The left uses those warts to denigrate the Freedoms that we were guaranteed under the Constitution. I am waiting for my Grand kiddies to start arguing politics, laying like a snake in the grass, as my old man used to say when he held a slam in bridge.

So our Framers and the State ratifying conventions signed our rights away? Bull.

Rather than a book that magnifies the failings of the people of the Constitutional Convention, how about a book that describes the foibles and persons of the radical leftist judges of the appellate and supreme courts?

I doubt there is a book that in similar, direct fashion, identifies the justices who tossed our freedoms away, for these are the people who should be held in derision, not our Framers.

How about this from a Saint of the Left, Justice Thurgood Marshall, “You guys have been practicing discrimination for years. Now it is out turn.”

Rather than denigrate our Framers, a more timely and helpful book would be a history of the abuse of raw governmental power to regulate every detail of our lives under the court's rewrite of the commerce clause.

A country cannot be any better than its people, and the people were far more protective of their rights in 1787.
