Liberal Pundit Says U.S. Constitution “Confusing” because it was Written “100+ Years Ago” – Video
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | December 30, 2010 | Brian

Here is video of liberal Ezra Klein actually saying today that the U.S. Constitution “is confusing because it was written more than a hundred years ago.”

Klein made the remarks in response to news that the new GOP-controlled House of Representatives is going to begin the new session of Congress by (gasp!) reading the United States Constitution out loud!

No, Ezra – the Constitution is not “confusing,” and it was actually written more than 200 years ago! It is just inconvenient to liberals like you because it actually limits the power of the Federal Government, which goes against ever fiber of your being.

These America-hating communists cannot even come up with good lies and excuses any more to nullify our Constitution. What a crock.

Gee, maybe Liberals aren’t really smarter than Conservatives.

More confusing than the average piece of legislation coming out of Congress today?

Sounds more like a Harvard Law graduate.

Well this would help to explain why their Leader in the house demands that laws be passed before they are read...because they have too much difficulty understanding them.

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

The same could be said of Marx’s Das Capital, but liberals have no problem at all understanding that.

Maybe he is right, since the government and courts seem to find it so confusing that they keep trying to rewrite it.......Kelo vs. New London. I can’t find where it says the government can take your stuff if some other guy says he can pay more taxes on it than you.

It really quite simple, even for Leftist pinheads.

It is all about the clearly limiting, proscribed powers of government.

In other words, if it is not in the Constitution, the US government CANNOT do it.

Klein is probably an atheist, since the Bible and Koran were written at least 1,300 years ago.

Klein was born in Irvine, California, where he attended University High School. He attended the University of California, Santa Cruz but later transferred to the University of California, Los Angeles, from which he graduated in 2005 with a B.A. in political science.

Klein was raised Jewish.[3]

Then he would have REAL problems with the Torah.

Klein must still be recovering from his grueling high school English Literature class. They made him read The Scarlet Letter and Huckleberry Finn.

Treasonous trash like Ezra Klein are the reason I see American Liberals as being in need of a trail, followed by drawing and quartering.

That was the traditional punishment for treason, after all.
