This is literal and if you excuse the language somewhat naive reading
wg, I know there has been chipping away at the Constitution for years, I just don't understand how it could be considered Constitutional. There was no wiggle room in 'The accused shall enjoy ... to be confronted with the witnesses against him.' Sure, there was deliberately vague language used in many cases so the Constitution could be agreed upon by the founders, but when language is so clear I don't understand how it could be 'interpreted.' And I consider myself an idealist, not naive, tho no offense taken.
