Replying to a message of Ross Sauer to All:

 RS> And the Palin phanbois wonder why Sarah Palin is called a
 RS> ditz?

 RS> Sarah Palin was on the O'Reilly Factor last night talking
 RS> about the National Day of Prayer, but she went a bit
 RS> further than her usual party line of calling America a
 RS> Christian nation. "I think we should keep this clean, keep
 RS> it simple, go back to what our founders and our founding
 RS> documents meant," she said. "They're quite clear that we
 RS> would create law based on the God of the Bible and the 10
 RS> commandments, it's pretty simple."

I just finished reading "Miracle at Philadelphia," a record of how
the Constitution was written and by whom; day by day.  In short,
she's full of sh*t.

Little known factoid - Rhode Island boycotted the convention.  
Another little known factoid - several of the delegates quit in
protest over the way things were going and went home, including
most of the New York delegation.
A third factoid - the delegates were *NOT* unanimous in voting out
the finished product and several of them refused to sign it.
Note also that Pennsylvania's ratification of the document was done
illegally, they couldn't get a quorum of delegates because the
anti-Constitution delegates had departed (they wanted to wait until
after the impending election before voting on the ratification); two of
the anti-Constituionalists were quite literally kidnapped, dragged into
the chamber (giving the required quorum) and forced into their seats.
