McCollum to file lawsuit against health care bill

ORLANDO, FL -- Moments after Congress voted to approve President Obama's health care legislation, Florida's Attorney General announced he will file a lawsuit to declare the bill unconstitutional.

Bill McCollum will join Attorneys General from South Carolina, Nebraska, Texas, Utah, Pennsylvania, Washington, North Dakota and South Dakota to file a lawsuit against the federal government.

"The health care reform legislation passed by the U. S. House of Representatives this evening clearly violates the U.S. Constitution and infringes on each state's sovereignty," McCollum said in a statement distributed late Sunday night.

"If the President signs this bill into law, we will file a lawsuit to protect the rights and the interests of American citizens."

McCollum will hold a press conference at his Orlando office Monday morning to discuss his plans.

I don’t know about the soccer moms. I know a lot of people who are upset, but I tread carefully among the fellow moms around here. Many of them are big libs, or at least they were in November ‘08. We’re in Montco.

You can't sue them personally for the exercise of their official duties...official immunity.

Liberals are racists. They think they are rich because they got this money from “white” people. Truth is they stole it from honest people, dishonoring parents, stealing from grandparents, conveniencing their lives out of killing their own babies and that of others etc...

Anybody they touch or revere makes these revered automaticaly dishonoring their own loved ones. They are a plague and they will be hated and their honors will not even be used for toilet paper.

Watch this, just watch this. They are a world embarassment of a prostitute of Babylone, the whole lot communist antigod lot of them accross the world. Soddomites indulging in romaticized science, the whole lot of them. May they rot and the worms eat them.

You technically can sue them via not obeying their orders. Then their suit against you is a suit against them. The example of war criminal is a prime one. AND THEY ARE WAR CRIMINAL BECAUSE SOCIALISM IS INHERENTLY A WAR CRIME.

They never want to fight, but either plead “victimhood” and complain of “hate”, or they gain the power to stomp you without you having the ability to fight back. That my friend is the very cowardly Hitlerism against the Jews.

They will now be in full vicious circle death camp mode because they know they are going to be sued. There is no end to this spiral until it all gets revealed and collapses.

This is not a civil matter anymore. Ironic and very Jungian projecting that they turn every single civil peace of legislation into government lead criminal prosecution via thugery and bullying...

Well, that's what I'm talking about. ;)

Montco... I lived in Hatfield, worked in Horsham and Warrington. Had a friend from Telford, and another in Souderton, but he moved to Q-town.

Indeed, never trust them. You cannot trust a self indulging sinner who is in so deep they could be hanged for treason or war crime. The minute legislation or application of the law against such corruption is enacted, they are D O N E.

They will never let that happen. When it was easy they were cowards, don’t expect them when the reality is coming hard on them that they will do the brave thing.

It cannot happen. Save a major thyroid and testicular operation on them and years of spiritual treatment, people like this cannot change and cannot be trusted. It certainly cannot be done by “chance” like this, but a major war or even must occure internaly and externaly for these fools to even start wanting to see differently. Because even wanting to see properly is not enough to purify or to intimate purification from them: as the congress man said, tie our hands, put us in jail, save us from ourselves before it is too late.

Well eventually they will rot and the worms will eat them, but in the meantime, the question is whether we will be content to live [and die] as their serfs.

It won’t happen here in Ohio unless John Kasich is elected governor in November. Our state is run by the marxists as of now.

Thelma louise pelosi is not a man.

Well with all that Botox, she's hardly a real woman either.

Personally, I think some of them are Pod People.

I will be personally suing the Federal Govt.

It's too bad all those congress Critters are indemnified.

I like to get a pound of flesh from them personally.
