I didn't see a live thread, so I thought I'd start one. Anyone else watching?
Let's take a look at what the Constitution really says:
Article I, Sec. 8
The Congress shall have Power . . . To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes
Health insurance is NOT interstate commerce. I am not allowed to cross state lines to purchase insurance. Health insurance does not qualify as "Commerce among the several states". People that are this ignorant of our foundation of law have no business serving as lawmakers.
I love those videos!! The feminazi is still my fav!
Amen!! Oy, Leahy on now, I must mute!
Funny how none of them used the “we have to pass it to know what’s in it”.
and that is exactly why I have been against allowing insurance to be sold across state lines.....once that starts, the feds can then seize control, and we would have backdoor obamacare....
I completely agree. He also mentioned the ruling in FL.
Michael Carvin was pretty effective as well.
I neglected to mention that his co-author for the WSJ article was Elizabeth Price Foley. She is also a legal scholar and a advocate for individual freedom, she comes to her conclusions from a slightly different direction, see her book, “Liberty for All: Reclaiming Individual Privacy in a New Era of Public Morality”.
Charles Fried, it appears that he is a bit combative, in spite of any rational reasoned questions thrown at him.
If a lightening bolt bounds from the heavens, through the roof of the Capitol Building and strikes Sen. Franken unconscious, or worse, it’s my fault as that’s all I have been hoping for since he started running his sarcastic and annoying mouth.
You are quite correct in your evaluation of Michael Carvin. Note how he responded to the non-lawyer Al Franken. (Is he really a US Senator)?. If so explain to me all the derision over the fact that Ronald Reagan was an actor.
So good when you can Heal yourself. LOL!
Contrast Franken with Senator Mike Lee,Utah, former law clerk to 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals Justice Samuel Alito. His questions should be included in all law school studies.
Hahahaha, that’s the only way I know how to get in touch w/ a mod!!!
Spelling error in the title, how embarrassing!!
good point
Trust me when I say....it won’t only be YOUR fault. Although mine was “stop his heart now”.
I didn’t say that by the way.;)
Not only combative, but he’s talking down to us like we’re children!
I'm STILL in disbelief that man is a freakin Senator!!
It also tells me that he nervous as hell that the Supremes are going to throw this whole steaming pile, right out the back door.
