Senator Franken says that the Constitution he follows is “different” from, well, The ACTUAL Constitution

Consider that Franken has sworn to uphold the Constitution. Not that “swearing” to uphold anything probably means much to him. In fact that is pretty clearly on display here –

“the document he (Scalia) revered looks very different from the one I have sworn to defend.”

Really? It looks different? I don’t think so. You, Mr. Franken may not like what the Constitution says, but the Constitution is pretty clear and relatively easy to read. It’s not tough. You should be able to handle it Senator.

Of course the Constitution was written specifically to stymie people like you and that’s the real issue isn’t? The Constitution is supposed to be a bulwark AGAINST ever expansive government. The type of world you Senator would like to see is outside of the Constitution and you know it. It’s not that the Constitution looks different. It’s that you don’t like the Constitution and its restrictions.

And yet you swore an oath to uphold the Constitution, this Constitution. So what does that say about your word?

We all know what it says. Try to justify your position all you want but you can’t be trusted even in little things if you think (or likely more accurately assert) that you see a different Constitution than Justice Scalia did.

(From The Washington Free Beacon)

Franken acknowledged that nobody can dispute the late Scalia’s love for the Constitution, but he went on to say “the document he revered looks very different from the one I have sworn to defend.”

“It troubles me that at this critical juncture in our nation’s history, at this moment when our country is so fixated on things that divide us from one another, that President Trump would pledge to appoint jurists whose views of our founding document seek to reinforce those divisions rather than bridge them,” Franken added.
