To the committed left, the Constitution is a cheap whore.

To them....it was written by a bunch of old, dead, white guys. It’s irrelevant.
I agree with this partly. But note the Left is not shy of appealing to the Constitution when it suits them. Of coarse they would never appeal to what the old dead white guys actually wrote, but what the Left winger feels like it ought to mean at the moment. To them this feeling is something sacred, essentialy their own twisted notion of Natural Law--though they are too ignorant to even realize it as such. Rather they envision a "living constitution" as some kind of absolute ethic that the rest of us must respect and follow while they in turn dictate the specifics.
They are the animals on the farm that are more equal then the rest of us.
