The Bill of Rights is greatly diminished without the Preamble:
The Preamble to The Bill of Rights Congress of the United States
begun and held at the City of New-York, on
Wednesday the fourth of March, one thousand seven hundred and eighty nine.
THE Conventions of a number of the States, having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will best ensure the beneficent ends of its institution.
Thus at least in principle, the BOR may in fact restrict the entire Constitutional list of enumerated powers; the commerce or supremacy clauses for example.
We all know how that turned out. So much for principle.

Happy 218th Birthday Bill of Rights, unfortunately the courts and the statists/marxists have cut you out of the Constitution.

"Happy Birthday..." ???
Hmmm...What planet is the author on?
It's the birthday...but, more correctly, a "morbid" birthday. "Mortality" is now the only remaining issue....

When our own representives, who claim to believe in the bill of rights either do not have the guts to stand up for them or do not have the mental power to understand them
lets them get trampled on, what can we do? get them out and get more of thier kind in?
It has been the same way ever since i have had an interest in politics, the liberals will get up a bill with a whole bunch of garbage even they themselves don,t want, so the republicans will fight to get the garbage out and if they get it out they are proud of themselves and the liberals get what they want.
Why don,t the conservetives turn the table on them? or are there any conservetives left? maybe a few republicans and very few democrats.
