effect; and therefore such construction is inadmissible, unless the words require it " It is inadmissable to argue that "citizen" and "natural born citizen" mean the same thing. If by your third sentence you mean we must refer to English common law for the defintion of "natural born citizen" (and I'm not sure you do; I've my doubts in general about that sentence) then Obama is in trouble. That definition has four parts, as discussed above, as included in The Law of Nations

Well, I feel vindicated. [:)] It was just a hunch on my part but as it turns out... http://www.crashtheteaparty.org/ quote: ORIGINAL: Politesub53 quote: ORIGINAL: Sanity I bet a lot of those signs were made by Libtards like you who are merely trying to obfuscate the real issues, which are record deficits and an erosion of Liberty. On a lot of them there isn't even any indication that they were at a Tea Party rally, anyone could have made the sign and taken the picture. So here we have it, Liberals are misspelling signs and going around the country pretending to be dumb ass Republicans.... Sanity sees right through the ruse and saves the day. This is making me think though, maybe you should scrap the health care bill and spend it on spelling lessons.

Considering the website has only been live since 7th of april this year.... you are exaggerating, misinformed and grasping for straws again. But, thanks for the link, I now intend to donate to them:)

Sanity -> RE: Tea Party declares war on the English Language (4/12/2010 11:08:24 AM)
I would expect nothing more from you Lucy. But the website shows, and you show that my point is valid. This is how the left operates. Free speech? Legitimate debate? You, they can't stand it. There is no way leftists can win without cheating, and this speaks to the heart of that issue. quote: ORIGINAL: Lucylastic Considering the website has only been live since 7th of april this year.... you are exaggerating, misinformed and grasping for straws again.

One wonders then why all the famous past dirty tricks Republicans have used. Most famously of all Nixon, who cheated when it wasn't even necessary.

Lucylastic -> RE: Tea Party declares war on the English Language (4/12/2010 11:20:22 AM)
you want me to find sites wanting to kill obama, kill freedom of speech for dems (the answer is naff off, I have better things to do with my time) , hell we only have to go to any of cuckys posts and (ir)relevent websites. you see it as cheating?? PUHLEEZE legitimate debate, HAHAHAHAH you have NO clue what that means. And the other baggers I know suffer the same problems

Sanity -> RE: Tea Party declares war on the English Language (4/12/2010 11:59:27 AM)
I see it as subverting the Democratic process, which it is. You think you can justify bad behavior by pointing out other bad behavior? I'm sorry, thats just childish. And MM's bringing up Nixon? Honestly? You guys really need to get a grip.

Musicmystery -> RE: Tea Party declares war on the English Language (4/12/2010 12:02:23 PM)
Nixon was the tip of the iceberg. Point is, your take is a very one-sided view, and as such, inaccurate. The overall point about winning in politics would be much stronger than your parade of fake indignation.

Sanity -> RE: Tea Party declares war on the English Language (4/12/2010 12:11:29 PM)
You want to know something interesting? The Free Republic is posting the name, address, and photographs of the owner of crashtheteaparty.org. Just in case in case anyone spots him at a rally... http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2490291/posts If posting these fake ass Tea Party signs on the Internet is fair, and if sending in Liberals to scream the N word at blacks is fair, that should be fair too. Shouldn't it? And anyone objecting would have to be displaying fake indignation as you say, I'm sure. quote: ORIGINAL: Musicmystery Nixon was the tip of the iceberg.

You'll note I didn't object to the overall point. But as I've noted before, you see the world through left/right glasses, and buying into that arbitrary and inaccurate paradigm prevents any real observation, fostering only blind adherence to a contradictory ideology.

Not all attention is positive Sanity.....I'm not quite sure if I were you(damm a chill just went down my spine) I would feel flattered.

I'm a better judge of who is stalking me than you are mnot, and I'm not just renting space in her head, I own her head - and I'm subleasing what little of it she uses back to her. quote: ORIGINAL: mnottertail Tom; They just want to know where you are at all times, because aluminum is starting to go up in price.
