Re: Legal confusion
Once again you are inventing your opponent's argument to suit your fancy.
​
"Once again"? Just a minute ago you were accusing me of ignoring it. Now you're accusing me of having invented it. Is there any wonder everyone thinks you're an idiot?
​
What sort of a scenario qualifies as a 'promotion' of State policy into Federal policy?
​
Well, I gave a scenario when I explained how Dr. A's slavery example wasn't convincing.
​
Except, you know, the words your opponents are actually using to formulate their arguments.
​
Which "words" am I ignoring? Be specific.

Re: Legal confusion
You're eliding a stupendous amount of history in order to make Federalism seem like an orderly process of promoting the results of state experimentation to Federal law.
​
No I'm not. Here's a clue that I'm not: I never said that Federalism was an orderly process of promoting the results of state experimentation to Federal law.

​
Well, ok, I guess. I never said it was, either. I guess that's something we agree on, then.
