By now most of you know what happened yesterday with the Supreme Court and Chief Justice John Roberts. There are some major troubling issues with the ruling from SCOTUS:
1) This ruling will open the door to "back-door" mandates by calling the "mandate" a tax. While I would hope many of the true fiscal Conservatives that were elected to office in 2010 would see through the pages of Bacon Sandwich, I am not to sure about it now. I fear that when the liberals regain control of both Houses of Congress again, because we know it will happen; they will shove new "mandates" down our throats whether the American people want them or not. What is the next "mandate", we all have to drive the GM Golf Cart or we will get taxed 10% of our annual income for not driving one. Sorry Liberals, but here in Texas we love our gas-guzzling Trucks and our SUVs. There are people in this country who won't even fit in something smaller than a truck or an SUV, take me for example. I am 6'3" 300 pounds, do you honestly think I am going to fit inside something that looks like a tin can. Not going to happen!
2) SCOTUS completely ignored the lack of a severability clause. No where in the 2,500 page heath care law does it state that if one portion is found to be unconstitutional, that part shall be severed and the remaining shall live on. The ruling yesterday went around that completely. SCOTUS found 3 parts of the bill unconstitutional, so the law should be totally unconstitutional.
3) SCOTUS allowed the Obama administration lawyers to perjurer themselves and Obama during oral arguments in March. During the months following Obama's signing of the healthcare law and the filing of the lawsuits by 26 states, Obama went on many TV News shows and stated that the healthcare law in no way raises anybody's taxes. He stated this to George Stephanopoulos in an interview. George asked President Obama "What do you say to people who say that this new healthcare bill is a tax?" Obama states "George, no where in this bill are there new taxes." So why not hold Obama and his lawyers in Contempt for perjury? Both of these parties lied to the courts, if you or I lied to a court and someone had proof that we lied, we would be thrown in jail.
4) As I stated yesterday, we have come to find out that Chief Justice Roberts is not a true Conservative. In yesterday's blog I called him a CINO- Conservative in Name Only. And this is true, I was once taking my HOA to court over some roof damage, and while the judge did not rule in anybody's favor; he did however, look straight at the HOA rep and said "get the roof fixed". I say this because Chief Justice Roberts' decision on the Arizona Immigration Bill on Monday. Monday the court ruled against Arizona on all but one section of their SB 1070. Chief Justice Roberts could have easily done what the judge I had did...look at the administration and say fix the issue.
This issue is far from over. There are still ways for us true Conservatives to beat the healthcare law. One way is to vote in true fiscal conservatives in November. Get back a super-majority in both Houses of Congress and the White House, then and only then will be able to get this country back on the straight path of success. I have always stated that I feel and believe that this President was going to be a one-term, but the next person is going to have to have two terms just to undo what this guy did.
