"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?

You'd have to add in "And no cheating by getting your staff to help you!"

I think the Republicans would end up with a greater "majority" in Congress, but quorum might be hard to meet. I do have a pocket Constitution, but I don't carry it anymore. I have a link to it on my browser if I need the verbatim text.
