Re: "If you didn't claim that...."

Correct.

I didn't. (I don't know enough about constitutional law, have not considered the matter enough in detail, to have *formed* a personal opinion yet about exactly what those few words 'mean'. Color me: 'still open to argument'.)

Re: "And the Senate's language indicates an individual right."

If YOU say so....

(But I'd venture to say that --- since the Senate apparently resisted accepting language from the House that *unambiguously* laid out a personal right, fought against it for MONTHS and finally prevailed in the tussle --- *if* the Senate's preferred language does establish a personal right to some degree, it seems most definitely to establish such a right to a lesser degree then the House's more direct language would have. <GGG>)
