Their pockets are full of fish from both sides of the aisle.

I'm heartened that others remember this often overlooked Amendment. The
big battles are fought over the !st, 2nd, and fourth amendments that
actually define rights. Those rights not enumerated in the Constitution
are long gone. That is the tragedy. We lost them by default. This is
the 'death by a thousand cuts' that puts us in the position of having to
fight like hell to retain those actually named. We get so hung up on the
question "Why shouldn't (this or that) be illegal (legal)?" that we
forget the even more basic question "Why should (this or that) be illegal
(legal)?" It is the small laws, rules and regulations that bind us in
everyday life that we don't give a thought to. Rights and freedoms start
in your own home. If you are not free there, as we are not, then you
have no meaningfull rights or freedoms left.
