THE CONSTITUTION ACCORDING TO GARY BAUERBauer claims to love his country, but he despises the federal government and its employees--unless, of course, they're forcing his will on the rest of us (''Rumble on the Right: A talk with Gary Bauer,'' Government, Sept. 14). He doesn't want ''the Washington bureaucracy to get within 100 miles'' of public schools when it comes to education standards, but he hopes to persuade the federal courts to allow prayer in the classroom. He says: ''Washington will regulate a business to death,'' but he encourages it to regulate our sex lives. He supports human rights (instead of freer trade) with China, but his pinched view omits women's reproductive freedom and wants to make global trade agreements conditional on abortion restrictions. Bauer's agenda is self-serving hypocrisy. If the radical Religious Right wins its political battles, it will be the death of the Republican Party.
