The Tenth Amendment

Does anyone remember the 10th Amendment? Some seem to.

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

What is your point?

We should have an automatic language converter for the forums. Or...maybe I don't want to know.

Oben am jungen Rhein
lehnet sich Liechtenstein
An Alpenhöh'n.
Dies liebe Heimatland,
Das teure Vaterland,
hat Gottes weise Hand
für uns erseh'n.

Nippen, wo ist Ihre Kühnheit? Sie sind nichts im Strecken. Ich frage mich, wenn Sie den Moment verstehen? Sie griffen mich sofort wie an ich war ein Liberaler. Ich bin nicht. Sie nahmen eine unechte Proposition im Namen, Heiligsatin-Fleck an, und irrten sich wieder. Sie müssen Ihren Computer jämmerlich in der Kathedrale Ihres Körpers machen.

CLHenry,

Thanks, but I just found the translation of all the above to be jibberish. At least to me.

No offense to anyone. I'm sure there is a message here to someone and it does not include me. Wink

Carry on, folks. Laughing

It's not gibberish, it's idiomatic (I think that's the correct term).
The online translators don't do a very good job with things that are typed as they are spoken. This even happens if you're using a dictionary to translate. It's because of the use of sayings that don't translate literally (such as "kiss my butt" - you don't really want the person to kiss your butt - and there's an equivalent expression in German and it doesn't involve kissing anyone's anywhere).

The right and the left appear to forget the tenth when it suits them. I admit to the libertarian view that government should not be in the business of marriage, except to witness contract, as it does with other contracts; it should not be in the sacrament biz. Mrs Cheney got it partly right, for the states, counties, or municipalities should not be in the marriage biz. It is a private, religious affair. Marriage belongs with the individuals involved, and their religious or social association. Since there is no amendment concerning it, it belongs to the - I prefer to skip to the individual.

The translation program is the brain.
