In his ruling US District Judge Roger Vinson wrote, "Because the individual mandate is unconstitutional and not severable, the entire act must be declared void."
He goes on to make reference to the Boston Tea Party:
He goes on to make reference to the Boston Tea Party:
'It's difficult to imagine that a nation which began, at least in part, as the result of opposition to a British mandate giving the East India Company a monopoly and imposing a nominal tax on all tea sold in America would have set out to create a government with the power to force people to buy tea in the first place. If Congress can penalize a passive individual for failing to engage in commerce, the enumeration of powers in the Constitution would have been in vain for it would be 'difficult to perceive any limitation on federal power' [Lopez, supra, 514 U.S. at 564],
and we would have a Constitution in name only."
Did you get that?
In essence, Federal Judge Vinson said that Obamacare is worse than the mandates imposed by King George that caused us to rebel and led to our breaking free from those chains to become a free and sovereign nation. And this man, Obama, or whatever his real name is, would place heavier chains upon us in the name of what he calls "Liberalism," or "Progress." Mind you, Obama purportedly taught Constitutional Law.
America, where is our Spirit of Freedom?
