AFAIK the Constitution is silent on expiration and rescinding amendments but I'm glad conservatives feel they can rewrite the rules when they see fit. The last amendment to pass had like a 200 year gap between introduction and approval as well.
But again, the only precedents or rules that seem to matter in discussion of the Constitution with libertarians and conservatives are the rules and precedents they make up themselves or choose to honor. Henceforth I'll just shorthand this dismissively as 'similar nonsense'.
No, it's a serious question. If one part of a document isn't binding, why is any of it binding? There needs to be a reason for differentiation.
