I view it as a breach of fiduciary duty. We, the people, have given up certain rights/powers for the greater good, with the clear understanding of how those rights/powers are to be exercised (i.e., consistent with the Constitution). Those that intentionally act to circumvent the Constitution are usurping rights/powers that do not belong to them.

I see your point, but will have to think about it some more to know if I agree. The main sticking point for me is that I didn't give up those rights. I was just born here and had no say in determining which rights to give up.
If what you are saying just applies to politicians who take an oath to uphold the Constitution when they are sworn in, well, that makes more sense to me.

I never thought othewise. Is this some way of telling me you think I talk too much? If so, get in line behind all my grade school teachers. I'll listen to you as much as I listened to them.
