The rape of the US Constitution will continue if conservatives try to preach rather than teach.

Thanks for your post! What I find so disconcerting is the group who proclaims to love the constitution so much that they are unwilling to give this woman a fair hearing because they feel that by not being a legal scholar or judge that she is unqualified to sit on the SCOTUS. That is precisely what the drafters of the constitution wanted to avoid.

No, the drafters of the Consitution did not want to avoid the public coming to their own conclusions using information available to them, and instructing their servants based on that information.
