    Which is hysterical because it was Democrat slave owners wanting their slaves votes to count. Nothing has changed after all this time. Now Democrats want illegals to vote in US elections. :roflol:

    The court basically gave Dirty Donald administration a potential do over to come up with a BETTER LIE for why they want the census question.

    Yeah... thanks a lot, Supreme F*cking Court!

    So, now it's official -- the highest court in the land says officially that citizenship DOESN'T EVEN MATTER when counting how many Americans there are.... We are on a crash-landing heading as a nation, and it will be a horrible thing to behold when we finally hit the bottom....

    I thought I read that the citizenship question was on the forms until 1950 and were only on the long forms after that. Is that true?

    Well, we are post-Constitutional. We haven’t interpreted the Constitution correctly for decades.

    But the biggest problem is cultural. The American culture cannot survive an invasion of 100+ million illegals. You are what you eat. If you double your population with third-worlders, you become the third world.

    Well, fortunately, spoiled faux-rich, draft-dodging, epic-lying, conman Donald John Trump has all the answers...

    Thanks for the article - very interesting.

    To answer your question, I don't have a problem with Gorsuch's position in either one of those rulings, and I suspect that most of my libertarian and libertarian-conservative compatriots agree with me. Furthermore, I don't think Gorsuch "wandered off the ranch", either. This may come as a shock to you, but despite our myriad differences sometimes our views coincide with those of the Lefties on the Court.

    Unlike NY Mag, which appears to be concerned solely with partisan victories, I just want the SCOTUS to adjudicate the cases before it in a manner that is consistent with the rule of law, the Constitution and the principles the Constitution is based on. When the Court gets that right I consider it a victory for everyone.

    Nothing has changed? So it’s the Deep South that supports this?

    Agree completely. This is what they were appointed for and paid to do.

    Ruth needs to retire, she is a crazy old bat.

    Consistent with that we are post-Rule of Law.

    As Scalia correctly pointed out shortly before his death, the language in our laws doesn't matter anymore, and when the language in the laws of a nation governed by the rule of written law no longer matter we cease to exist as a nation governed by the rule of written law. We become a nation governed by arbitrary fiat, or to use a term that was used in the past, a nation governed by men - not the law, not the rule of law, not the Constitution, but the arbitrary caprices of men.

    Once you reach that point you have to wonder why we continue to participate in the fantastically expensive charade of pretending we are a nation that is governed by the rule of law, that the language in our laws and our Constitution matter. Why are we paying legislators, executives and jurists huge sums of money to write, execute and adjudicate laws that aren't worth the paper they're written on? To console ourselves in the illusion that we are a constitutional republic instead of a banana republic?

    This mockery of a travesty of a sham has become so farcical it's almost laughable, but the joke's on us so there's nothing funny about it.
