If you're a liberal, the Constitution is your Kryptonite. It protects everything you despise and the limitations it imposes on the federal government are a serious thorn in the side of your impossible, unsustainable, socialist utopia. You think its guarantees are grossly outdated, existing only to hamper your ability to enlighten a nation full of gun-worshipping dullards. To be blunt, the republic it establishes represents everything you seek to undo.
Maybe that's why ethically-challenged Democrat Rep. Charlie Rangel thinks "Health care is the most exciting thing that’s happened for the United States of America since the republic began."
Note that the most exciting thing for the republic was not the moon landing. It wasn't the defeat of Adolph Hitler, and it wasn't Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation. For the far left, ObamaCare is the be-all and end-all because it represents the first glorious step toward their Marxist fever dream.
Since ObamaCare tramples the concepts of individual liberty and states’ rights, it's a major win for their side. It's a bit like saying a stake through the heart is the "most exciting thing" to happen to Dracula.
Sure, the ACA is poorly conceived, deeply unpopular, and falling apart as we speak, but when you've come this close to attaining your ultimate weapon, it's hard to contain your glee. We'll see if they're still so excited in November.
Charlie appears below. Don't lend him any money, and be sure to "like" Robert Laurie over on Facebook and follow him on Twitter. You'll be glad you did.
