Supreme Court and obamacare ... thanks John & Yvette!

Subject: Supreme Court drama unfolding over ObamaCare

Grassfire Nation Update John, With the Supreme Court hearing of ObamaCare less than three weeks away, serious concerns are beginning to surface about at least one Justice and his ruling record. Fox News is reporting that at the heart of the ObamaCare hearing “is the individual mandate, which requires every Americans to have health insurance coverage or pay a penalty.” The Commerce Clause, which gives Congress exclusive power to regulate business or commercial exchanges in any and all of its forms between citizens of different states, is the basis for the government’s position that the individual mandate is constitutional. Appointed by Ronald Reagan, Justice Antonin Scalia is the longest serving Justice on the Court and a stalwart conservative. However, expert review of Scalia’s legal opinions regarding the Commerce Clause, suggests he will have a difficult time ruling against the government in ObamaCare. Elizabeth Wydra, chief counsel for the Constitutional Accountability Center told Fox News on March 5, “Even if Scalia is skeptical of the merits of the health care reform law, it will be very hard for him to get away from his own writings on this issue that do support the government.” John, while Scalia’s history is certainly a concern, it should also serve as a lightning rod for Americans to get involved in the ObamaCare debate before the Supreme Court hearings begin -- to speak up and out about the unconstitutionality of ObamaCare and the loss of freedom to make our own healthcare decisions. + + ObamaCare Hearing Just Three Weeks Away Less than three weeks from today, the Supreme Court will hear the case against ObamaCare, and we believe it is important for you to be there.
