Im talking about a day with history that goes right back to celebrations in TX right after emancipation there.
I appreciate the US Constitution a lot, and it was quite a revolutionary document in its day. So I'm not chiding those who generally respect it. I'm more concerned that we've moved toward treating it as divinely revealed text.... a testament of demigods. But obviously it was massively flawed from the get go, and we need to take the notion of amendments seriously as they did in its early days.
