That resolution is too complicated. Why don’t the thought police just propose repealing the First Amendment?

On second thought, their strategy makes sense. It’s tough to repeal an Amendment. But it’s easy to chip away at it until it’s gone.

When you think about, it took a constitutional amendment to ban alcohol, but not to ban pot. The constitution may be as irrelevant today as the left says it is. It certainly hasn’t stood in Obama’s way, which cleared a path for future presidential abuse. The despotic genie only goes back into the bottle following a “reset.”
