that's because dems don't pick and choose the parts of the constitution they like.
the rightwingnuts never met an individual liberty they didn't try to abridge....
except for gun ownership, of course.
They don't?
Funny, most Democrats are in favor of either banning the 2nd Amendment (Which is part of the Bill of Rights.) or Taxing the shit out of it, till it's pretty impossible to buy ammo or guns.
Back on congressional exmeptions.
I think they did have to start paying social security.
Unless I am mistake they were exempt for a long time.
Yea ..they have only been paying for 25 years
We really need this amendmet
The next thing you know some Con will reintroduce slavery, Oh wait!
HR 5741.............
The 28th Amendment should outlaw the Democratic Party. It's only been fucking over the US Constitution since Day One.

i think that's a pretty far stretch. I know I think unless the 2nd were repealed, it has to be respected like any other amendment. what i believe, though, is that it was misconstrued by the Court and that scalia intentionally drafted an overbroad and overreaching decision. but nonetheless... it's what the decision is.
Hey we got Gunny out of his foxhole.

Snopes says BS....Congress is currently not exempt from the laws they pass
You are correct.that's because dems don't pick and choose the parts of the constitution they like.
The Dems just throw the whole thing out, no picking and choosing for them.
Hey Dumbass! Only 10 amendments were part of the ORIGINAL constitution! In your retard mind you trying to say that wingnutz don't approve of the 13th amendment, equal protection clause, 2 terms, no poll tax, sufferage for woman and Blacks etc.
Go fuck yourself!
The ORIGINAL Constitution had no Amendments, by definition.
Try again.
Isn't the First Amendment also the first section of the Bill of Rights? When did the Constitution become law of the land? When was the Constitution signed by all parties. Did it need 8 and not 13 states to become law of the land?
stop playing gotcha games and add something to the debate.

Above Their Own Laws - TIME
Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution
"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States ."
Debating the "original intent" of the framer of the Consitution is an excerise in futility.
Demanding that "literal interpretation" be imposed on us, likewise indicates that the people demanding such a thing lack the intellectual horsepower to understand just how impossible such a thing really is.
The Consitution itself is vaguely written in large part.
The framers didn't want it to TIE the hands of future governments, that's exactly why they put mechanisms and remedies in place to modify it as needed.
They knew, what apparently some of us don't.
LIFE belongs to the LIVING.
Wingnuts show their love for the Constitution as it was originally written by constantly offering amendments to it.
Right Sangha. Republicans are the only people that have ever ammended the constitution (not that they could if they wanted to......minor oversight in your quick attempt to get a jab in).
I don't see any dems claiming to be Originalists or Strict Constructionists, or claiming that the Constitution has been "corrupted"
