Friday 17 September 2010 is the USA Constitution's 223rd anniversary. That's not a very round number, like a bicentennial, yet this year everybody seems to know the importance of the date. There are even Constitution Parties. In prior years, it was the odd individual who even remembered. As retired military, it gladdens me to see so much interest in the U.S. Constitution. It's the document I swore an oath to uphold & defend, so solemnly that it ended with the words from George Washington's own oath of office precedent: "So Help Me, God".
