The author needs to check his facts before saying that amendments have all been made to ensure liberty. The 16th Amendment sure doesn't ensure liberty, instead it restricts it. That is just one example. (Income Taxes)

He'd have a hard time making the case that the ammendments to add and then repeal prohibition on alcohol both ensured liberty.

I'm sick of hearing the silly notion that the Supreme Court is more infalible than the Pope. I know that the SC doesn't make Constitutional ammendments but they are appointed to interpret the Constitution.
