“Let's Give Up on the Constitution”


I have long contended that Liberals and Leftists detest our Constitution and see it as an obstacle to their designs.  They rarely come right out and admit it, of course.

But now that they are feeling their oats after the re-election of The One, do not be surprised if more of them do come out and admit that they believe the Constitution should be ignored and worse. 

In fact, that may already be beginning.  In the words of (MULTIPLE irony alerts) Louis Michael Seidman, a professor of constitutional law at Georgetown University, “…before abandoning our heritage of self-government, we ought to try extricating ourselves from constitutional bondage so that we can give real freedom a chance.”

Because nothing increases freedom like abolishing the rule of law.  The rule of “The People” is SO much better.

Happy New Year?

MORE: I have to repeat this brilliant tweet:

Constitutional law profs are becoming to the Constitution what ethicists long ago became to ethics.

So, we should become the sort of lawless, irrational place from which most immigrants come? Good luck with that!
