> The Constitution does not “give” you those rights. It recognizes them.

Precisely!

The rights are “endowed to us by our Creator” and are therefore “unalienable”, that is, they cannot be encroached or infringed.

The DemonRATS should be required to swear-in to the Communist Manifesto. It would be one of the few acts of honesty they commit.

Stephen Cohen (D) Tennessee gave a one minute speech this morning to complain about the GOP reading of the constitution. He then called it a slave supporting document that only the courts had corrected.

When you come right down to it freedom is just not that popular a concept. People are eager to trow it away for the smallest trashy trinket.

I wish Liberals would simply state that they oppose the Constitution utterly, and wish to overthrow it. :)

In their oath of office all members of Congress swear to

"...support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same..."

Isn't it about time members at least hear what it is they are bound to support, defend and bear allegiance to?

Seeing as how DemcoRATS are largely responsible for slavery, The KKK, and segregation, Republicans should promise Stephen Cohen they will do everything in their power to prevent DemocRATS from re-instituting slavery, The KKK and segregation.

If the libs are howling, I'm all for it.

If they hate the Constitution, then they are disavowing their oath, as it was swearing to defend and adhere to the Constitution.

Those who hate it should be thrown out of Congress, it is no place for them. Were it not for the Constitution there would be no congress and they would be doing more of what they are really qualified for...cooking french fries at McDonalds.

I am simply FLOORED by the sheer AUDACITY of those rat-ba$tard republicans for wanting to actually READ the CONSTITUTION aloud during a session of congress!

It contains quite possibly the most outrageous words ever spoken on the floor of the United States House of Reprehensibles!

Why, it’s downright REVOLUTIONARY!

"Your freedom is a halo, burning around a list of things the government cannot do. Our reverence for the Constitution is inseparable from our respect for each other."

This is a great quote and a drawing line between real Americans and Liberals. I believe the problem with the liberal utopian vision is that in order to pursue it and believe in it, one must lose all respect, for anything standing in the way.

Now we know who the DOMESTIC enemies of the US Constitution are.
