I would love for the Founding Fathers to come back and stop this.

"For students stumped by �ex post facto� and put off by �thereofs� and �hereins,� a congressional staffer has translated the Constitution into modern, plain language."

At first I thought that this may be a good thing. Because it would get more kids interested in American historical documents.

But then I remembered who teaches the kids. And those crappy textbooks they use. And the way the Bill of Rights can be mis-interpreted. Like how the comma in the 2nd Amendment is used by some to say that the word 'Militia" describes a governmental entity and not one comprised of private citizens.

The burning of the flag. OK with me. It is the ultimate expression of your freedom of speech. And everytime the lefties do it they prove their claims of a 'Police State" to be wrong.

But the blatant re-writing of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights based on someones interpretation. Someone who is not a Supreme Court Justice. Even if I agree with their interpretation. And then pushing it on the young as a way to 'popularize' the document. It should be punishable by hanging.

Make the kids smarter and stretch out their attention spans. These are future Presidents, Senators, Representatives, Supreme Court Justices' and, more importantly, voters were talking about here. I don't want no "funkin' around" with those words.
