Man, this is Hardcore - More Obamacare Reacts from the wingnet


Not only do some wingers hate health insurance reform, they hate almost every discretionary department, welfare and entitlement program.
The reality is that not only is Obamacare unconstitutional, almost every discretionary department, welfare program, and entitlement program is unconstitutional.  Obviously, we cannot repeal each one overnight and must deal with them prudently, but we must not buy into the notion that the prevailing view of federal power over the past 80 years is sacrosanct.  It’s not.  We get our rights from God, not from the government, and not even from the Constitution.  The Constitution grants the federal government a few enumerated powers.  We must not let the views of one unprincipled man in a black robe – or even decades’ worth of misguided court decisionsabrogate our founding documents.
This is really good stuff. 

1. Social Security, Medicare, Food stamps, etc are all unconstitutional
2. God decides who get what rights and who goes without rights. 
3. Roberts is MEAN
4. The New Deal/Modernity is MEAN
5. More misguided Originalism

Again this is really good stuff. And it is a good thing when wingers express their true feelings.  When Paul Ryan lays down the Social Darwinism, he sugarcoats it as grown up fiscal responsibility when in fact his budget is little more than a polished RedState Blog post.

I think there can be no better example of right wing counter culture than the Justice Roberts bashing. Think about it.  Here you have a guy right out of central casting for what an establishment GOP operative should look like.  However when he wouldn't ruin his reputation to go full metal wingnut and overrule health insurance reform, he is disowned. So instead of reconsidering the GOTP obstruction of health insurance reform, you find scape goats. In this instance, it is Roberts. He is the unprincipled man.

He's Probably got the hang of it by now. So give'em another chance. And with the Supreme Court and the good Lord on his side, why not give it a try. Write in Bush.
