Some background: Washington Post wonder boy/blogger Ezra Klein went on MSNBC last week and said the constitution was hard to understand.
Yes, to answer your question: any idiot can get a job at the Post.
What followed was this bit of explanation from Don Surber, who’s far too intelligent to get labeled a “wonk” on MSNBC.
But the best piece of commentary was this from Iowahawk:
The Constitution is very important. It is very important because the Constitution is an important part of the American government, which is as we all know very important also. It can be juxtaposed with other important books and journalism writings which can be found in various history studies.
According to Wikipedia1, the Constitution was discovered over 100 years ago, but is still going strong today. It was discovered by the "Founding Fathers" such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, Benjamin Franklin, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and so forth. Although we often call them the "Founding Fathers" there were many women who were also important in this process who have been far too overlooked. Although these people are now mostly passed away, we still remember them for their importance.
It is important to remember that there are three main parts to the Constitution. First there is the first part. Then comes the middle part of the Constitution. Finally, there is the last part.
Read the whole thing, but take special note of the blank area under “work experience.”
