The rightwingnut threads on the debt ceiling have made me wonder... the 14th Amendment is pretty clear in stating that "the validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insuurection or rebellion, shall not be questioned." Isn't what the House is doing, in undermining the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, a violation of that provision?
The Fourteenth Amendment is tyrannical...
I've been calling it such for nearly a decade now.
The Fourteenth Amendment creates a slippery slope in which violates the Bill of Rights, or for the idiots our first 10 amendments.
i'm not sure how one would think that a constitutional amendment violates the constitution. that's not possible, regardless of whether you dislike it or not.
