That's what really pisses me off. If the government storms your house, most of these people would have no problem with it. You don't hear a thing about the 4th Amendment because that just gets in the way.

But if some Taliban terrorist is tried, they scream bloody murder if we don't go by the constitution.

Another thing that pisses me off about liberals and ACLU rights is that they defend civil liberties fully (which I agree with in many cases-just not this one), but you don't hear a peep from them when the government wants to assault economic liberties. For example, when the government wants to regulate something and claims it has the authority under the commerce clause, all you hear is silence from the ACLU crowd. Or what about the constitionality of tax courts where people are presumed guilty? Where are they then?
Or what about the 2nd Amendment? I don't see them there either.

What I would like to see is an organization that defended ALL liberties, social, civil, and economic. And none of this living constitution crap. I mean defend the written, INTENDED constitution.

I think that is called the supreme court (by a slim 5-4 in most cases). Then again, some might disagree....

Oh, if you mean like an advocacy group, we need to find some rich philanthropist who agrees with everything we think to bankroll it. Yeah, like that's gonna happen...

There are groups that focus on certain areas in this regard though. Pacific Legal Foundation comes to mind and I am sure there are others.
