Liberal journalist deems Constitution too damn hard to read – it’s “not a clear document”

Come now Ezra Klein, economic and domestic columnist and blogger for the Post and master of … well … nothing. Your argument is that the Constitution is too hard to understand so we should just ignore it? When people actually start reading this founding document and figure out it is being blatantly ignored by leadership, Klein does what any good socialist blogger would do – inform his readers the document is irrelevant and not worthy of our time.

Klein argues the founders could not comprehend what the United States would look like or need hundreds of years from now, so the document itself is now pretty much worthless.

"My friends on the right don’t like to hear this, but the Constitution is not a clear document. Written more than 200 years ago, when America had 13 states and very different problems, it rarely speaks directly to the questions we ask it."

Oh yes it does Mr. Klein.

There are two commentaries on the Constitution, The Federalist Papers and The Anti-Federalist Papers. Anything you don’t understand about the Constitution and the Bill of Rights can be answered there.

Too bad these idiots are only semi-literate.

"The Constitution and Bill of Rights were written so that less learned people of the time could understand them."

I would go as far to say that the less learned people of that time were ten times smarter than any libtard nowadays...

As stated in a great line from the movie Zoolander, “I feel like I’m taking crazy pills!”

Is this guy kidding? The constitution is the most straight-forward, simple legal document ever written.

Especially when you compare it to the laws that get passed these days. So can we ignore (or interpret as we wish) all those terrible laws as well, since they’re too hard read and understand? I say we start with Obamacare.

Won’t hold water.

Yesterday in the waiting room of a doctor’s office, a woman was giving her little kid some sort of blue drink. Yuk; but Michelle feeds her kids shaved ice that’s probably just food coloring, sugar, shaved ice, and water. Pot meet kettle.

He probably feels the same way about the Bible.

Let’s ignore the constitution, drag Ezra out from behind his desk and into the street and....

I bet the commie Ezra would be screaming for his constitutional rights.

Written more than 200 years ago, when America had 13 states and very different problems, it rarely speaks directly to the questions we ask it."

Perhaps Mr Klien is too fu*king STUPID to understand the constitution.

[Riley]

And I’ll bet you a nickel that he wants Constitutional rights for enemy combatants.

[dearolddad]

The Constitution speaks very well to the questions, Ezra. You just don’t like the answers!

Maybe Ezra isn't intelligent enough to understand the answers.

It’ll be interesting when the Obamination leaves office and their dietitian reveals all.

Question #2, can we toss out the parts we don't like by judicial decree instead of changes by approved majority of the legisture and states?

Question #3, Can we just get our little trolls in the regulatory agencies to destroy the Constitution via regulatory degrees?

Question #4. Can a Marxist president do it via Executive Order?

[zeugma]

WTF????? The U.S. Constitution is one of the clearest and most concise documents you'll ever read. The only reason an article like this can even be written, is because far too many people have never sat down and actually read the Constitution, much less studied it.

[clearcarbon]

What part of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights don’t these people understand or comprehend? The language is beautiful and the ideas very clear.

That's the problem. It's written in English, not liberish.

[ReverendJames]

Too true. The same Liberal idiots who laugh when we ask if separation of church and state is in the first amendment.
