"The house came out with a formulation. The Senate came up with a formulation. The senate won. That doesn't indicate a rejection of the principle of an individual right."

"What's interesting is that you never even post the house's version when you try to make arguments based on it."

(You are certainly free to look it up if you are interested... but, since it *did not* make it into the constitution, was rejected after a months-long political battle, that language of the House's is not now national law. However it might be interesting to see how it differed from the language that passed, and WHY the Senate rejected it....)
