On August 3, the voters of Missouri overwhelmingly voted for Proposition-C, which forbids the government (state or federal) from forcing the citizens of the “Show-Me-State” to buy health insurance. It now appears that the voters of Colorado will also get the opportunity to repudiate Obamacare’s individual mandate:
Voters will get a chance in November to decide whether […]

COLORADO BECOMES LATEST STATE TO PUT ANTI-OBAMACARE AMENDMENT ON BALLOT
VIDEO: WHEAT, WEED AND OBAMACARE
The argument used by the President and his congressional accomplices to justify Obamacare’s individual mandate is that it is permitted by the Constitution’s commerce clause. This video from reason.tv explains the history of the commerce clause and why it doesn’t permit the mandate:
VIDEO: DEM REP CALLS QUESTIONS ABOUT REFORM & THE CONSTITUTION “SILLY STUFF”
This is the congressman who recently said, “I don’t care about the Constitution.” The videographer asks him what provision of the Constitution allows Congress to force people to buy health insurance, and this “representative” of Illinois citizens calls such questions “silly stuff.” Well, the congressman and his Democrat accomplices are about to discover (on November […]
DUMBEST REFORM POST OF THE WEEK (XIV)
The past week produced a lot of tough competition for this coveted prize. For sheer cluelessness, however, this post by JournoList founder Ezra Klein takes the bisquit. He manages to say something stupid in almost every line. He begins by repeating the following idiotic canard:
I’m really not sure why conservatives are so excited that an electorate primarily made […]
VIDEO: HOWARD DEAN SAYS OBAMACARE MANDATE IS A GONER
He also says that ObamaCare will be fine without it, which means he doesn’t know that the Democrats in Congress were too stupid to put a severability clause in the final legislation. The absence of such a clause means that, if the Supreme Court declares the mandate unconstitutional (as it probably will), the entire ObamaCare […]
45,000 DEMOCRAT ACTIVISTS VOTED AGAINST OBAMACARE IN MISSOURI REFERENDUM
About 585,000 GOP and third-party voters showed up at the polls, but the anti-Obamacare measure received 670,000 votes. So, who were the other 85,000 people who voted for Prop-C? Michael Tanner does the math:
Even if the 40,000 or so voters who apparently cast a vote for Proposition C but not for a primary candidate all voted in […]
MSM PEDDLES PROP-C WHOPPER
The Democrat party line on Missouri’s anti-Obamacare referendum is that it presents no serious legal obstacle for the implementation of Obamacare because federal law supersedes state law. This BS is, of course, being repeated throughout the establishment “news” media. CBS provides a typical example:
Federal law generally supersedes state law, making the [Proposition C] vote essentially symbolic.
This […]
ANTI-OBAMACARE MEASURE PASSES BY HUGE MARGIN IN MISSOURI REFERENDUM
It looks like Missouri’s Proposition-C, which forbids the government (state or federal) from forcing the citizens of the “Show-Me State” to buy health insurance, has passed with about 70% of the vote.
Predictably, Proposition-C’s opponents (including most of the “news” media) are putting out a lot of misinformation about the referendum. The full text is here, but the […]
OBAMACARE: JUDGE HANDS DOJ A MAJOR DEFEAT IN CONSTITUTIONAL CHALLENGE
U.S. District Judge Henry Hudson has refused to grant a dismissal requested by the Obama administration in a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of ObamaCare. The administration had argued that Virginia has no standing to sue, but the judge didn’t buy that BS:
Virginia’s lawsuit challenging the Obama administration’s health care reform law cleared its first legal hurdle Monday […]
VIRGINIA JUDGE HEARS OPENING ARGUMENTS IN OBAMACARE SUIT
The legal challenge to Obamacare filed by Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli went before a judge yesterday. And somewhat miraculously, the case is being heard in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia by a FAIR judge. As Bill Dupray over at Liberty Pundits puts it:
Judge Henry Hudson, a Bush appointee and former […]
