Philologists have attempted to understand the original intent of the Constitution by studying the Federalist Papers and other contemporaneous documents. I can save them the trouble. Just observe Barack Obamas interpretation. The Founding Fathers intended the opposite.

A revival in philology would prevent the left from perverting the language to their own ends.
Especially their complete twisting of the words Liberal and progressive to be the polar opposite of their former meanings.

Philology — the science of putting just enough liquid into a bottle container so that it has a cushion of air for expansion and contraction, without letting the customer feel that he has been shorted.

Obama and his many minions
Seem totally out to lunch-
No knowledge of subtlety
Or philology in the bunch
All their brains seem frozen
On what they choose to see-
When hearing and reading just
What they want a thing to be
The delusional behavior played
Well enough with koolaid crowd-
Now with illegals on their lawn
Their howling is getting loud...
I’ve got no sympathy, none at all for the democrats who are now caught in the vice between their base and the rest of the voters in their districts-they can try to put distance between themselves and the idiot in chief all they want, but the smell is already on them...
