Yes, this may ride on U.S. Term Limits, Inc. v. Thornton

The law that a person must show his or her tax returns to be on the ballot may be Constitutional, but not for someone who is already in office.

This is why I am against capital punishment.

Bad enough spending most of your life in prison.

I am waiting for Trump's tweets on this.

He is not going to be happy which suits me just fine.

How can we have diplomacy when both leaders never tells the truth?

They lie to each other and then lie to their people.

Doesn't she know which hand she shoots her service revolver with?

Also, aren't the service revolver and stun gun totally different shapes and weights?

I was born in 1943.

Until after the war, we lived in a 2 bedroom 1 bathroom apartment. There were my maternal grandmother, mother, father, sister, myself, 2 maternal aunts and 2 maternal uncles when they were home on leave. Later, my grandmother died and the rest of us minus our uncles moved into a 3 bedroom 1 bathroom apartment. In 1955, my parents bought a house for mother, father, sister and me. we moved into a 3 bedroom 1 1/2 bathroom house. The rest of our family wondered why we needed 1 1/2 bathrooms when there were only 4 of us.

I am 100% service-connected disabled.

I have a disabled veterans plate. The way I walk into a store, people don't see that I am disabled. After half an hour of grocery shopping, then they can see by the way I am walking that I am disabled. I always carry my VA healthcare ID which states I am service connected and DoD ID which states I am DAVPRM/E5 just in case.
