Wild Thing’s comment…….
Nothing in the United States Constitution empowers the Federal Government to become as involved in people lives as this bill would enable to happen. These mostly lawyers should ALL know that! The left has succeeded in dumbing down the populace to the point that such a Constitutional argument might as well be spoken in Martian.
And the left DISDAINS the concept of the Constitution – limiting their ability to meddle in people’s lives.
Like ElRushboo said, this is a psyops campaign straight form the Obama himself. Plant news stories of it’s inevitability, how there is a tidal wave coming, how day after day votes are swinging his way. This is the crown jewel of socialism and the 5th colum and the statists know the stakes are this high. We have some Democrats who are having honey poured in their ears and being fed lies by the Whorehouse and the leadership and it’s our job to “Shake them the hell out of it.”;. Don’t believe the news folks until the votes are cast, keep fighting, the MSM lies.
