Where Can I Get A Pocket Copy Of The Constitution That Sen. Byrd.....
carries around with him? (I know we're not happy with Sen. Byrd now - but I'd still like to get a copy). Are there any websites that post in abbreviated form (like 1 page) the basics of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights? I'm thinking I would like to either hand out or e-mail copies to my Repug friends so they can evaluate for themselves how their constitutional rights are eroding on them because of this * administration in D.C. Any help would be appreciated.

2. My wayward daughter got me a handy little copy, I believe from Amazon.
If not there, she also goes to Borders. Call them if there is one close to you.

I think they would make lovely gifts... for all our Congressional Reps & Senators. Sometimes I think they never heard of the document.

3. They should be available at any of the "Big Box" bookstores
like Borders and Barnes & Noble. I bought a pocket Constitution and Declaration of Independence at Borders once. Didn't find out til later that it was published by the Cato Institute. Oh well.

4. Senator Byrd needs to re-read his.
He seems to have forgotten what it means.

5. You can get one free copy here
http://www.constitutionfacts.com/Bookstore/Free_copy.htm and I think if you do a Google search there are other sites offering free copies.

You might want to give them a Constitution lapel pin also ~

8. It's a short document.
Any copy of the constitution is going to be small.

10. Why would you want one of those?
It hasn't been in effect since 1861.
