I think it will make it’s way to the court fairly quickly, 5 or 6 months. I can’t even come up with a constitutional argument in favor of an individual mandate.
The mountain has been pushed and it is falling on the Democrats now.
Yeah, without the unconstitutional part the entire plan falls apart. Which is fine with me.
Read Fox news and Drudge....
Jer 30
5. For thus says the Lord; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace:
6. Ask now, and see whether a man labors with child? Why do I see every man with his hands on his loins, like a woman in labor, and all faces are turned to paleness:
7. Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it; it is a time of trouble for Jacob; but he shall be saved out of it:
8. For it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord of hosts, that I will break his yoke from off your neck, and will burst your bonds, and strangers shall no more enslave him:
9. But they shall serve the Lord their God, and David their king, whom I will raise up to them:
10. Therefore do not fear, O my servant Jacob, says the Lord; nor be dismayed, O Israel; for, behold, I will save you from afar, and your seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and shall be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid:
11. For I am with you, says the Lord, to save you; though I make a full end of all nations where I have scattered you, yet I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in due measure, and will not leave you altogether unpunished:
12. For thus says the Lord, Your hurt is incurable, and your wound is grievous:
13. There is none to plead your cause, that you may be bound up; you have no healing medicines:
It is the time of Jacob's trouble:
Can't wait till November, we'll own thair asses!
Obama said at the White House shortly after the House voted: "This isn't radical reform, but it is major reform."
To our Prez I say...
Banking would be incorrect. housing through fannie & freddie would be more accurate.
Yes, but it is self inflicted 'trouble'.
Obama will be making a pick before the year is out IMO.
If we, get a group of States together and pull out the tenth amendment, we could form a new government and cut the old out of the loop. We could appoint our own SCOTUS. Elect our own reps, and appoint a new senate taking the constitution back to where it worked as a e republic and not a damn democracy that favors population centers and collections of voting blocks wanting free-bees that other must pay for.
We could isolate the remaining states, and they would kill each other. Ending our problems for at least two generations.
That’s all well and good, and there’s always an important role for religion and faith in any important endeavor, but right now we need some kick-ass radicals of our own, from the most accomplished lawyers all the way down to the most ruthless politicains and street brawlers we can find.
Maybe you should apprise them of the Anthem Blue Cross CEO visit to the WH followed by the annnouncement to CA small businesses THEIR rates were going up 39%. Voila! Instant support from the business community.
NULLIFICATION AND INTERPOSITION! ITS TIME TO FIGHT THEM!!!
One of the acts, the Declaratory Act of 1766, stated Parliament had sovereignty over the colonies in "in all cases whatsoever."
Those four words incited the colonists more than any tax. They were blasphemous. Only God had sovereignty in all cases whatsoever.
This health rationing/tax revenue bill is similar to that declaration of power. There is nothing in our lives over which Pelosi, Reid and Obama do not claim to have sovereignty.
“Keep Your Blasted Laws Off My Body!”

It won’t be forgotten. How can this freedom buster, budget buster, rapacious taxer, stingy giver be forgotten?
Thanks for that. “We have not yet begun to fight” is not just a quote from a history book. And we will be adding a few of our own.
