I was listening to the Schnidt show, this afternoon. The guest host was discussing the planned reading of the Constitution and a caller claimed it was just a gimmick. The host axed him if he had ever read the constitution. His reply was "of course not."

Not "never got 'round to it."
Not "sorry, I haven't."
Not even, "nah, didn't feel like it."

No, it was "of course not." As it reading the constitution was some sort of strange, extremist activity that well-adjusted people ought not engage in.

Boy, I longed for the days where the Left just wanted to "evolve" the Constitution, rather than pretend it doesn't exist.

(sorry to nitpick, but it's "asked" ^_^)

"What are you doing with that flashlight under your sheets, son?"
"I'm reading the Constitution, dad."
"What, the Constitution? Where did you get that trash? Give it here. Who gave it to you? When I find out I'm gonna wring his neck!"
"I promise I won't do it again! Please, dad!"
"And next time I come up here at oh-dark-thirty and catch you with a flashlight under your sheets, it had better be Playboy!"

The only possible good "no" is "No, I haven't read it since high school"
