What's there to rewrite? There's no fundamental problem with the US constitution; the only problems arise from extreme interpretations. As for making it more specific, that is exactly what the amendments do: guarantee specific rights of citizens and set forth specific boundaries. If the entire Constitution were rewritten to be more specific, it would likely turn out to be too limiting for most, and the few extremists would be able to find some technical loophole to protect themselves.

What, you mean besides the nuclear weapons and nerve gas? While I wouldn't necessarily support an attempt to assassinate Saddam Hussein, that still doesn't change the fact that he's a bleeding lunatic with the potential to destroy the world a dozen times over.

Dubya wasn't elected because of any noble characteristics, or because he was a fearless leader; he was elected because he wasn't quite as bad as Gore. He's a terrible public speaker, it's obvious that he knows nothing about international politics, and people would likely be happiest if he would just stay in the background and do his job, rather than showing up on TV every day to remind people that he's what they had to settle for. And I really don't think he needs to worry about staying in power; he's guaranteed three and a half more years as far as presidential powers go, and he doesn't have any other influence of which to speak.
