Considering the overall ignorance
of most Politicians - it is not so
surprising that a good part of the
United States Government swears to
uphold and defend the Constitution
of the United States - the Supreme
Law of the Land - yet most of them
do not have a clue of what it
contains nor how it is meant to
limit the Government, not the
citizens.
Actually without any additional
surprise, this sounds extremely
familiar to the way they sign and
pass bills these days.
This not a partisan problem,
violation of the Constitution is
happening on both sides of the
fence and they like to give
themselves authority that they do
not legally possess.
In addition, they have made
themselves God's like Doctors and
Lawyers have also done in the US,
when in contrast in my country
being a computer technician or
auto mechanic is regarded as a
higher and better paid
profession.
Do not forget people, relative to
the Politicians, Doctors, and
Lawyers, there is NOTHING
special about these people, they
put their pants on the same way
that we do. Contrary to their own
belief, they are NOT Gods.
A question posed that I want to
know the answer from any of these
politicians is "where
specifically does the
Constitution grant Congress the
authority to enact an individual
health insurance mandate?"
Well for those whom do not know -
it doesn't.
As a matter of fact you can add
to their lack of authority under
the Constitution: Scamulus
Packages, Bank Bailouts, Firing
people from their jobs (GM
President), giving up or signing
treaties that encroach on US
Sovereignty, wire tapping, etc.
etc.
and once again they do not have
the authority to do any of those
things under the authority the
Constitution provides them and
therefore anything they have done
outside of their authority should
legally be null, void, illegal
and should be determined and
prosecuted as criminal.
One of the serious problems is
however, that it takes so long to
go through the courts that the
Government gets away with the
illegal activities until the
court decides, and then when it
is found they acted illegally -
in most cases they suffer no
significant punishment as they
should suffer just as the people
they serve would if they had
committed the crime. Rarely are
these people truly facing
justice, another problem that
needs to be addressed.
Now they are trying to mandate
health care with consequences of
non compliance being prison (see
article towards bottom of page
titled "Health care ALARM: You
could face 5 years in prison and
$250,000 in fines if you don't
comply") is not only not within
their authority, but absolutely
inhumane and insane.
Recently from President and going
down a long list the Government
has shown nothing but contempt
for the Constitution, Rule of
law, and the rights of the
citizens. Obviously they need
permanently replaced and possibly
We The People can mandate that
before they can hold public
office that THEY must have passed
a test on Constitutional Law and
know what their limitations are
before they can hold office -
they are the servants, not
us.
For more on this issue of the
Government having contempt for
the Law of the Land more commonly
known as the US Constitution
which they swore to uphold, see
