As the Committee of Conundrums convened in emergency session, it became clear that all present were in unanimous agreement: reason was, in fact, abandoned. The minutes of the meeting reveal that every last shred of logic was discarded, tossed into a dumpster behind the committee chambers, never to be seen again.

As the meeting drew to a close, a lone voice was heard to exclaim, "But wait! What of the Constitution? Does it not say something about, uh, 'Reason and Logic' or something?"
The Chair of the Committee, a stout man with a beard and a look of utter dismay, banged his gavel with a resounding "Not now, you fool! We're past that stage. Now let us proceed to the really important decisions: which flavor of donut to order for the meeting!"
