Obama disobeys the law of the land
Eagle Forum – Phyllis Schlafly – 10/9/2013
The Democrats are chanting that Republicans must fully fund
Obamacare because it is the law of the land, passed by Congress, signed by the
President, and upheld by the Supreme Court. Therefore, they say, it must be
obeyed and can’t be altered by Republicans who want to defund it.
That argument is both wrong and hypocritical. Any federal
law can be changed, repealed, amended or defunded by our legislative branch of
government, Congress.
The Republican House wants to deal with the controversial
huge “continuing resolution” bill in separate pieces, giving the OK to
worthwhile federal spending purposes while leaving others (like Obamacare)
without funds. Obama refuses to negotiate and demands a “clean” (blank-check)
bill; his position is all-or-nothing-at-all.
Actually, the Supreme Court decision did not give a “clean”
upholding of Obamacare. The Court effectively rewrote the law by allowing
states to opt out of Medicaid expansion, and other pieces of Obamacare are
still being litigated in federal courts, such as the mandate that
employer-required insurance must include objectionable abortifacient drugs.
The list is long - continue reading at the link above.
