“I think he said it’s OUR job to determine whether or not this law is acceptable. We never got the chance to truly vote on it the first time, because of Democrat machinations.”

We don’t ever vote on laws, our representatives do. It’s his job, along with the other justices to determine wheter a law is Constitutional. Have you read your Constitution lately? It doesn’t sound like you have.

Yes, I'm familiar with the Constitution, dear. My comment referred to the fact that we didn't have the chance to let our representatives know our opinions on specifics of the bill, because we hadn't seen it. Even THEY hadn't seen it!

So even though many of us contacted our Representatives and Senators, our protests were in the general sense. Now that we KNOW what's in the bill, we can quote chapter and verse in our opposition to it. And it is OUR responsibility to work to correct Congress when they've done something with which we disagree, if we can convince enough of our fellow citizens to do so.
