some tea partier insist I don't understand the constitution. So I made a diary asking for some clarity. This really isn't long enough to be a diary so i'm sorry, but I figured this was the best way to insure it was answered
I told him that if the constitution doesn't expressly comment on something forbid or allow it doesn't mean it's forbidden, and he insist that i've misread and that if it doesn't expressly mention it then it forbids it.
I'm willing to bet 100 bucks this guy is totally full of shit and wrong.
Any constituional scholars?
He's using it to argue that almost everything the government does is unconstitutional, the welfare state, the wars, etc...
I hate libertarians... i really do.
