"But you would have to be an idiot to believe that," Justice Scalia said. "The Constitution is not a living organism; it is a legal document. It says something and doesn't say other things."

Far be it from me to offer my agreement with Justice Scalia, he doesn't need my approval. But, of course he is totally correct. It's the Constitution not a Honey-do list that my wifes sticks to fridge, and changes daily, where she lets me know it's time to paint the dining room green or throw out the trash.

Back in Cromwell's day. they wrote a constitution. It was called the "Instrument of Government." The federal constitution is a legal instrument, a document to establish and define the powers of government. It is flexible, but it is not "alive,"

The big surprise for me was that in an AOL poll today (AOL not known for being anywhere near conservative)70percent agreed with Scalia! Maybe the libs just are not up this early to skew this poll yet.
