Fred Thompson fires back at Huckabee's comments on the constitution:

"This morning I heard that one of the other candidates commented that the Constitution is a "living, breathing document."

Frankly, I assumed this came from Senator Clinton or Senator Obama. It is identical to what Al Gore said when he was running for President in 2000, when he said he would look for judges "who understand that our Constitution is a living, breathing document, that it was intended by our founders to be interpreted in the light of the constantly evolving experience of the American people."
