Specter said the late Supreme Court Justice Benjamin Cardozo said, "The constitution is an evolving document based upon the values of the people." "That's the kind of strict constructionist that I'm looking for" in a judge, Specter said, pointing out that such a judge would not be labeled a moderate or conservative.

Huh? That's not a strict constructionist. Specter has to go.

Then it is not worth a S#$t.

Spectre's idea is the Constitution means one thing today and another tomorrow.

The founding Fathers meant for it to mean the same today, tomorrow, and a 1000 years from now.
