Rock on.
I think the magic number is 25 states. I’m praying for NJ.
We need to find 5 more.
I think more states will join the lawsuit....once they figure out how much they will have to pay for ObamaCare. Under ObamaCare, states will be required to spend more for healthcare....and will be forced to raise taxes.
And, kudos to FL AG Bill McCollum....who seems to be spear-heading the move. Not only it looks like McCollum will be the next FL governor, he is more consistently conservative than media-darling Marco Rubio....without the baggage...
HELL YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What’s wrong with Rubio’s conservatism? and what ‘baggage’?
And Minnesota files an amicus brief in favor of the health care law.
Indiana is in it now!!! WooHooooo!
What is so magic about 25?
I think there will be more states joining in. Let’s see where we are at in a month.
Only a person utterly devoid of any historic understanding would think this clause (Article VI, Clause 2):
The founders of our nation put the Tenth Amendment into the Constitution for a reason...in fact, the entire Bill of Rights exists to put LIMITS on the federal government.
Journalists today are clueless repeaters of Hussein propaganda.
We are run by mostly jackasses here. (the ONLY state that went to Mondale)
That will change.
OBAMACARE PUSHBACK
‘Medicine is the keystone of the arch of Socialism’
— V. I. Lenin
Points of Constitutional judicial review:
1) IRS validity under the Constitution, Article 1 Section 9: Powers forbidden to Congress. The 16th Amendment could not have passed Congress Constitutionally just like an Ex Post Facto Law or a Bill of Attainder can NOT be Constitutionally passed by Congress.
2) The U.S. House of Representatives has failed since 1911 to organize themselves according to the U.S. Constitution as 1 House Representative for every 30,000 citizens. Because of this Unconstitutional organization of the House since 1911, EVERY piece of passed legislation since 1911 could be struck down as violating that sacred principle of American government: No taxation without representation.
3) Pushback against the 5th Amendment ‘taking’, 9th Amendment right to privacy, 10th Amendment Rights of the States, 13th Amendment right to protection against involuntary servitude, and the 24th Amendment right against the imposition of a poll tax.
4) Equal Protection Clause violations of the 14th Amendment on Cornhusker kickback, Gator Aide, and Louisiana Purchase to cite the most egregious examples.
5) Presidential line-item veto in Stupak Amendment related Executive Order which is Unconstitutional as per Clinton vs. City of New York.
6) Hyde Amendment(1976) violations of Obamacare.
7) Obama was born in Kenya. He is not a Natural Born Citizen as he stated in his Arizona campaign papers; a FELONY.
The beauty of this Obamacare Senate Bill becoming ‘law’, is that it opens up the question of ‘Standing’ to all 308 million Americans with respect to Barry NOT being a Natural Born Citizen as per Article II Section I Clause 5 of the United States Constitution.
We don’t hold it against you Bob.
I agree with your assessment that nothing in Article VI, Clause 2 is in conflict with the 10th Amendment. However, if there were a conflict, the provisions of the 10 Amendment would be controlling since it is a ratified amendment to the basic constitution. After all, isn’t changing the constitution the purpose of amendments?
It’s half of 50
