Welcome to IWETHEY!

New I'd prefer "Dissent is not unConstitutional".
Just that same old "American" thing I have. At least until we annex Canada.

And I think he should take a note from The Register and post his "hate mail of the week".
New Problem with that -
Y'see, there's a substantial minority who believe that 'Government' is a synonym for Evil Usurpers of Bizness Prerogatives: to run everything that's runnable. And runnable for Profit, it goes without saying. And.. let's not go into Whose, just here.

Consequently 'Constitution' is another word, just as easily dismissed as ~ [pick any of countless equivalent Yahoo slogans] the yammerings of the nattering nabobs of negativity: them Ivory Tower Intellek-shals and their Com-Symp fellow-travellers .. etc. Well.. the phrases are much longer than the Word, of course - but they fall so trippingly from the tongue, as you light those torches and put on the hoods.

(And of course too, Non Sequitur's cartoon adequately demonstrated the hatchet job done (a la innovation) on the idea of liberal, as in "liberal education", or "an open mind towards____")

So: mayhaps they had no 'neutral' choice that didn't evoke one of the above re-programmed traditional words: like The Constitution of the US of A and other such subversively tainted documents (?)

When a whole country has successfully fucked with Language to This Degree: you have to keep any slogans free of any need for actual Thought.

HTH?

PS 'Usage' declares that: the Only America is US. The other folks on the landmass -- how many Divisions do they command in the field?
