You don't make statements like that without actually meaning them. I am beginning to wonder about JJ's talking about what would happen if Obama failed and there is a massive backlash could happen. And on top of that, what would actually happen. He claimed that if Obama were elected, that there would be a massive backlash where the Republicans would return to their pre-Katrina, if not pre-10/29 levels by 2012 and that he would be easily defeated for reelection. He then explained an America that would be more willing to use the DOD than the DOS in foreign policy, an America whose social and physical infrastructure was totally owned by bankers and salesmen, An America where the most powerful fundamentalist or catholic priest in your town was the judge and sheriff and an America where genetics and phenotype are given the same weight in judging your character as a credit report or police record.

Weird, I remember getting in fights with black kids in Clinton and Bush's versions of America too. I also remember becoming friends with many of them afterward.

Republicans can't do sarcasm.  Because you almost never say anything that you don't truly mean on some level.  Especially when it comes to mean spirited stuff.

This is also why conservatives are really really horrible with political satire.

Yes, because they fear their primordial urges so much, they end up in their own self-fulfilled prophecy of bestial behavior.

No, that's bestiality. Bestial means beast-like.

That's right, folks!  Anger is only an acceptable reaction if you're black or a liberal Democrat.  If Rush didn't want his words to be taken seriously, he shouldn't have said them in the first place.  Bring back the Fairness Doctrine!
Anger is a fine reaction from anybody.  Republicans just make it their M.O.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but this bill does not cover illegals at all (not that it's a bad thing to do that) and Plyler v. Doe has nothing to do with health care.

The Fourteenth Amendment provides that

[n]o State shall . . . deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

(Emphasis added.) Appellants argue at the outset that undocumented aliens, because of their immigration status, are not "persons within the jurisdiction" of the State of Texas, and that they therefore have no right to the equal protection of Texas law. We reject this argument. Whatever his status under the immigration laws, an alien is surely a "person" in any ordinary sense of that term. Aliens, even aliens whose presence in this country is unlawful, have long been recognized as "persons" guaranteed due process of law by the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments. Shaughnessv v. Mezei, 345 U.S. 206, 212 (1953); Wong Wing v. United States, 163 U.S. 228, 238 (1896); Yick Wo v. Hopkins, 118 U.S. 356, 369 (1886). Indeed, we have clearly held that the Fifth Amendment protects aliens whose presence in this country is unlawful from invidious discrimination by the Federal Government. Mathews v. Diaz, 426 U.S. 67, 77 (1976). [n9] [p211]

Appellants seek to distinguish our prior cases, emphasizing that the Equal Protection Clause directs a State to afford its protection to persons within its jurisdiction, while the Due Process Clauses of the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments contain no such assertedly limiting phrase. In appellants' view, persons who have entered the United States illegally are not "within the jurisdiction" of a State even if they are present within a State's boundaries and subject to its laws. Neither our cases nor the logic of the Fourteenth Amendment support that constricting construction of the phrase "within its jurisdiction." [n10] We have never suggested that the class of persons who might avail themselves of the equal protection guarantee is less than coextensive with that entitled to due process. To the contrary, we have recognized [p212] that both provisions were fashioned to protect an identical class of persons, and to reach every exercise of state authority.

The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution is not confined to the protection of citizens. It says:

Nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

These provisions are universal in their application, to all persons within the territorial jurisdiction, without regard to any differences of race, of color, or of nationality, and the protection of the laws is a pledge of the protection of equal laws.


Plyler v. Doe.

Illegal aliens will get health care benefits under a public option.

One would imagine that the editor of the Harvard Law Review, and lecturer in Constitutional Law at the University of Chicago would know this.
