"The Constitution has not been amended to allow this kind of spending, so why is it that a federal district judge didn’t bother to mention that “grants” from the US government aren’t provided for in the document he claims to uphold? Instead, he based his ruling on statute, rather than upholding his oath."

In the practice of "Law," when a issue (lawsuit) can be solved via a statute, their is no need to address the constitutional merits. legalize 101. :-(
It's been that way for a very LONG TIME!

I could not find the statutes...It is late, but perhaps you could link to the ones judge used in his ruling.

The Constitutional merits should be discussed each and every time. If that had been done, maybe we could have avoided a lot of this Big Government unpleasantness.
