"-I think a strict construction would be probably the way I describe it."- Rudy
He thinks 'strict constructionist' would be "PROBABLY" the way he describes it!?
Sorry,but that's neither explicit nor confidence inspiring.
His definition of the concept WAS explicit. Then he went on to NAME the concept. The way I heard it then, the way I now read it now, he was simply trying not to sound pedantic when invoking the legal jargon.
