The biggest mistake the Framers made when writing the Const and Bill of Rights, is leaving out a statement declaring penalties for lawmakers who violate them.
Cute concept, but how would that work? Do you sanction the writers, the co-sponsors, or everybody, including the president who signed it, and members who voted for it?
And is there a statute of limitations? Some laws get overturned a century after their enactment, so anybody involved has long departed the reach of sanctions.
