“I’m not a constitutional lawyer and that’s the response from some of the experts with whom I’ve spoken – I didn’t speak to but have gotten some input from. I’m not in a position to raise the (constitutionality) question right now.”

Unbelievable. RTFC!

Unbelievable.

The Constitution was intended to be easily understandable to the average citizen. Its intent is clear and unambiguous, yet because of the past number of decades of "interpretation" by leftist judges and "scholars" most people now believe that its meaning can only be divined by a "constitutional expert." This is a complete perversion of the Founders' intent.

Of course, the real reason that leftists are so intent on convincing people that the Constitution must be interpreted is that the plain meaning of the words it contains is poison to their anti-American agenda. The Constitution was intended to serve as "chains" to bind the federal government to our founding principles, as described by Thomas Jefferson. It was designed to thwart the plans of would-be tyrants, and to be very difficult to change. But the leftists would have us believe that it is really a "living document" that can be reinterpreted according to the whims of the time. These people are nothing less than enemies of America. They must be stopped at all costs. Were Jefferson, Madison, Adams, et al here with us today, I am certain they would be far less tolerant of this despicable behavior than we have been.
