A descent to politics

Apparently, conservatives are having a wonderful time yet again making fun of Teddy Kennedy's rants on the Senate floor about Samuel Alito. I've listened (link via Michelle Malkin's site), and as is customary when the good Senator falls off the wagon, it is hilarious.

What is even more interesting to me it the Senator's implicit admission that his politics are unconstitutional; he is arguing that the appointment of constructionists/originalists to the Court will undo most of the "progress" he cherishes, knowing that a good reading of the 10th Amendment does demonstrate that most federal spending violates the Constitution.

So yes, this was a lot of fun because it makes Kennedy look silly. Even more important, however, is what he accidentally admits while doing so.
