So the mandate forcing people to buy insurance in Obamacare got struck down as unconstitutional. That’s wacky. I mean, obviously what’s in Obamacare is so far and away from the scope of the federal government as the Founders intended that the mere suggestion of Obamacare would cause the Founding Father to grab their muskets, but I thought we stopped caring about that. Yet, a judge actually ruled based on the Constitution and not some goateed impostor Constitution form an alternate dimension. And the judge didn’t just wave his hand in the air and say, “Commerce Clause!”
Well, that’s a dill of pickle for liberals. They at least comforted themselves during their huge losses in November that they got Obamacare passed and — as is the nature of entitlements — it would be there forever (or until the entitlements society collapses in riots like is happening in Europe). Now it looks as though they might have went on their suicide mission all for naught.
As 20th century philosopher Nelson Muntz would say, “Haw haw.”
“Unconceivable!”
“You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.”
Wow! Who woulda thunk a judge would realize allowing Congress to regulate non-activity is a step towards allowing Congress to regulate dead people and breathing?
Maybe, just maybe, Nancy Pelosi should have read the Constitution to see what was in it before passing the bill.
B-Rad, it’s actually Inconceivable – 🙂
Obamacare – the suckage that keeps on sucking.
I believe this is covered by the Michelle Obama “We can’t just leave it up to the parents” clause that apparently appears somewhere near the “separation of church and state” quote in the Constitution, allowing democrats in the government total control over you and your family.
“goateed impostor”
You would have to bring Spock into this, Frank.
Wow, I bet the Dems are wishing they were against judicial reform now.
Sorry, that should have been were not against.
On the topic of the Constitution, the US Constitution authorizes the federal government to provide for general welfare. Getting rid of liberals would improve the general welfare of the country. Thus, the Constitution authorizes the federal government to send liberals to the moon.
It still has the Supremes, with the wise Latina to say it’s OK.
This would be a great idea if you sent the liberals there just before Frank nukes it. That way we would be rid of them and that pesky planet wannabe in one go.
Idiots, it’s in the ‘Good and Plenty’ clause!
Either that, or the “Whatever the hell we feel like doing because we’re in power” clause.
Now I want Good ‘n Plenties.
20th and part-time 21st century stringed instrumentalist Roy Clark would have said, “Hee Haw”.
Forcing people to buy health care……….taxing people to use documents (Stamp Act). How far we haven’t come. Sigh.
Bush appointed the judge, so it’s Booooshes fault! That should make them feel better.
If we had a Republican with any stones, he would have slipped in a provision requiring all Americans to buy guns! Same diff. Then the Democrats could argue that one in front of the Commerce Clause…. Is the Commerce Clause like Santa’s brother or something?
