Now Whatever You Think Of

Liberalism's Fatal Flaw,... Is That It Has No Permanent Norms, Only A Succession Of Enthusiasms Espoused By Minor Prophets. Each Of These Seems Like A Hot New Idea To Liberals, But Soon Goes To Irksome And Destructive Extremes.

The Second Amendment, Like The Rest Of The Bill Of Rights, Was Meant To Inhibit Only The Federal Government, Not The States. The Framers, As The Federalist Papers Attest (see No. 28), Saw The State Militias As Forces That Might Be Summoned Into Action Against The Federal Government Itself, If It Became Tyrannical.

Anything Called A "program" Is Unconstitutional.

Altering The Constitution Has Become The Daily Business Of The Federal Government Which The Document Is Supposed To Guide And Limit. Both Congress And The Judiciary Assume, And Exercise, Countless Powers They Aren't Entitled To.

Like Psychoanalysis, Constitutional Jurisprudence Has Become A Game Without Rules. By Defying The Plain Meaning Of Words, Ignoring Context And History, And Using A Little Ingenuity, You Can Make The Constitution Mean Anything You Like.
