Thread Name: Conservative Cavalry Round THREE!!!
Subject: RE: Conservative Cavalry Round THREE!!!
Will George the Conservative dismantle the unconstitutional "war on drugs"? When (for whatever reason) they wanted to make alcohol illegal, they realized the constitutionality of the question and made it an amendment. When Dow Corning (a Big Business) wanted to make hemp illegal, it was done by a presidential decree. Some constitutionality.

If you will recall, MAV, the 10th amendment was gutted by arch-Republican Abraham Lincoln and his immediate successors in the Civil War and Reconstruction. It hasn't been the same since.
