She is a disgrace to the name.
This is not going to end well.
“Sen. Lincoln: Congress Can Force Americans to Buy Health Insurance...”
Senator Lincoln, kindly find that in the Constitution or resign your seat immediately.
Just proof that these rotten RATS never read the Constitution. And they swore to uphold it.
Blanche Lincoln’s tenure is over in the Senate next year.
There ought to be some sort of written test in which congressmen are required to correctly answer questions about the constitution before they are allowed to take office.
“We only want ta help you.”
The Constitution means nothing to these people, I am surprised she even mentioned it.
The Constitution was thrown out the door when a Justice of the Supreme Court had the audacity to swear in a man who was not proven qualified, to the office of President of the United States.
That man threw away the Constitution that day.
I am thoroughly convinced that there is a mental illness or derangement syndrome associated with prolonged exposure to government service. Everyone who goes to Washington DC, regardless of party, gets crazier the longer they are there.
I guess this means that Congress can require all Americans to eat Spinach and Broccoli and to jog 20 minutes every other day.
“charges Congress with the health and well-being of the people.”
EQUALS
“promote the general welfare”????????
Idiot . . .
With all due respect, Senator, you are an idiot.
No you can’t Blanche. Your career in the US Senate is finished.
Literacy (an basic Civics) testing should not only be required to vote, but to hold office as well.
End universal suffrage.
Now.
I’ve been saying all along that if they pass a mandatory insurance (a good or service), under the “promote the general welfare” phrase of the Constitution - theres gonna be a lawsuit that lands in front of SCOTUS.
IF SCOTUS upholds it - it’ll open up the floodgates. Congress could then pass ANY bill mandating compulsory goods or services, more lawsuits would then be filed, and then SCOTUS would then be in the unenviable position of having to determine which goods or services “promoted the general welfare” on an individual case basis ...
They should re-institute Poll tests so we don’t elect idiots. I know, it will never happen.
force.........thats tyranny folks.
You want to expropriate my money, then lets have hearings. There won't be any force to force anyone to do anything.
We don't need force to get rid of the likes of Lincoln. She is as good as gone NOW. We DE-ELECT her.
No force necessary.We are civilized.
She works for us. And we just fired her.
The pink slip is in the mail Lincoln.
Um, no government can’t. And I will say so at the back end of my gun, along will millions of others.
Bring an arrest warrant to my door Ms. Hotrod Lincoln...and I show you some cheap toilet paper!
