"The purpose of a written constitution is to bind up the several branches of government by certain laws, which, when they transgress, their acts shall become nullities; to render unnecessary an appeal to the people, or in other words a rebellion, on every infraction of their rights, on the peril that their acquiescence shall be construed into an intention to surrender those rights."
- Thomas Jefferson
Yesterday the American people got a slap in the face as our Constitution was spat upon, and by extension the will of the people. Universal health care used to be the Holy Grail of liberal progressives and they succeeded in fulfilling their quest, albeit a shaky fulfillment; many states are gearing up to fight it if the government tries to make it a mandate. We'll see as time goes by and November rolls around.
The removal of these incumbent politicians is way pass due. However, I issue a warning to anyone running to oust their opponent during the midterms: If you campaign on repealing Obamacare, you had best not make it an empty promise. If you don't make it a campaign slogan, it would be in your best interest to do so. Right now these reprobates have a foot in the door to do anything they want and if they are not run out of office, it'll get worse.
The root of the problem is that the majority of our politicians no longer listen to us. They believe that the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence no longer applies and they give rights to its citizens. These documents, to them, is a roadblock to their agenda and have been slowly chipping away at it for decades and succeeded and they need to stopped.
If you believe that there is such a thing as a pro life democrat, well now you know better. If you believed that there were such things as "moderate" republicans or democrats, well now you know better. When Scott Brown won, the democrats knew that the writing was on the wall and they turned up the heat by making back room deals and committing felonious crimes to get their agenda pushed through.
And we were telling you this in 2008, during the campaigns. For those of you who voted for Obama, how's that hope and change working out for you now? And I'm mainly asking the independents this question.
What should happen next is a trip to the SCOTUS. This has got to be fought to the bitter end until all avenues have been exhausted and the states take up the fight. When November comes up on the calendar, then it's time to take it to the ballot box and run these people out of office and repeal it.
And you know what? Whether you like it or not, it's our fault.
