Pissed off by the lies, misrepresentations, and outright horseshit, I decided it was time to strike back. It was time to reclaim the Constitution. Besides, if the Righties were wrong about everything else--like health care, climate change, and the corporate tax rate--they had to be wrong about the Constitution. First, I did my homework. I read the Constitution and the amendments; perused The FederalistV and Madison's notes taken during the Constitutional Convention; surveyed the lives of the Founders and FramersVI; looked over the Supreme Court opinions of Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas; and even tried to digest Glenn Beck's The Original Argument, Mark Levin's The Liberty Amendments, and Dr. Ben Carson's A More Perfect Union--three of the best over-the-counter sleep aids on the market. To find out how the mind of a strict constructionist works, I also dipped into Ted Cruz's autobiography, A Time for Truth, a faith-based romance novel in which the hero falls in love with himself at an early age.
