Sleazy, power-hungry politicians, in their goal of buying votes, in essence bribing us with our own money, distort the original meaning and intention of the "General Welfare" and "Commerce" clauses as meaning the government has the authority to do anything!

James Madison, who is considered the main author of the Constitution, should know what the words meant. He

Wow, as a Canadian reading all this, I find it very jaw-dropping. You don't think access to healthcare is constitutional? You have the right to life and liberty, but not access to the means to stay healthy? Does life and liberty not begin with the opportunity to be healthy? You have the right to property? However, if you get sick and don't have healthcare coverage, you may have to

I think the Constituion is pretty clear. It was written to enumerate and limit the power of the Federal Government. I also suppose the constituion is alot like the Bible and if you choose you can interpret it to say just about anything.
The truth is With each law, each tax, each regulation your freedom is washed away. If we allow this unabashed usurpation of our freedom called health care

Does TheCapitalist also object to the requirement that he purchase auto insurance? Does he feel that citizens like me, who despise war, should have the right to reduce our income taxes by the portion allocated to "defense"?

Calling him Mao is totally uncalled for and suggests you have no idea who Mao actually is or what he did - which has nothing in common with Cao's action. In fact there is no more reason to call him Mao than there is to call him any other name that suggests he has no individual identity outside of his ethnicity.

It's not clever. It just shows you to be a moron.

The only reason we are in the mess we are in is because the dogs that run the insurance companies couldn't control their greed. They put money above all else and now their day--after decades of disgusting abuse--is finally coming to an end. You dare to defend the insurance companies? The ones who have bled hundreds of thousands of Americans of their life's work and lifeblood. My

"Mao?" Oh, I get it, because he's Asian. You know who thinks racist tripe like that is funny? Racists.

Conservatism lost, in '06 and '08. The conservative movement needs to suck it up, bring some decent ideas to the table and quit whining like pre-schoolers, and quit with the over-the-top

Here's a reality check for you.

You lost. Time to enrol in ST. Francis University.

If the Constitution were a strictly-limited list of what the government *can* do, then why the need for the Bill of Rights, which DOES, in fact, tell us precisely what the government cannot do?

Face it, nowhere in the Constitution can you find your supposed "originalist" interpretation. Unless you can find a line in there saying that only a limited number of things shall be

What part of "The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes... to provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States" don't you understand? I'd say that universal health care is part of the general welfare of the country.

Indeed, "general welfare" is a pretty broad category, and all your wailing about what the Constitution

All this nonsense talk about 'freedom' and how the evil government is coming to take your freedoms away, I do have to point out:
Your country has been run by and for the corporations. And they are far more oppressive then our government.
Afterall the corporations demand total surfdom and desire to rape you of your worth.
The government doesn't do that.

2009-11-08T14:54:33.251-08:00

I'm pretty sure that the bailouts that you attribute to Obama actually happened under Bush. Also, Medicare drug benefits were born via Delay and Rove, the greatest expansion of welfare in a generation. While it will bankrupt your grandchildren, I don't recall any takeover anything like you are talking about. I think you confuse the words "freedom" and "nationalism".

2009-11-08T06:22:40.678-08:00

Well, we are on the verge of the greatest transfer of individual freedom, from the people to the government, this nation has ever seen.

The one inescapable lesson from the Obama bail outs of AIG, BOA, GM, Chrysler, etc. is:
When you take money from the government, you are inviting it into your life - and it tells you what to do.

Likewise, rest assured once the
