“There is no position which depends on clearer principles, than that every act of a delegated authority, contrary to the tenor of the commission under which it is exercised, is void. No legislative act, therefore, contrary to the Constitution, can be valid. To deny this, would be to affirm, that the deputy is greater than his principal; that the servant is above his master; that the representatives of the people are superior to the people themselves; that men acting by virtue of powers, may do not only what their powers do not authorize, but what they forbid.”

There has never been a time in my life (22 years) where I have not heard [from the majority of the elected] that the government knows whats good for us. That they are above us, we are too ignorant, reckless, we can’t handle our own money, they know how to spend it for us. We can’t drive a nice big safe car because the earth will shed a tear. We can’t smoke because it will kill us 60 years from now. We can’t save our own money for retirement because others need to retire now. We don’t know how to read legislation, you need a team of lawyers and several days! [A law too complicated to understand should never be passed]

Does it sound rational to say that “I don’t like frilly underwear so I’m for legislation banning frilly underwear”? Where in the constitution does one group have precedent over another? Where is it fathomable that we subsidize a small group of people that can’t afford, not can’t obtain, AFFORD, health care? Every year in highschool we were forced to write a paper on mandatory volunteerism, I was always against it, but didn’t see until after that government is forced volunteerism. The Nanny State is almost inescapable today. Our hard work is devalued when a dollar amount is placed on it above what others perceive as rich. What business is it of anyone how hard we work and how much we get paid? What business is it of the government to take from us, our family, our friends, to give to a freeloader 2,000 miles away? Where can they point out in the constitution, that men have the right to the hard work of others? They can’t. They think they are above us, but we know they are our servants. They hate us for using our God given rights. And we can always put them in their place, whether through election or revolution we can always use the timeless words of our forefathers, the Declaration of Independence, again.

Sotomayor will be confirmed as a Supreme Court Justice [or Supreme Court Legislature in her mind]
I guess we can’t have people being judged on their merits, and they can do a 180 when they are under pressure and not receive criticism.

Of course every dem voted for her with 9 reps and 2 indies also voting in favor
The 9 republicans were:  Lamar Alexander (TN), Kit Bond (MO), Susan Collins (ME), Lindsey Graham (SC), Judd Gregg (NH), Dick Lugar (IN), Mel Martínez (FL), Olympia Snowe (ME) and George Voinovich (OH).

I’m also having a tough time figuring out why Edward Kennedy (D-MA) can get away with a did not vote but declared support. Some just don’t want to miss the bandwagon even if it means holding onto the Senator title while dying. You can’t do your job, let someone else represent your state full time.

I don’t know what’s left to say at this point after weeks of blather, except maybe that there’s a fair chance of a bona fide Chris Matthews racial leg thrill this afternoon on “Hardball.” He had one just yesterday, in fact, in response to Clinton bringing home those two journalists from North Korea. Can he muster another today or does he need more, er, “recovery time”?

Here is the breakdown of who voted for Sotomayor:
