Crush Liberalism

Liberalism: Why think when you can “feel”?

Quote of the day, “Pelosi’s Stalinist view of the Constitution” edition

Dude, this chick is just scary as Hades.  Details:

As Harry Reid’s health care bill moves to the Senate floor, the debate over Obamacare finally begins in earnest. Shouldn’t the Constitution be part of that debate? By what authority, after all, could Congress force all Americans to buy health insurance?

In a recent press release, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., argues that constitutional objections to the individual mandate are “nonsensical,” because “the power of Congress to regulate health care is essentially unlimited.” We eagerly await your orders, ma’am!

Wow.  According to her logic (and that of statists like her), Congress can pretty much regulate anything without limit…that annoying and pesky Constitution thingy be damned.

  1. I love how the left sees things in the Constitution and are willing to destroy the economy to do it, yet wish to defund major roles of the government as listed in the Constitution, such as National Defense, War and Securing the Borders.

  2. Sadly, even the “conservative” justices on the Supreme Court rarely if ever slap down Congress for exercising unchecked legislative powers under the guise of the “Commerce Clause.”
