I hate the "living Constitution" approach. It's just like Christians deciding what they want to believe out of the Bible. "I think homosexuality is wrong, but so is stoning disobedient children." As Ron Paul wrote, once the Constitution becomes a living document, it might as well be nothing more than a blank sheet of paper.

As for the whole FISA thing, I have absolutely no problem with the government gathering information about suspects and tracking them... as long as they obtain a warrant for it. FISA is clearly a violation of our 4th amendment rights.

As far as saying that they don't know the Constitution, you're probably right. I'm sure they do. It's just that they're pandering to idiots who DON'T know the Constitution. Throw that in with their inability to accept responsibility for themselves, and we have a big, totalitarian government.


whoa.
