Since the President and the Democrats kicked off the healthcare debate in early 2009 the political left and the establishment media have sneered dismissively at those of us who insisted the Constitution did not authorize Congress or the Executive to assume the new powers in ObamaCare. We won’t know for sure until June, but based [...]

From the very beginning, the ObamaCare arguments before the Supreme Court were a lesson in the folly of ignoring the wisdom of our Constitution, a charter for a government with just a few, limited, enumerated powers.  Solicitor General Verrilli, whose unenviable assignment was to defend ObamaCare opened things up: “The Affordable Care Act addresses a [...]

Last week, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments on the Constitutionality of the ObamaCare individual mandate.  It’s almost impossible to exaggerate the significance of this case to the future of liberty in America. If the Court upholds ObamaCare it will have struck down America’s most fundamental, founding principle, that the power of government must be [...]

After the 9-11 terrorist attacks Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu famously said: I am certain that I speak on behalf of my entire nation when I say: September 11th we are all Americans – in grief, as in defiance. The Administration recently announced an ObamaCare commandment that every health plan, paid for by every employer, [...]

First of a Three Part Series The political-media establishment often cites Medicare as a “popular” example of the benefits of activist government, unrestrained by Constitutional limits.  But in a rational world Medicare would be seen as a monument to progressive myths, deceptions and failures. In 1965 President Lyndon Johnson traveled to the Missouri home of [...]

Millions of citizens in the tea party movement have begun to demand that Congress obey the Constitution.  This week a federal court gave them much needed validation. Back in October, 2009 in the midst of frenzied, back-room deal-making to cobble together bare majorities in the House and Senate to enact ObamaCare House Speaker Nancy Pelosi [...]

The health care debate begins again with legislation to repeal ObamaCare.  This Debate will not be settled until politicians from both parties confront the truth. What if a bunch of politicians tried to make themselves look extraordinarily clever and more compassionate than the rest of us by claiming that health care was “a right” and [...]

Decades of sad experience proves that economic predictions from government officials and Economists almost never turn out to be accurate. Yet the political-media establishment continues to be driven by politically motivated, economic predictions.  Specious predictions are presented to the public as if they were knowable, proven facts.  The campaign for ObamaCare was a tsunami of [...]

The Constitution once served as a firewall between us and those who would harness government power to control our lives. But the progressives believe an elite few can make us better through massive bureaucratic control.  With a single word, “effect,” progressives empowered themselves to defy Constitutional limits on government power.  They now claim their power [...]

We all remember Barack Obama’s early selling points for government supervised health care.  It was all about “helping” the unfortunate folks who were supposedly excluded from health care because they didn’t have an opportunity or the means to acquire health insurance. Well, the Democrats don’t see them as victims any longer.  Now they’re seen as [...]
