“What happened to McConnell’s promise of a ‘root and branch’ Obamacare repeal? [VIDEO]”
Dump McConnell!!
Obamacare is now on par with Social Security and Medicare: a 3rd rail to the establishment.
Those Rinos who want to save Obamacare need to come clean and admit it.
The Lying Has To Stop! If you don’t support repeal, then you go on record and say “I will not support repeal of Obamacare”.
Those who want Obamacare to become permanent law must wear it and they will have to face their constituencies with their scarlet letters prominently displayed.
And yet they’ll run on repealing it in the midterms. Yes, they think we’re that stupid.
Of course. As with most laws, congress exempted itself from Obamacare. Why should congress care if your premiums are $1,200 per month with a $6,000 copay?
Patriots are reminded that the fact that some RINOs want to keep Obamacare is constitutionally meaningless.
More specifically, regardless what lawless Obama’s state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices want everybody to think about Obamacare, consider that the Founding States effectively “repealed” Obamacare by not expressly constitutionally delegating to Congress the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for INTRAstate healthcare purposes. This is evidenced by the excerpts below, most excerpts from the writings of previous generations of state sovereignty-respecting Supreme Court justices.
Regarding the constitutionality of the Obamacare insurance mandate for example, note the fourth entry in the list below from Paul v. Virginia. The excerpt clarifies that regulating insurance is not within the scope of Congress’s Commerce Clause powers (1.8.3), regardless if the parties negotiating the insurance policy are domiciled in different states.
"Our citizens have wisely formed themselves into one nation as to others and several States as among themselves. To the united nation belong our external and mutual relations; to each State, severally, the care of our persons [emphasis added], our property, our reputation and religious freedom.” —Thomas Jefferson: To Rhode Island Assembly, 1801.
“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.
"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.
"4. The issuing of a policy of insurance is not a transaction of commerce within the meaning of the latter of the two clauses, even though the parties be domiciled in different States, but is a simple contract [emphases added] of indemnity against loss.” —Paul v. Virginia, 1869. (The corrupt feds have no Commerce Clause (1.8.3) power to regulate insurance.)
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Drain the swamp! Drain the swamp!
Remember in November ’18 !
Since Trump entered the ’16 presidential race too late for patriots to make sure that there were state sovereignty-respecting candidates on the primary ballots, patriots need make sure that such candidates are on the ’18 primary ballots so that they can be elected to support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.
Such a Congress will also be able to finish draining the swamp with respect to getting the remaining state sovereignty-ignoring, activist Supreme Court justices off of the bench.
Noting that the primaries start in Iowa and New Hampshire in February ‘18, patriots need to challenge candidates for federal office in the following way.
While I Googled the primary information above concerning Iowa and New Hampshire, FReeper iowamark brought to my attention that the February primaries for these states apply only to presidential election years. And after doing some more scratching, since primary dates for most states for 2018 elections probably haven’t been uploaded at this time (March 14, 2017), FReepers will need to find out primary dates from sources and / or websites in their own states.
Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitution’s Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal government’s powers.
Patriots also need to find candidates that are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal government’s limited powers listed above.
McConnell, Ryan and the RINOs have no intention of repealing Obamacare.
They are the attendants of Fedzilla and Fedzilla derives great power from controlling all health care decisions and medical records.
They will try to preserve as much of Obamacare as they possibly can to preserve that power for Fedzilla.
They serve Fedzilla, not the citizens.
> we’ll just have to see how that works out
We have.
RINO rot controls the Republican party
Back when he was reelected I warned that to do so could neutralize even the best, most conservative POTUS. Unless the senate agrees to replace him, or he is retired for health reasons, McConnell and Ryan will single handedly prevent the conservative agenda from being realized, as much as they possibly can.
Go go GOP fail train. CHOO CHOO! Chuga, chuga, chuga, chuga, glug, glug, glug.
He wants the Democrats to pay for it in the Senate elections in 2018.
With rare exception, repeal Obama care was as much a red meat line as lock her up.
How many of them were honest prior to the last election?
Unfortunately, letting it die naturally may be the only way to get the public to realize what an abject failure it truly was. Any fix, no matter how inconsequential, that is implemented by Trump and Republicans will be spun so that Obamacare’s failure is their fault.
