To be honest, I am stunned that even Dims are getting offended at reading the constitution on the House floor. It’s worse than even I thought....
It’s like living in Bizzaro World.
Nancy Pelosi: “Defict reduction is our mantra.”
Yeah. By their reaction, you'd think someone was going to read the Bible aloud, or something. /sarc

Me, too - I was shocked. Particularly nasty were the comments by Jerrold Nadler, NY congressman, made shortly after the announcement. Yes, we’ve got more trouble to deal with than I’d realized, when so many who profess to value the Constitution (even those who just swore - again - to uphold it first and foremost) evidently feel free now to mock it in hateful ways.

I’m stunned that anyone is stunned at their actions re: the Constitution.
Just watch a war protest or, better yet, Jon Stuart’s attempt to take on Glenn Beck with a rally on the mall.
That’s where they really came out of the closet, and that’s when I was stunned...at how open they were with their contempt for this country and what makes it so great.
They are afraid it might educate some watching Cspan.
It seemed Pelosi was trying to do some damage control by praising the constitution yesterday at the House swearing in.
