If you think aficionados of a living Constitution want to bring you flexibility think again. You think the death penalty is a good idea? Persuade your fellow citizens to adopt it. You want a right to abortion? Persuade your fellow citizens and enact it. That's flexibility.

We are on the precipice of a crisis a Constitutional crisis. The checks and balances which have been at the core of this Republic are about to be evaporated by the nuclear option. The checks and balances that say if you get 51% of the vote you don't get your way 100% of the time. It is amazing it's almost a temper tantrum.

The right to be let alone is the underlying principle of the Constitution's Bill of Rights.
