If ever there was a cry for absolutely limiting government authority, this is it. The guys who wrote the Constitution were thinking the same way as Mencken; too bad that those who came after did not share these views. After FDR, things began to go downhill for liberty at an ever-increasing speed. Today, the last thing the legislators consider before crafting assinine legislation is the Constitution. They think about as little of the document as if they were stepping on a bug.
