There's nothing about Congress only being able to regulate "legitimate" trade in the Commerce Clause. You leftists do love to treat the Constitution as a "living document" full of emanations from penumbras of your own invention.
Too bad you weren't there at the Constitutional Convention to tell the Framers that criminals enjoyed an immunity from Congressional authority when contraband goods were involved. I'm sure they would have been fascinated.

Before you can start to lecture on the Constitution you need to study English a little more. Your semantic parsing goes far beyond the hubris of the Clintons when you try to fit an activity that is outlawed in its entirety into definitions of "regulation of commerce."
When it comes to idiots no one is going to take a back seat to you.
Not since robertpaulsen left us anyway.
