The deem-and-pass (aka, Demon Pass) legislation, while not entirely new (it's been used by both parties mainly to pass unpopular increases in the federal debt limit), is certainly unconstitutional. To use it on the seizure of 1/6 of the US economy is however brazen beyond belief.
Reconciliation (the so-called "nuclear option") was bad enough.... but this on top of that is simply breathtaking. What is happening now is what I understood in my spirit during the election, with much grief: America as we know it is dead. It's just taking time for the corpse to cool off and the parasites to circle overhead, lead by Obama. Obama's interview with FOX yesterday was also interesting for the manner in which he summarily dismissed any concern over the legislative maneuver. If there is anything IN his job description, it is precisely to "preserve, protect and defend" the Constitution against "all enemies, foreign and domestic." It is NOT to seize 1/6 of the US economy and remove its administration from Congressional purview, which is precisely what ObamaCare does. The country entrusted the Constitution to a man who fundamentally hates it and is overloading the system with attempts to break it. Cloward Piven, eat your heart out. Saul Alinsky, start taking notes. Since he is clearly one of those enemies (recall his 2003 radio interview in which he declared the Constitution "fundamentally flawed to this day", and never mind whether he is technically a foreign or a domestic foe at this point it hardly matters), the end justifies the means no matter what a farce it makes of our once mighty Constitutional safeguards. Look for illegal immigrant amnesty next to ensure an perpetual voting bloc that will never, ever reverse the totalitarian control of our economy. - Publius On Thu, Mar 18, 2010 at 10:52 AM, Michael Madigan <[email protected]> wrote: > Shortly there will be an unconstitutional "deem and pass" vote in the House. > The Dems will pass the health care bill.
