The Leftists have taken their clothes off and have crossed the Rubicon for the attack! We will have many more defensive struggles against the left including amnesty, energy taxes, card check, but despite that, we need stay on the offensive with the impending constitutional crisis caused by the progressives.

This is the crisis created (I believe intentionally by the Left) by the establishment of a health care mandate. The mandates as federal law essentially establish a new precedent for the federal government to force individuals to engage in contacts with others. If left unchallenged, federal power will also be unchallenged. This must not slip out of the headlines and we need to redouble our efforts to insist on state statutes and amendments that nullify the mandates. We need more state AG lawsuits. All governors and presidential candidates must take the pledge to de-fund, interpose, and issue executive orders against the mandates (and any other unconstitutional aspects of 0bamacare) on behalf of their citizens.

At town halls, we must continue to demand answers from people like Queens Rep Anthony Weiner as to exactly how will you enforce your mandates? I believe that Weiner waffled because there may not be any statutory authority for the IRS because the mandate is not an income or payroll tax but is in effect a capitation tax and out of their jurisdiction. It is possible that congress may have to pass some Soviet style law giving the IRS the specific authority to fine, tax and penalize in this situation. Another winning debate for the Left? A chance for Rush to defy authoritarianism by publicly refusing to comply!

Politics is war without weapons. We cannot win this war through defensive action alone. History has given us numerous examples (the current war on terror, the Inchon landing in Korea and the Romans invading Carthage) that offense is needed for victory. They have exposed themselves. The Leftists are clearly our irreconcilable and mortal enemies.
