The Constitution is a guidline to government that has been skirted in every possible way by both democrats and republicans. The trajedy is that the people do not realize how important the Constitution is to our children.

I presume most people are similar to myself and have no idea how to oppose both parties at the same time when they violate the Constitution, ie. Patroit Act.

I don't think I have ever heard that mentioned before. It is a feeling of utter hopelessness.

Vote Libertarian! We are the ones that actually learned how to read despite the public school system and want the constitution enforced all the way. You might also stop calling us all "druggies" when we point out that the limited power of the federal government does not extend to the prohibition of drugs and therefore the War on Drugs is a violation of the constitution.

"But when a student asked him whether a national ID would violate the Constitution's Fourth Amendment, which protects individuals 'in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures,' Scalia pointed out that the Amendment says nothing about an ID card."

The Constitution says nothing about abortion either.

If the SCOTUS is going to assert that a "right to privacy" is sufficient to give women the right to kill their children, than I think it hardly a stretch to conclude that a "right to privacy" would preclude the "papers, please" scenario that a "national ID card" would be intended to facillitate.

I see no hypocrisy in Scalia's statement.

I vote for massive non participation. If we just ignore the imbeciles, they'll have to go away.
