"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldnt make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan |

The repeal of the Volstead Act was not bizarre.
Neither would be the repeal (Please G-d) of Obamacare.
To: SoConPubbie
Because the Media is a bunch of LIB/COmmies.

Obamacare is the bizarre proposition. Obama has amended it unconstitutionally dozens of times. Why the House has not started impeachment is also bizarre.

The repeal of the Volstead Act was not bizarre.Yes, if Prohibition, put in place with a Constitutional amendment, could be repealed then so can the far worse disaster of ObamaCare, a piece of legislation that was passed by the most corrupt process ever used by Congress.

Obamacare is THE issue.
This issue is both fiscal and social and it should be priority number one.
This one issue effects all the other issues more than any other.
This issue is heavy enough to cause bloodshed.
To NOT run with the goal of repealing it is just treasonous in my opinion.

Regardless what activist justices want everybody to think about the constitutionality of constitutionally indefensible
Obamacare Democratcare, Cruz need to do the following. He needs to make sure that the media has received a copy of historical Supreme Court clarifications that the states have never delegated to Congress, via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for public healthcare purposes which he sent them (ahem).
State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress. (emphases added) Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824. Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States. Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
Inspection laws, quarantine laws, health laws of every description (emphasis added), as well as laws for regulating the internal commerce of a state and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c., are component parts of this mass. Justice Barbour, New York v. Miln, 1837.
Direct control of medical practice in the states is obviously (emphasis added) beyond the power of Congress. Linder v. United States, 1925.

This also further illustrates what an absolute disgrace the “mainstream” news media is.
That if it wasn’t for them running constant interference, Barry would be in the basement bunker of the White House 24hrs a day.

he understands.
He knows he was talking to the enemy when he said it. And Karl played perfectly into his hand by being so impulsively offended at the thought of repealing Obamacare.

You're kidding, right?
You don't understand a rhetorical question when you see/hear one?

It is deliberate, it is meant to do just what it is doing now and what I hate even more is our so called side telling us that we may not be able to kill it, or we must fix it, or it is something we can work with.

Well, I do’t get it either.
However, Obamacare destroyed what we had, so whoever wants to repeal it has to propose a good, immediately accessible stystem to replace it.
Get in with the insurance companies and medical profession and see what would work the best.
