Obamacare is Running Out of Gas
The money quote from this column is this...
There’s more on the line in this challenge than the fate of Obamacare, as if that wasn’t enough. The legitimacy of American government hangs in the balance. If the people who draft laws can lie shamelessly about them, then rewrite the laws on the fly after they have been signed, in the interests of political expediency, we don’t have a constitutional government at all, and neither Obamacare nor any other bill signed in Washington is really a “law.”
This means that any law can and will be modified to suit the intentions of anyone in power at any time. That is not a constitutional republic that we are supposed to have. No matter what law, or how good that law is, we cannot allow this president, or future presidents of either party, to simply rewrite laws as they see fit.
