Or he is a total moron, and self-deluded to boot, as he says the things while projecting his stupidity on others.

So while bashing Beck, Olbermann completely ignores the word migration... Talk about the dumbest man on the planet.

God, please tell me YOU are not that dumb! The clause is not about migration, it's about SLAVERY, hence the TAX! Never in U.S. history have people paid a tax to be in the United States, however, slaver owners as all importers of property payed taxes on the things the import, you know, back when people were thought off as property.

So, I'm sorry by Glenn Boy is wrong, and so are you.

Words have meaning. How can you say it has nothing to do with migration when it says migration or importation?

"The Migration or Importation of such Persons as any of the States now existing shall think proper to admit"

The way it reads, it applies to both migration AND importation, and throwing insults around isn't going to change anything.

English is a waning skill in America, glad some still practice it.

Yes and you two failed English forever. Those two words added to the phrase "such Persons" still clearly applies to slavery.

And btw, Glenn, also shows his genius (or lack thereof) by choosing a part of the Constitution that is no longer law, since it was upended by the anti-slavery amendments in the post-Civil War period.

This clause was written about slavery, it was used to protect the right of slave owning states to import slaves as property and gave the Congress the power to tax that trade.

The whole 'migration' thing, is a non starter which makes Glenn doubly moronic.
