"Libertarians substitute their own moral philosophy for the Constitution."

How do they do that, sneak in and switch docs?

"Libertarianism says that all laws against "consensual" crimes are unconstitutional, but the constitution doesn't say that at all.

That's irrational and false. The Constitution says what it does and is not a libertarian document.

Hey, it's a "living document."

A Constitutionalist would agree with the Founders that powers to legislate against vice are reserved to the states. Libertarians disagree.
