I'm not talking about spelling but your lazy habit of constantly using cheats like "prob" and "esp". If you can't be bothered to write out a simple word, is your thinking any clearer?

How is the mandate unconstitutional? Two words: Commerce Clause. Simply put, the mandate is unconstitutional because the FEDERAL government does not have the power under said clause to force you or I to purchase anything aka engage in commerce.
You might want to rethink that. The Commerce Clause specifically refers to trade with foreign powers, and has nothing to do with internal commerce at all, nor does it address forcing individuals to puchase anything.

You'd probably be better off going with the 10th Amendment. If the Constitution doesn't address healthcare, the Congress has no business getting involved in it.

Simple but very valid argument.Obama and the Left knows this but they are Lefties and have no respect for the Constitution because it stands in their way since it was designed to prevent what they want, a large, powerful Federal government with unlimited powers to solve our problems, well mostly.
Every time you use terms like "Lefties", "Libs" and "Dems" you give the lie to any claims you make concerning lack of bias, and show yourself to be a hardcore, knee-jerk "Rightie", with no pretense of independent thought at all. You probably are better than that, but you never even try to show it.

Insulting? Maybe. Rude? Sure. True? Apparently. Only you can change that, and you don't seem interested in trying.
