Rep James White Files Constitutional Amendment Bill to Invalidate Obama Healthcare Individual Mandate in Texas

There have already been several great bills filed for consideration in the 2013 Texas Legislature. These great bills range from protecting unborn babies after 20 weeks because they can feel pain, to allowing Texas to be one of the over 40 other states who allow open carry of handguns.

You can now add my East Texas State Rep. James White to the list of people who have filed awesome conservative bills for the upcoming 2013 Texas Legislative Session.

Super Conservative Texas State Representative James White has filed a bill to constitutionally protect Texas residents from Obama's healthcare individual mandate.   Read more »

Why Obamacare needs to be Repealed!

A few years ago, I listen to a speech on health care where a speaker shocked the audience when he told them that the number of Canadians who are not covered by health insurance in their country would be the equivalent of 15 to 20 million Americans. Studies by MIT, the Cato Institute and the CBO have supported these numbers; so how do we declare health care a right when at minimal 5 to 10% of Americans would not see the benefit of the law on any given day?   Read more »

Pelosi: ObamaCare’s “Best Is Yet to Come”?

The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) is a political committee devoted to maintaining and increasing the 239-member Republican majority in the U.S. House of Representatives.

The Supreme Court decision upholding ObamaCare prompted immediate celebrations from top Democrats, who insisted ObamaCare’s “best is yet to come”:

“PELOSI ON OBAMCARE: ‘THE BEST IS YET TO COME’”: (“Pelosi on ObamaCare: ‘The Best is Yet to Come,’” Real Clear Politics, 6/29/2012)   Read more »

Will Supreme Court Decision Unite America?

“…we place Liberty at Peril.”
Dissenting Justices Scalia, Thomas, Kennedy, Alito
"Excessive taxation ... will carry reason and reflection to every man's door, and particularly in the hour of election."
Thomas Jefferson, letter to John Taylor, 1798

SCOTUS

How the Justices Ruled on Health Care last week was a sad day for people who understand that the Affordable Health Care Act is not good for America. We were not only catapulted into Socialism but we lost any hope for justice from our Supreme Court. Justice Roberts washed his hands in front of the American people much like Pontius Pilate.

Thoughts And Concerns On The Supreme Court Decision On ObamaCare

I want to focus on three general areas of expression and argument in Thursday’s decision upholding the constitutionality of the typically misnamed, “Patient Protection And Affordable Care Act” (referred to as Obamacare). My main thoughts of my mistaken prediction about Justice Kennedy, my perplexity at Justice Roberts’ vote and argument, and my discomfort with some of the Republican discussion:

1) First of all, I have been saying for many months that this most momentous case for the nation would be decided by one man, with four lining up on each side and the seemingly ambiguous and somewhat unpredictable Anthony Kennedy

Thoughts And Concerns On The Supreme Court Decision On ObamaCare

Justice John RobertsObamacare passed its constitutional test as Chief Justice John Roberts punted. Roberts was left with a dilemma, does he overturn an important Congressional imperative by the narrowest of margins?

This would have put the Court at war with the executive, an executive branch ready to do a search and destroy against the Court. In a war that would have resembled Roosevelt's war on the Court in the mid 1930’s, Roberts feared for the reputation of the Court, but on the other hand, there was no doubt that the mandate was unconstitutional and a complete misreading of the commerce clause.   Read more »
