Is Healthcare a Right or Commerce?

March 22, 2010 Leave a comment

Last night I watched 218 people ruin the lives or at least negatively impact the lives of millions of people.  Even a number of the 31 million they swore this was to help.  What was shocking  was the two left views of the vote.  One the one hand we have the most incompetent person to ever hold leadership in this country, Nancy Pelosi, telling us that this death of thousands of people (or least an industry) it is an inalienable right.  Now for all of you who are new to the Constitution, Inalienable Rights are those give to you by God.  Not Man.  Once again the stupid convince the stupid.  But hold on.

Then on at least two occasion I heard commentary that you can easily place Government-run health care under the commerce clause.  Excuse me?  The commerce clause (which for all of you that don’t know was put in so that the colonies or the young states would not shut out other states monetarily when we were establishing the new country.  That is the simple explanation for brevity purposes).  Is it a right or is it commerce?  I know some of you are saying why does it matter?  It matters because if  218  people voted on it because it is a right then when they deny any American treatment with their IRS death panels, you can say it is a violation of you right as an American citizen.

If it is commerce, and libs I will use a word most Conservatives have used for a better part of a year as a synonym, a service, then the IRS can deny you that service because it is not available.  Once again these Democrats have put both pieces of information out there so it can be used in arguments and divide the country.  And when I re-read Commerce clause, the word Healthcare does not appear anywhere in it.  Maybe Geraldo Rivera is smarter than me, but when you contort the 234 language that much, I guess it makes you look smart.  Because you can see what no other consitutional scholar I have spoken to or listened to has seen.  Geraldo, welcome to indoctrination, and thanks for proving that Fox News IS Fair and Balanced.

So when the death panels come, pray you are on them.  So you can defend yourself.  And when it comes to your life and the denial of treatment don’t forget, that in front of God and everyone on March 21st 2010 this Government told you: “YOU have a RIGHT to Healthcare.
