Sounds like the duck knows about as much history as he does about the Tea Party, which is very little. Or more likely he's a paid shrill for the looney left.
Stay on him if you wish, but he's not worth wasting any time on.

Stare Decisis is a new and evolved spelling. It literally means 'to stand by things decided' or stand by things already decided. The spelling I used is from 15 years or more ago. You know as well as I that Black's Law Dictionary issues a new upgraded volume every ten years. It's been more than 15 years since I picked one up. You called me a liar and you wouldn't know a lie unless you were the author of it. I gave information from memory. Do you even have a memory?

Why not just admit you made a typo or misspelled it instead of this dishonest little charade?

I didn't call you a liar, but if the shoe fits...
I merely stated you had misspelled it.

Plainly speaking, you're just a lying S.O.B.. Do you know what that means? If not, look it up.

stare decisis is Latin. One of the oldest languages of the western world. Not much has changed especially the term stare decisis.

Sorry, but I think your memory is either impaired or defective.

Well, you think wrong. I'm 100% right about the Court's application of it and when you get down to it, the spelling is unimportant at this point. We all know what we're referring to. It's in this respect like the Constitution and how The Supreme Court interprets it. IT doesn't read the Constitution the same way you do. That's why you disagree with the Court. What I've said and continue to say is: The court will not usually revisit an issue already decided without compelling evidence to warrant reconsideration. That does not include popular opinion as sufficient evidence to revisit.

"I checked Black's. You lied as usual". If that's not calling me a liar I'll kiss your backside until the hair flies off your head.

OldGringo, you didn't call me a liar. DennisDee did. I really do apologize if I accused you of that. I THOUGHT I was responding to DennisDee at the time. My mistake. SORRY.

I not only checked Blacks I read a few decisions all the way back to 1932 where they actually use the term stare decisis spelled exactly the same as today.

Don't you also expect your elected officials to follow the Constitution? Just because the SC said it's constitutional, doesn't make it so. That was a huge blunder on the part of John Roberts. There has been so much slipperiness in the last 5 years or so, that we'd have to back up all the way, and start over--starting with vetting BO.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Faith: You're making the argument quite decisively without help from other sources. Once considered and decided upon by the Supreme Court, that IS the decision point for constitutionality. This is exactly why we have a SC - to be the final legal arbitor without further recourse.
To get back to the original string, the Tea Party members obviously used the shutdown tactic to make their point. My opinion is that they did so knowing it would be unsuccessful and ineffective. I also believe they did so only to satisfy their contributors and local-level supporters. That was just not a great move to solidify themselves in office. Here's why.. The tactic damaged the country - just to make a point. That was wholly self-serving and not related in any way to governing or leading. That's as simply stated as I can make it.
Recent polling from most sources - including as reported by Fox News - indicate that the Tea Party took a huge hit in favorability over the use of the shutdown tactic. The GOP as a whole has also taken a big hit for being unable to control their own members. Maybe this will be the beginning of the end of extremism in the House. I can only hope.
Those on the far right need to recognize that the far right message just doesn't cut it with the mainstream electorate. There are many issues, but this latest episode shows that Cruz and Lee and those of that ilk need to re-boot and work within the given system. If they don't, they'll become insignificant and eventually gone.....
