I think Roberts did not do this willingly. Question - how has he set up things for the future? - DC Warrior 2012-06-29 12:01:42 (110 views)

so, can the feds still enforce the Reagan's requirement that drinking ages be 21 - DC Warrior 2012-06-29 15:50:32 (69 views)

Been wondering about this also. Biggest concern, tho, could be civil rights law? - altamont 2012-06-29 16:54:19 (56 views)

Semantics, as that was the key. What taxes are Constitutional? - gsw_hoops 2012-06-29 16:07:54 (41 views)
