[QUOTE="inactive, post: 3256700, member: 7488"] The 10th Amendment to the Constitution uses the word powers. It doesn't use the word "rights" despite the phrase in common use "States' Rights." I think that's the pedantry he's quibbling over. I know, "words have meaning," "the Framers deliberately intended..." yadda yadda and all that... As if a state ("of the people, by the people, for the people" mind you) having power over you is somehow functionally any different that saying they have a right to do something to/for its constituency? So for the record, I agree with the points you're raising throughout the thread. [/QUOTE]
