Hey, you're locked into the mainstream interpretation, and your mind is not open to the proposition that this may not be the correct interpretation. For so long as you remain so, there's no point in discussing it.
So, you've adopted the liberal leftist notion that the Constition is a "living document" which can be twisted to mean anything a judge wants it to mean. Well, sorry, I'll stick by the words of the men who wrote the Constitution and Bill of Rights, thank you very much, and they most certaintly did not intend for their Constitution to be a blank check given to government to do whatever it feels like. The Constitution limits the powers of government; anyone who does not understand this fact is no friend of the Constitution, or of the American people, or of anyone who has any appreciation for limited, Constitutional government.
"So, you've adopted the liberal leftist notion that the Constition is a "living document" which can be twisted to mean anything a judge wants it to mean."
No, I reject that entirely, but hold that it is the mainstream interpretation you espouse that is the twisted, liberal interpretation.
Imagine explaining to Thomas Jefferson the war we fought with the Nazis, and that we now protect that party within our own borders.
