Assuming you're referring to me, this is part of the problem. Too many judges, including some on the Supreme Court, have overstepped their bounds and "interpreted" the Constitution miles away from the original meaning. To the point where "case precedent," and not the Constitution, is the real law of the land. Heck, look no further than the fourth amendment being used as a basis for legalizing abortion. rolleyes
