Given the fact that most law professors in most schools see the constitution as a minor impediment, it is amazing that there all so many lawyers and judges who actually respect the Constitution and seek to enforce it. My experience may be typical.

I was taught that it was "good" when the Court looked at the "penumbras" of the Constitution, and "extended" its guarantees. I did not begin to learn that this was a pernicious doctrine which threatened the very existence of the Constitution, until I was out of law school in in practice.

I thoroughly agree that law professors who would sign such a letter are incompetent to to talk about, much less teach about, the Constitution of the United States.
