Andrew Bates, a White House spokesperson, said: “Attacking the constitution and all it stands for is anathema to the soul of our nation and should be universally condemned.” (Guardian)

It is refreshing to see the “living document” left finally embrace and defend that racist, misogynistic tool of patriarchal oppression known as the US Constitution. Too bad the goad to their hindquarters was a Republican President blathering nonsense, but I guess its true, you really can’t have it all…

Mr. Bates also uttered this solid gold nugget of wisdom I wish team sport partisans on all sides would be forced to swear to, upon pain of death:

 “You cannot only love America when you win.”

What say you?
