Again you fail to see. The Constitution was setup in order to provide
guidelines on how teh government must be ran. The Bill of Rights, the
first ten amdendments are inalienable rights that Government can not
take away. Thus no government shall pass Statutes and Regulations that
remove the right spelled out in the Bill of Rights.

Dubya Bush did so with an executive order.
