Then when the IRS comes after you, file a lawsuit that essentially states that, since Charles Rangel, Timothy Geithner, Hilda Solis, Kathleen Sebelius, Tom Daschle, and the other Obama Party members were allowed to pay their taxes only when and where they felt like it, if indeed they paid them at all, with no threat of punishment or imprisonment, that to not allow you to do similarly is a violation of equal protection.

The penalty will be far cheaper than the cost of the insurance. What that means is, there will be no reason to buy insurance any more. You will be able to get coverage after you are sick – like getting homeowners’ insurance after your house is already on fire – and it will be far cheaper to do so, merely paying the IRS fine each year until you are sick. That is not only to your advantage, it is a way that we can collectively bankrupt the immoral, evil system that ObamaGreidPelosi propose to put in place.

It is precisely this setup that will most probably lead to a ruling that the bill is unconstitutional under the fifth amendment. There appears to be ample, settled corporate case law against this sort of scheme. More details here:

Although I am by no means an optimist about the coming course of events, the detailed article cited at the above link has improved my outlook a bit. It would be highly amusing to see our legislators slapped down by the courts. The same thing happened in the 1930′s to the worst elements of the New Deal.

So know we’ve got the individual mandate, where Congress is forcing citizens to buy a financial product from a profit-making private enterprise if that firm is on a government approved list. Many think this is unconstitutional. I’ve seen blogs that suggest the sweatheart deal Ben Nelson struck could violate the “equal protection” clause. And now DeMint’s find. I’m no lawyer so I don’t know if any of these have merit, but some pretty smart people think they do.

I don’t know if I should be happy that we may have legal grounds to challenge the bill, or at least specific provisions of it, or sad that Democrats are willing to piss all over the constitution and engage in tyrannical practices to impose its will to satsify a political agenda in pursuit of a policy most people don’t want.

Just before they all bite down on the cyanide capsule, they will sing the progressive anthem, raise a glass for wars fought and battles waged and then lie down in their swan boats to be ferried off to downtown Utopia.

Another example today – there is a Quinnipiac poll out whose blaring headline is “U.S. Voters Oppose Health Care Plan By Wide Margin” – that seems to be the official line in so many of these polls. But actually the numbers are not all that different than the CNN poll, but they do not do the breakdown as to WHY people are opposed. But they do give us some reason to infer what that breakdown might be:

“While voters oppose the health care plan, they back two options cut from the Senate bill, supporting 56 – 38 percent giving people the option of coverage by a government health insurance plan and backing 64 – 30 percent allowing younger people to buy into Medicare. ”

Once again – and this is a very consistent finding in all these polls – a strong majority actually support positions well to the left of Obamacare – public option and Medicare buy-in. So again, in this poll, I think it pretty obvious that at least some significant percent of the overall “oppose” group is opposition coming from the left.

And these people will, I am hypothesizing, eventually, grudgingly come to accept the bill as the best that could be done at this time. And they will, of course, never go out and vote Republican.

you might be surprised. There are plenty of folk who vote Democrat who are totally furious over what has taken place.

And notice how the poor pathetic child Tano starts to insist that every single other poll is wrong and that CNN’s poll is the only authority out there.

The poor Tano child is truly lost in his delusion, as was shown this past afternoon. No grip of history, no grip on reality, just a mindless repeating of talking points with a complete inability to process or accept the failures of his messiah and his Obama Party.

Also, I truly believe that at the rate the Obamacrats are spending, the Federal government will be bankrupt in five years – or less. That may bring about the repeal of of welfare programs that you’re talking about – with, unfortunately, a lot of economic distress and collateral damage to America along the way.

If ObamaGreidCare passes, all people of good conscience should absolutely try to bankrupt it with their own form of the Cloward-Piven strategy. Let me explain.

The ObamaGreidCare bill will simultaneously make it illegal to deny people coverage for pre-existing conditions, mandate that people buy insurance, and have the IRS collect a financial penalty on them if they don’t. The penalty will be far cheaper than the cost of the insurance. What that means is, there will be no reason to buy insurance any more. You will be able to get coverage after you are sick – like getting homeowners’ insurance after your house is already on fire – and it will be far cheaper to do so, merely paying the IRS fine each year until you are sick. That is not only to your advantage, it is a way that we can collectively bankrupt the immoral, evil system that ObamaGreidPelosi propose to put in place.

Ooops. CNN poll today…

“”As you may know, the U.S. Senate is considering a bill that would make major changes in the country’s health care system. Based on what you have read or heard about that bill, do you generally favor it or generally oppose it?” If oppose: “Do you oppose that bill because you think its approach toward health care is too liberal, or because you think its approach toward health care is not liberal enough?” Combined responses

Favor – 42%
Oppose – not liberal enough – 13%

Oppose – too liberal – 39%

Other/Unsure – 6%

Seems to me that, as I pointed out the other day (although then – different poll – the numbers were not quite as dramatic as this) we have 55% – thats a healthy MAJORITY supporting Obamacare or something to the left of it.

Sorry guys, but at some point y’all are going to have to open your eyes and face reality. You so often seem more intent on telling yourselves pleasant little stories than dealing with how things really are – maybe this is why you have lost power and likely not to be entrusted with it again any time soon.

The majority of Americans are NOT WITH YOU on this.
