btw, it is the one thing to be admired about Byrd - that he keeps a pocket Constitution.

I am making no judgement in your case, but I consider that fact about Byrd as more for show than for reference. The Constitution is not that large a document and it is his employee manual(or should be).

I take your point and more or less agree. But imagine we lined up everyone in Congress and said "This is a race. Ready, set, go find your Constitution." How many would even be back the same day?

The Constitution is ... his employee manual...

Very good, Andrew!

I'm stuck at the store doing AP today, but I did manage to call the DC offices (877-762-8762) of Frist, McConnell, and Allard this morning and remind the phone people of the Revolutionary War Battle of Kings Mountain (none of them had ever heard of it!) and the standing order of the day:

No quarter!
