Jackson didn't really say F the Supreme Court. It's a paraphrase of his reaction to a US Supreme Court ruling that said Native Americans do have rights.

"in the 1832 U.S. Supreme Court decision (Worcester v. Georgia) which ruled that Georgia could not impose its laws upon Cherokee tribal lands. Jackson is often quoted (regarding the decision) as having said, "John Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it!"

"In any case, Jackson used the Georgia crisis to pressure Cherokee leaders to sign a removal treaty. The treaty was enforced by Jackson's successor, Van Buren, who ordered 7,000 armed troops to remove the Cherokees.[35] This resulted in the deaths of over 4,000 Cherokees"

In essence he said "F**k the Supreme Court.

you seem to be under the impression that people read your sig? :p

and that I will understand what your talking about:confused:

Yes, I agree that Jackson was an A-hole of a president.

No, I do not care about your sig.

No, I do not care about your sig.

I care for different reasons maybe the subtle drug reference (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cheif)

Is this based on something thinking that you literally meant that?

Either way, it is widely agreed that Jackson disobeyed the court and even talked openly about doing it.

Wow, it's like a blog post that people extra don't care about!

I don't have a "sig" but was considering Denise Richards recent pronouncement, for its "THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!!" value....

OH! Look at mine! It has a quote from the movie Predator.:fluffle:

I find it rather interesting that you find it worth while to censor "god damned" but apparently feel "faggot" is perfectly fine.

What would that have been?

:mad: Dang you. Now I have to go censor that too.

Ooh, ooh, ooh, look at mine...

Grave_n_Idle:Maybe that's why the bible is so anti-other-gods, the other gods do exist, but they diss on Jehovah all the time for his shitty work.
KoL: If I want to fuck everything with an ass, thats what I choose to do. If you don't like it, sod off.
Fass Well, duh. Since people want to fuck us, of course we get to fuck more.

Sigs are something that make only sense to you. Wether the rest of the world gets it or not, it really doesn´t matter. No need for explanations. No one cares.

Honestly, I barely even remember why I have my sig. I think I'm the only one who didn't end up changing it eventually.

It's like a hermitic in-joke.

But you've attributed it as a quote. It isn't. "Essence" doesn't matter if you're going to claim Jackson actually said something.

What about poin-ted sticks?

Sigs? Whaddaya mean, Sigs? Oh yeah.:p

It's like a hermetic in-joke.

You might call it that.
