Pocket US Constitution becomes best-seller after speech

A pocket version of the U.S. Constitution has become a best-seller on Amazon.com. […]

The Constitution emerged as a best-seller days after Muslim-American lawyer Khizr Khan, whose son was killed while serving in Iraq, flashed a pocket Constitution and offered to lend it to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump during a speech at the Democratic National Convention.

The version Khan used at the convention did not appear to be the same as the one that became popular on Amazon. …

Heh, Eric Bolling on “The Five”(back when I used to watch this stupid show)used to wave his pocket Constitution when trying to make one of his stuttering, incoherent points. It would piss-off Dana PeRino, Bob whats-his-name, and Greg Gutfeld off no end.

Bet a cup of coffee they will be just fine with this goatherd waving it in front of America and Trump.

The Constitution emerged as a best-seller days after Muslim-American lawyer Khizr Khan...flashed a pocket Constitution and offered to lend it to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.

Suddenly people are curious about the US Constitution because a MUZZIE waves it around like some magic wand? AGITPROP. Still, you can't make his s*** up.

This Muzzie doesn't give a blood rip about the US Constitution. So this Muzzie lawyer -- whose religion and orthodoxy commands its Death Cultists to murder and convert by the sword -- dares to hijack the moral high ground from Trump and the REST of America?? Insane.

Why didn't Khan merely flash his Koran up on stage?

Cute move. This Muslim USED our own Constitutional loopholes and Political Correctness to set up their mass murder and caliphate.

If it’s the actual US Constitution, then you have the whole Bill of Rights, the republican form of government (versus ecclesiastical) . . . or rather, it is Sharia law that is in conflict with the Constitution.

I am picturing the liberals thumbing through the document searching for the rights to abortion and unisex locker rooms.

####ing sick to my stomach.

Apologizing for videos when we should have said “#### you, this is america, you can make whatever film you like” even though the film was a front

Naming warships after child molesting faggots

Giving known terrorst countries 150 billion in money

Trading 5 KILLERS for a traitor piece of #### deserter

Spreading the MB filth across the world

Shoving ####tty healthcare down our throats

Tearing down confederate statues and flags and trying to move BODIES from graves!!!!

WTF are we doing??

What are we waiting for?

We give elections one more chance.

THEN WE BRING HELL DOWN. ON EVERYBODY THAT’S CROSSED US.

Oh, oh. This one backfired on the commie ‘RATS and their convention producers and directors. What if the democrats buying all of those “pocket” Constitutions ACTUALLY READ THEM?! I doubt the Muzzie guy did. Someone probably gave it to him as a prop just before he went out on stage. I’ve got a bunch of those things. I don’t carry one of them around with me at any time. That’s just some dumb sh*t.

There aren’t loopholes (see the Ninth and Tenth Amendments particularly); there are the deliberate misinterpretations by corrupt activist judges who legislate from the bench and the flouting by a corrupt executive enabled by an equally-corrupt compliant rubber-stamp legislature, all of whom have usurped power they are not granted by that Constitution.

I still have pocket Constitutions in my glove compartment, purse, and in my kitchen. My daughters always had copies in their school backpacks. The Heritage Foundation distributed them free several years ago to anyone who wanted them. I have loved having them.

I just checked this out on Amazon. Here is how I see this. The cheapest $1.00 version of the pocket Constitution is a “Best Seller” (hover over) IN CONSTITUTIONS. All they show are U.S. Constitutions and the $1.00 version is the best selling edition. This farticle is baloney.

Try getting a Kindle e-copy of `Clinton Cash’ or `The Camp of the Saints’ on Amazon: “Unavailable”.

An irony here is “indignant” `rats waving a bloody shirt and the US Constitution ... like angry vampires wearing asbestos gloves holding up crucifixes.

They failed to report that sales of thick black Sharpie markers also sky rocketed so that these pocket constitutions could be quickly edited so that pesky parts of it dont trigger any of these lefties.

51. As soon as peace is restored, we will banish from the kingdom all foreign born knights, crossbowmen, serjeants, and mercenary soldiers who have come with horses and arms to the kingdom’s hurt.

Has Khan shown us the word “abortion” in that little book?

How about “political correctness”?

“Gay marriage”?

Where are those, Mister KhanMan?

The version Khan used at the convention did not appear to be the same as the one that became popular on Amazon. .....I believe it is the same one Hillsdale College give out for free.
