The Truth about the Healthcare Bill By Someone Who Actually Read It
by Well, I have done it! I have read the entire text of proposed House Bill 3200: The Affordable Health Care Choices Act of 2009. I studied it with particular emphasis from my area of expertise, constitutional law. I was frankly concerned that parts of the proposed law that were being discussed might be unconstitutional. What I found was far worse than what I had heard or expected.
To begin with, much of what has been said about the law and its implications is in fact true, despite what the Democrats and the media are saying. The law does provide for rationing of health care, particularly where senior citizens and other classes of citizens are involved, free health care for illegal immigrants, free abortion services, and probably forced participation in abortions by members of the medical profession.
The Bill will also eventually force private insurance companies out of business, and put everyone into a government run system. All decisions about personal health care will ultimately be made by federal bureaucrats, and most of them will not be healthcare professionals. Hospital admissions, payments to physicians, and allocations of necessary medical devices will be strictly controlled by the government.
However, as scary as all of that is, it just scratches the surface. In fact, I have concluded that this legislation really has no intention of providing affordable healthcare choices. Instead it is a convenient cover for the most massive transfer of power to the Executive Branch of government that has ever occurred, or even been contemplated. If this law or a similar one is adopted, major portions of the Constitution of the United States will effectively have been destroyed.
The first thing to go will be the masterfully crafted balance of power between the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches of the U.S. Government. The Congress will be transferring to the Obama Administration [and later bureaucratic agencies] authority in a number of areas over the lives of the American people, and the businesses they own and operate.
The irony is that the Congress doesn’t have any authority to legislate in most of those areas to begin with! I defy anyone to read the text of the U.S. Constitution and find any authority granted to the members of Congress to regulate healthcare.
If you decide not to have healthcare insurance, or if you have private insurance that is not deemed acceptable to the Health Choices Administrator appointed by Obama, there will be a tax imposed on you. It is called a tax instead of a fine because of the intent to avoid application of the due process clause of the 5th Amendment. However, that doesn’t work since there is nothing in the law that allows you to contest or appeal the imposition of the tax which definitely deprives someone of property without the due process of law.
So, there are three of those pesky amendments that the far left hates so much, out the original ten in the Bill of Rights, that are effectively nullified by this law. It doesn’t stop there.
The 9th Amendment provides: “The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.”
The 10th Amendment offers additional protections: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are preserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”
Under the provisions of this piece of Congressional handiwork called “Healthcare,” neither the people nor the states are going to have any rights or powers in many areas that once were theirs to control.
I could write many more pages about this legislation, but I think you get the idea. This is not about healthcare; it is about seizing power and limiting rights.
Article 6 of the Constitution requires the members of both houses of Congress to “be bound by oath or affirmation to support the Constitution.” If I was a member of Congress, I would not be able to vote for this legislation or anything like it, without feeling I was violating that sacred oath or affirmation. If I voted for it anyway, I would hope the American people would hold me accountable.
For those who might doubt the nature of this threat, I suggest you consult the source, the US Constitution and its attendant Bill of Rights. There you can see exactly what we are about to have taken from us.

Man in the women's room?
Should a man be allowed to use women's only restrooms?
You and I both know the answer: Of course not!
But Obama's Department of Justice has just ordered a college to allow exactly that.
You see, they have decided a sexually disturbed man -- who goes by "Jennifer" Braly -- has the right to use any women's restroom on the campus of Arkansas University.
All because he has declared himself to be a woman.
Jennifer Braly -- who used to be Russell Braly -- is a fully biological male.
He is in his late 30s, twice married, and a father. But a few years ago, he decided to pretend to be a woman in public.

And now he believes he is entitled to special rights because of his sexual perversion.
Using the "protected class" created by the Homose xual Lobby, Mr. Braly has been pushing the envelope of social conventions to see what he can get away with.
He started by illegally using women's bathrooms in disguise -- for more than a year!
But Mr. Braly wasn't satisfied with this arrangement. He wanted people to know that he was a man acting like a woman, so he made of point of spreading his story all over campus.
Instead of condemnation, his professors praised him and the school administrators did not try to stop him.
However the women of this school were outraged to realize the person next to them in the bathroom was actually a man.
Since Mr. Braly refused to use the men's room, the University of Arkansas catered to his demands for restroom privileges by creating special gender-neutral facilities.
But "Jennifer" Braly wasn't getting what he really wanted, so he went directly to the U.S. Department of Justice.
There he claimed his access to women's bathroom were a protected civil right!
And Obama's Justice Department (DOJ) agreed with him and ordered the University of Arkansas to comply -- or else.
So far the DOJ has refused to release the contents of the legal threat they levied at the University of Arkansas, but it terrified the school so badly they immediately surrendered.
And now this middle aged man -- whom reports indicate is still interested in women -- can use any bathroom he likes without consequences.
My friend, this is an outrage.
This is just the latest immoral action taken by Attorney General Eric Holder.
Only a few weeks ago Public Advocate called for him to open investigations into a major homose xual child tracking ring -- a crime his department has been ignoring for months.
And instead, we get a cross-dressing pervert in the ladies room.
I need you to call Mr. Holder's office right now and demand that the Department of Justice withdraw its support of Jennifer Braly and reaffirm the rights of women to privacy.
Office of the Attorney General: (202) 514-2001
Let him know that Americans still believe in traditional morality and rules.
For the Family,
Eugene Delgaudio
President, Public Advocate of the United States
