Constitutional Bullshit

I have no idea what kind of a name Satyam is so I don't know if a dude or a chick WROTE THIS, but it's a pretty potent joint re: the hypocrisy of Sniffy Wiffy et al being all of a sudden married to the Constitution (after, as he/she points out, they sat silently while Dubyanuts rubbed his balls all over it):
Everyone has his or her view of what the Constitution really means. But the right-wing tendency to harp on the “original” Constitution and Bill of Rights (albeit selectively) and omit from their dogma the most pivotal amendments in our history is just willful ignorance. If you’re going to make “constitutionalism” a plank of your political movement, then you need adhere to the principles of the whole document, which, in part at least, is a remarkably progressive work.
Isn't this how they also read the Bible, the only thing these people have ever read?
