The legal argument of progressives: "that is old law"

[Live_Free_Or_Die]

Just wanted to clear up whose team you are playing for when you dismiss law that has not expired as "old law".

[Kludge]

Old law = law imposed while most or all people represented at the time are dead; law which hasn´t been proven (through a recent vote) to represent the will of the current majority.

See: Constitution (particularly because this "Super-Law" was created specifically to repress the people from doing as they please with gov´t), Republicanism, Tradition.



Playing for progressives? Better than playing politics.

Wouldn't that make the Constitution (and quite a few amendments) old law by definition?

No.

Just doing my part to feed the Beck fanatics and help out with new material. I look forward to an upcoming episode on the progressive judicial cartel. :)
