There is no need to quote the Constitution, or even read it. Those in Washington don't refer to it anymore.

...or many FReepers, for that matter. It's all about power. "We" have it, so there.

Yes, just one freeper has quoted the Constitution on this thread.


Apparently, those who think, by taking away from the congress the power "to define and punish Piracies and Felonies committed on the high Seas, and Offences against the Law of Nations; To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water; " and giving it to the Judiciary, they can find a better balance between liberty and security than our founders did, will not be swayed by the constitution.
