The really old Constitution had a pretty good month

Who can forget this snippet of wisdom from 2010?

I’d say June 2014 was a pretty good month for that old document.

Last week the Supremes shot down Obama’s “recess” appointments because under that old document, they were not really recess appointments.

And also free speech buffer zones, because even people protesting to protect the unborn are entitled to speak their minds.

And hey, government, leave our cellphones alone.

Today, in Hobby Lobby, the principles of religious freedom in the First Amendment, as codified additionally in legislation, were upheld.

And also today, the Supremes upheld freedom of speech principles in holding that home care workers could not be forced to subsidize public sector union political activities.

For an old lady, the Constitution is holding up just fine.
