Cuccinelli Says 'Liberty' on the Line as Judge Weighs Virginia Health Care Suit

Virginia's top-ranking attorney warned Monday that the federal government will be able to order Americans to "buy anything" if the state's lawsuit against the health care overhaul goes down, after a federal judge in Richmond heard arguments in the landmark case.

U.S. District Judge Henry Hudson said he will rule by the end of the year on the constitutionality of the Obama administration's health care law. The case is proceeding separately from one in Florida, where a federal judge last week allowed a multistate challenge to go forward.

Cuccinelli is a hero of the republic. “Liberty on the line” is absolutely correct.

Our very lives are at stake and I do mean lives. The Imam’s Death Panels will be the State Executioner for whomever Big Brother deems unworthy of medical care.

Where do you think Freepers and Conservatives and whomever else is deemed a political enemy are on Big Brother’s “ do not give” list???

That’s the whole point of getting control of health care.

We’re already seeing an aspect of it with the waivers and kickbacks to politically favorable groups.

I believe that the great one, Mark Levin and his Landmark Legal Foundation, are carrying water for this heroic effort. God bless the warriors!

This is the one that’s gonna kill Obamacare. On Greta last night they said the judge was implying there was nothing to prevent the entire bill from being overturned on this one point. Apparently the RATs left out some language that could have kept the rest of the bill intact if he ruled against this one point.

Our rears ends are on the line too if the Death Panels get geared up and Big Brother determines who lives and who dies. Obama will appoint an Eichmann wannabe to head up his Death Panels. Never Again?

I wonder what the political effect would be if this judge ruled that the ObamaCare abomination was unconstitutional just before the election. Would it demoralize the socialists and keep even more of them home? Would it demoralize real Americans because they would think they don’t need to vote to preserve freedom? I have no clue, and I’d rather win this war for freedom by obliterating the socialist power block in our government than win through to the same objective one painful battle at a time.

Cucinelli REALLY has the left’s panties in a knot here in VA and hopefully nationwide. And not only the left, but the RINOs too - remember this is the home of the granddaddy of RINOs, John Warner. Good things are happening here in the Old Dominion. What little remains of 0’s ‘foundation’ is washing away like a sand castle. Godspeed to ALL the warriors!!
