Editor,

As I listen to the Supreme Court Justices discuss Obamacare, and I hear the liberal/anti-constitution crowd malign their good name and standing, I grieve. These justices, who are one of the branches that enjoy and enforce a separation of power, are essential to our freedom and to make sure our liberties are intact. Even Obama, who hates the Constitution worse than anyone, has tried to intimidate and threaten the justices by telling them they have no right to question or strike down a bill or law that was rammed through Congress and signed by him. How dare he and any of you that support this upstart? Their job is to precisely do that. If the justices had been on the ball, they would have never allowed the bill to be passed in the first place. More than that, if the so-called lawmakers of our country knew and understood and respected the Constitution, they would have never even conceived of such a thing.

Obama just recently made the remarks that he wishes the Congress would grant him more power so he could move things along quicker without restraint. This usurper and pretender has the utmost abhorrence for our beloved and divinely inspired Constitution.

What is getting out of hand is the impression that if you are a conservative and a Christian, you do not care about people. We care and share concern. But we also know that the government does not have the right to spend money for charity, which is what Obamacare is. It is involuntarily taking taxes from those that have and redistributing the wealth. It seeks to force citizens to have to pay for something that they have the right to not have to purchase if they do not want to. Anyone that knows the Constitution and the intent of the founders knows that the commerce clauses and the general welfare mentioned in the Bill of Rights has nothing to do with the government footing the bill and paying for everyone’s needs and wants in the country. Part of the beauty of liberty and freedom is that a person has the right to succeed and the right to fail on their own. “The Sword of the Lord and Gideon.”
