MICHELLE BACHMANN SAYS GAY-BULLYING NOT A FEDERAL ISSUE
Since when is LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS not a federal issue? Essentially, the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment says NO STATE CAN DENY ANYONE THE LIBERTIES AND PROTECTIONS OF THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTION. As Usual, this teabagger shows us how constitutionally clueless she is. The 14th Amendment imposed the Federal Constitution upon the states in 1868. It imposed the religious test ban in Article 6. It imposed the Bill of Rights upon the states and now teabaggers say freedom is a state issue. Bullying is harassment. Protection from harassment, physical or emotional, is the ethical duty of every state under the Federal Constitution. Laws are to protect all, equally.
