Leave a comment All 39 of the Republicans voted that the individual mandate requiring all individuals to have health insurance was unconstitutional.

Other sponsors of this piece of legislation are Lamar Alexander (R), Mike Crapo (R), Lindsey Graham (R), and Judd Gregg (R). Section 102 in this proposed legislation outlines how the feds will punish you if you refuse to buy an insurance plan. Is this not what they just claimed was unconstitutional in the Senate health care bill.! Posted on December 26th, 2009 | Category: Healthcare Reform |

Leave a comment If ever the people of the United States rise up and fight over passage of Obamacare, Harry Reid must be remembered as the man who sacrificed the dignity of his office for a few pieces of silver.
