OK, congratulations, Congress just undermined the separation of powers as the checks and balances inherent in our form of government. A Congress that *would* do that is one not worth preserving. I'll stipulate that Congress *can* do a lot of things that it *should* not do, and that would be fucking stupid to do - much like entertaining any of your insipid posts.
The Constitution isn't a suicide pact. The guys who wrote it had sense enough to shit can the first one because it was dumb. Now if they had sense enough to toss the first one why aren't we smart enough to toss the current one if it will kill us to keep following it in the modern world? This isn't 1789.
