Un-constitutional

Russians have a new symbol of their resurging republic: Miss Constitution. According to organizers of the pagent which chose "a girl worthy of [the Russian Constitution's] image," “The girls must prove they are gifted in many ways,” the spokeswoman said. “Talented, clever, erudite, artistic, witty, graceful, flexible and most important of all not without sparkle.”


Flexible? Who knew the Russian Constitution was witty, graceful and flexible? I wonder if it can do the splits.
