rights ARE absolute.

from the 5th Amendment - "nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law"

this means that rights are absolute and can ONLY be denied or restricted through due process of law.

let's not go the route of intellectual dishonesty by trying to twist words and phrases in to meanings that have no relevance.
