I haven't maintained a ping list for this action. If you know a few Freepers that have been following along please feel free to do the honors.
Can we say we are no longer being represented by our government or laws..We have a form of Oligarchy which is turning communist, with an anti Christian and Jewish twist..
May God bless those who seek Him, and seek freedom and love and curse those who are deceptive and seek their own power..in Jesus name I pray..
Obongo has already achieved his goal with government healthcare, he’s divided the nation deeper than anytime since the Civil War. Can any thinking person really believe his wild eyed crusade to ram “healthcare” down our throats was to improve the well being of Americans? The man hates white Americans and our history; his crusade was to divide us, and it worked. His socialist agenda was orchastrated to unite his communist, socialist, atheist and sexually deviant allies against Christian and conservative Americans. He has, more or less, commenced the battle for America’s soul through his un-constitutional actions and words. It may not be a bloody battle we’re in, but it’s sure going to be a long, hard fought and decisive battle for the soul of America. He’s not going to stop or concede anything, nor will we.
25,000 named plaintiffs? Really?
No competent lawyer who is experienced in class actions would file a class action with 25,000 named plaintiffs. 25 would be a lot. 25,000 is a joke.
Class actions are usually filed by a handful of named plaintiffs. You want more than one named plaintiff in case one or more get dropped during the course of the lawsuit. The named plaintiffs must prove all of the legal requirements/elements for a class action lawsuit. For instance, their claims must be typical of the class. They have to prove actual damages, not hypothetical damages. There are other requirements as well. Read the rules of civil procedure for Tenn.
The purpose of a class action is to make it easier to adjudicate the claims of a large group of people, the class. A lawsuit with 25,000 named plaintiffs defeats that purpose. If this lawsuit really has 25,000 named plaintiffs, don’t be surprised when it is dismissed again and again in spite of plaintiffs’ counsel’s forum shopping (filing in different courts to obtain a “favorable” judge).
One more point about class actions- the first step is getting the class certified. Once the class is certified, the case proceeds to step two, the merits of the case. This case was dismissed simply because the certification requirements cannot met with 25,000 plaintiffs. Those 25,000 would each have to prove how they have been damaged by Obamacare. The purpose of a class action is precisely so you don’t waste judicial resources proving 25,000 individual cases. The ruling has absolutely nothing to do with the commerce clause. The case did not reach the point where it would be addressed.
There are legitimate lawsuits fighting Obamacare. Follow Virginia’s case. Cuccinelli knows what he is doing.
