BlueTrain, you offer a false dichotomy. Something you heard does not have to be false (though it could have been). You could have heard or remembered incorrectly; you could have remembered incompletely; you could have added your own assumptions on top of what you heard.
Anybody could have done the same. This is one reason why few things are black and white.
I am concerned, though, that you still cannot come up with any expansions of federal power that you do not like. This does make it hard to accept some of your other arguments, as it implies a kool-aid level of big government fandom, and loss of perspective.
Hopefully you can come up with some reasonable concerns about federal power grabs, if only to prove you know how to look at things from other perspectives.
