The Federalist"

Good luck. To the left, the Federalist papers simply don't exist. If leftists were ever to recognize their existence, they'd be forced to realize that most, if not all of their current positions are unconstitutional. No, they prefer the Constitution through the nuanced distortions of judges living centuries after the fact, a preference summarized well by (Moron)Gary Ackerman (D-NY) in a recent joust with Sean Hannity, when Hannity cited a particular passage in The Federalist to support an argument.

Ackerman said, "well, the courts decide the meaning of the constitution...we take an oath to uphold the Constitution, not the Federalist Papers."

Translated: "The Constitution means whatever I want it to mean, you ignorant apes."
