There are a few dozen quotes in the book that will continue to ring in my head forever. Calling substantive due process an "Avenging Chupacabra" might be one of my favorite phrases of all time. The book's main purpose is to explain the legal jargon conservatives dress their opinions up in, and to explain the faulty logic in those legal opinions that have recently stripped away the rights of so many. I love it.

Wow!! And he actually discussed things that are happening in the current political climate....I wish so many people would pay more attention to what's happening.

Pulls no punches as it walks through the US Constitution from the perspective of a Black American. Thought provoking and often humorous.
