Constitutionality Of Passed Health Care Bill Will Be Challenged
December 22, 2009
It has come to this! It is so bad in this country that we really don’t know when something that is illegal is illegal or not. The recently voted on “Demcare” bill, is being challenged by some in the Senate as to whether it is legal. Specifically at issue is whether the U.S. Government can force its citizens to buy their approved health care insurance or pay fines for failing to do so. I wonder if anyone will challenge that everyone will be forced to pay for abortions?
They really need to question this? If our schools taught the Constitution anymore, a second grader could easily tell you this is illegal but this is why everyone in Congress and the White House must vacate. They have become useless, a burden on American citizens and a direct tyrannical threat to the continuation of America, home of the brave and land of the free. Most in Congress don’t care what the Constitution says.
And those who pretend they do, make statements like Sen. John Ensign (R-Nevada), one of the sponsors of the bill challenging the legality of Demcare.
“I am incredibly concerned that the Democrats’ proposed individual mandate provision takes away too much freedom and choice from Americans across the country,” said Senator Ensign. “As an American, I felt the obligation to stand up for the individual freedom of every citizen to make their own decision on this issue. I don’t believe Congress has the legal authority to force this mandate on its citizens.”
This is either what Sen. Ensign meant and believes or he did not choose his words carefully. He said he is concerned the proposed mandate would take away “too much freedom and choice”. What that says to me, and I’ll will wager that I am right, is that taking away some freedom and individual choices is acceptable to him and therein lies one of our biggest problems.
This anti constitutional mindset that grips this country and our government, has systematically worked at destroying all our freedoms and individual choices for many years. Compromise on morals and ideals has driven us to a point of no return, for disregard for the U.S. Constitution. Your representatives and my representatives believe they have the right to force us to live by their whims, their ideals. Where I went to school and learned that is called tyranny.
The Senate will have its vote. It will prove nothing. Nothing will change. It’s only more games of charades. A matter of too little, too late. However, pay attention to see how your senator voted. It might tell you whether they give one rat’s hind end about freedom, individual choice or the future of America, a free country. The only peaceful weapon you have left is the ballot box next November.

There is no Constitutional anything allowing them to do this… The Red Republic of the U.S.S. A. – United Socialist State of Anal is at it again.. I really wonder if there will be a vote in 2010… These cretins are acting like the know there will not be a vote if you ask me…
The public and Congress should be outraged that a task force developing national strategy and interventions to be carried out by the states can work behind closed doors and is not subject to the protections in The Federal Advisory Committee Act, Appendix 2 of title 5, United States Code
Appendix 2 of title 5, The Federal Advisory Committee Act, provides the safeguards so that federal government committees and task forces are kept to a minimum, requires that congress and the public be informed of what these committees are doing and their cost and states that the committees should be terminated when no longer needed.
Buried in the health care bill – HR 3590, on page 1146, is a short little section that says:
“providing for home visits that promote immunization through education, assessments of need, referrals, provision of immunizations, or other services; ‘providing immunization reminders or recalls for target populations of clients, patients, and consumers’; … to allow all States to have electronic databases for immunization records’.

How many Senators are aware of this little section, if any? I’m sure the public is not aware of this.
