| | Good for Your Constitution |
 | | We don't just love the design, which still looks fresh and timely after two hundred years, but what it stands for - a country that was, for a little while, the freest in the world, until the nannies and lawyers and the Supreme Court and the civil serpents took a sledge hammer to its foundations. |
 | | The only way to commemorate passage of such an amendment would be to burn the flag, not loudly and angrily, but sadly and quietly, remembering that it once stood for something that no longer exists. |
 | | It should please everyone, from freedom loving Americans who have actually read the constitution to the rabid-right-three-piece-suit congressmen and their voters who think a full set of teeth is "snobby." Best of all, it leaves the last remaining piece of the Bill of Rights intact. |
