The constitution has some wiggle room, but not enough for politicians. They go outside the wiggle room sometimes with the support of the courts, sometimes without.

Oh. Well, if it's not in the Constitution then the Hell with it! :-)

Hardline Constitution believers remind me of hardline Bible believers.

The US constitution is a document that spells out what the gov't is allowed to do. Everything else is outside of their domain. The fact that it has become the norm for that to be overlooked, does not change the intention of the founders of this country.

Unless spelled out, the US gov't does not have the right to spend money in support of the arts.
