U is For. . . "Unconstitutional"
Wherein your host begins to show signs of mid-term election fatigue:
When did the word “Unconstitutional” lose its meaning? Was it when the Patriot Act was passed and the ALCU screamed itself hoarse? Was it when news anchors started using the term twice each newscast before their intro music had even cut out? Can we blame it all on Our Leader? I guess it doesn’t matter at this point. The word has been rendered meaningless. I suppose in the annals of meaningless words; the 80’s had “awesome,” the 90’s had “alternative,” and this decade gets “Unconstitutional.” Face it, YOU have no allegiance to the document upon which your country’s system of government is founded. No. YOU only care about toadying up to the politician most likely to line YOUR pocketbook. WELCOME TO AMERICA.
