Your literalistic reading of the Consititution in this instance leaves me cold.

I see it leaves pretty much everyone cold at one time or another.

Yeah. That "everyone" pretty much includes people who have both a heart and a brain.

Folks that can both see the bigger picture and still care enough about their fellow human beings to realize that we don't have to have written permission from the Founders to do the right thing, or the smart thing.
