    Wikileaks Reveals US Won't Comply With Treaty Obligations

    The essence of your (apparent) premise can be simply boiled to the following, stated in the first person: "Because one or more other parties does something that is unethical, immoral, and wrong, it therefore justifies and makes it ok that I commit similar wrongdoings ...." Is that how you...

    The Constitution is TOO OLD to have ANY Binding Power...

    No, I'm not - that should have been plain from the fact that I allowed that there could be additional possibilities as to motivation .... :rolleyes: Sorry, Greg - but I'm not getting your point - perhaps you could elaborate a little about what exactly you think it is that I'm wrong about, and...

    The Constitution is TOO OLD to have ANY Binding Power...

    I called you neither - I merely offered the only two possible things I see as a reason or motivation for the post itself, and the way it was constructed - if either apply to yourself, by all means, feel free to man up and claim them. And if you are aware of some third possibility, please let...

    Underage drinking

    Precisely my point ;) ... although I failed to address the gender aspect. If the nation is going to reserve the right to compel someone under the force of law to serve and possibly forfeit their life in defense of the nation, then it is only just that those who may be so compelled at some...

    The Constitution is TOO OLD to have ANY Binding Power...

    You considered that an ad hominem attack ? :eek: I believe that when one goes down the road of calling one side's or the other's political philosophy a "Mental Disorder" one opens the door for a response in kind .... And the example I pointed is relevant because it pertains to exactly the...

    Underage drinking

    Unfortunately, the above might well violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment ...... of the Constitution ..... you know ..... that thing you think ought to be upheld in it's entirety ..... not just the parts you like ......
