[QUOTE="ConstitutionCowboy, post: 1832270, member: 745"] Though I've not had the chance to read Robert's opinion on the Obama Care debacle, I believe I heard that Roberts wrote - and four other Justices concurred - that Congress enacted the will of the people with the passage of Obama Care. Those five citizens, though they sit on the most powerful bench in the judicial system, couldn't be more wrong. [size=+2] The will of the people is that which is expressed in the Constitution and not what the current demagogued desideratum might be![/size] If anything not granted Congress to legislate is the will of the people, it must be made possible for Congress to enact such law via an amendment to the Constitution. I'm ashamed of the Court for expressing and acting upon such drivel. I'm ashamed of the rest of us - myself included - for allowing this debacle to stand as the law of the land. We reap what we have sewn, and we reap the weeds we allow to grow as well. I've had a bitter taste in my mouth since the Court vomited out this decision. I wonder how many of us will swallow... I hope that made you gag. Woody [indent][color=brown]"The basis of our political systems is the right of the people to make and to alter their constitutions of government. But the Constitution which at any time exists, 'till changed by an explicit and authentic act of the whole of the People, is sacredly obligatory upon all." George Washington, Farewell Address, September 19, 1796.[/color][/indent] [/QUOTE]
