Reflections From a Murky Pond

One thing that Obama has going with him in the war over the constitutionality of his “signature achievement,” Obamacare is his Mini-Me in the ranks of the SCOTUS justices, Elena Kagan.

What Does That Spell? Tyranny! Yay!

Kagan is a shameless supporter of ObamaCare and nobody with an iota of rational thought thinks that Obama’s pet cheerleader and former attack dog – i.e, Solicitor General – will be impartial in the upcoming court case.

America’s domestic enemies, the Liberals and Progressives, will claim that Kagan’s impartiality will be offset by that of Justice Clarence Thomas and, in this particular instance, their ranting are not wholly without merit, though they – the one’s who keeping screeching about “The Patrimony” – are drawing a false equivalency between Kagan’s actual prior support of Obamacare and Justice Thomas’ wife’s employment.

One will notice though, if one bothers to look, that our domestic enemies never deny that Kagan is “in the tank” and a currently living defilement of the office she’s been given.

It is the nature of governments to make laws in order to criminalize the citizenry’s actions or, possibly coming soon, inactions. This is how the government maintains and expands its power.

New Crime – Failure To Purchase Health Insurance

Very shortly the US Supreme Court will begin deciding whether or not the Obama Regime will be allowed to make not purchasing a product or service, government-approved health insurance in this case, a federal crime punishable by hefty fines and, if those fines are not paid, by wage garnishment, seizure of assets, and/or incarceration under the existing federal tax evasion laws.

ObamaCare also includes a provision for adding 16,000 additional federal agents to enforce this new criminalization of personal choice and individual liberty, so the Obama Regime and the Liberals in Congress are obviously placing a high value upon enforcing this tyranny.

Hopefully, the SCOTUS will strike down this law as unconstitutional. Their doing so will alleviate the existential need for Americans to exercise the Gods-given 2nd Amendment rights to strike down the tyrants and their enforcers who, by providing material aid and comfort to the enemy, willfully violated their oaths of allegiance to America and made themselves valid targets in war.

Keep your eyes open. Travel light but load heavy, and always put another round in the enemy after they’re down.

As has become almost commonplace and as was foreshadowed by his stated reasons for his refusal to dismiss all portions of Florida v. US Dept. of Health and Human Services, Senior United States District Judge, Roger Vinson ruled that the Individual Mandate that ObamaCare is predicated upon to be unconstitutional.

This causes the entire law to be made void since it lacks a severability clause.

Simply put, the Liberals who attempted to rule Congress and our nation did not add a Severability Clause to ObamaCare and, therefor the Individual Mandate cannot legally be stripped from the Act.  An example of such a clause is shown below:

If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal, unenforceable or in conflict with the law of any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

During at least some of the many iterations of the Bill there was a severability clause included in it. It did not, however, survive to the final draft which was eventually signed into law. Nor could it or should it have, if basic common sense were to prevail, been included in the law.

The Individual Mandate was first and primary among a plethora of rules and codicils with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 that were inextricably bound to the whole of the Act and absolutely vital to its function and were “novel,” “unprecedented,” and legally and constitutionally questionable. Without it the entire Act will implode upon itself because its entire funding and actuarial model would be gutted.

So ObamaCare is now void where prohibited, which is currently on in Florida. That will change when the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals hears the case and/or when it goes before the US Supreme Court.

States represented in Florida v. US Dept. of Health and Human Services lawsuit were:

Additionally, Oklahoma and Virginia have also filed independent lawsuits against Obamacare. That brings the number of states that have brought suit against the Obama Regime over all or parts of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010.
