Here's my point. With the ability to contort and interpret the "general welfare" and "interstate commerce" clauses in any manner they wish, the whole "Constitutional justification" bit is toothless.
Toothless. This is just show and political expedience. No, I didn't expect real change after the 2010 elections. Many people did, and they believe they now have it.
"WHERE WAS THE DAMNED CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY FOR THE PATRIOT ACT, YOU WORTHLESS TRAITORS?"
The PATRIOT Act's No. 1 sponsor, Eric Cantor, is now lead dog in the House. He got 48% of the vote in his district in November. The Democrat (who didn't want to be known as a Democrat) got 42%. The libertarian/constitution candidate got the remaining 7%. We can no longer criticize the Weimar Republic for political blindness.
I received some static over this one.

One question. How do you get out of this chicken-shit outfit?
