WHAT WAS INTENDED
MISREADINGS
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
After several read-throughs of this sorely outdated and willfully inflexible document, we are saddened to say that we were unable to determine the location of these phrases:
"By Blessings of Liberty we mean unlimited Executive powers including the extralegal ability to monitor and collect information obtained through warrantless surveillance of American citizens. Also, by Welfare we certainly do not mean any kind of government-funded social program."
