54. Never watched Westwing , can't see how your
reply is any kind of response to mine. Seems to be sheer personal invective.

As I said, actual progress was made through acts of Congress, much less through the existence of the 14th Amendment.

In case you can't follow the logical implications, that is almost the polar opposite of an Absolutist legalminded attitude or approach. Just because you lost 100% of the argument, doesn't mean I HAVE to have my way 100% of the time. By arguing that progress is made through the legislative body, I am guaranteeing myself NOT to get my way 100% of the time. I have to be patient and I have to work incrementally towards satisfactory resolutions through compromise.
