Obamacare

Sorry for the OT , but just to clarify one point

The expression "War of Northern Aggression" was coined to make the Civil War sound more like a war between two independent nations instead of an actual civil war. It always rankled the South that they were never recognized as such at home or abroad.

I know, but the point I was making is that it was coined at the time when a certain lady made a little bit of fuss about sitting at the back of a bus.
If it was truly about foreign and domestic recognition of the confederacy you would find no shortage of examples of its use prior to the 1950s .
Its a term which just erupts in 1956 during the bus boycott in Montgomery.

Sorry, this is not the Civil War thread. Clarify it in a PM.

Just found some real hope here that the "affordable healthcare act of 2010" can be delayed as long as the Congress is in charge and there is nothing the Senate or the President can do about it thanks to the Supreme Court and Justice Roberts ruling that this is a tax ...

Go ahead read it for yourselves ... no tax can't be justified except by the US Congress: http://www.examiner.com/article/obam...enate-approval
Obamacare can be defunded without Senate approval

Dr. Harold Pease, an expert on the United States Constitution, stated that the authority in dealing with Obamacare funding belongs to the U.S. House, not the U.S. Senate and that the House is doing this all wrong.

Pease went on to say, “All bills for raising revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills. To fund anything, in this case Obamacare, first approval is required by the House of Representatives.”

“If that does not happen taxpayer money cannot be spent. The people, through their representatives to Congress, have determined, after a three-year closer scrutiny of The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), that it does not protect the patient, is not affordable and is not even workable; hence in the interests of the vast majority of the people needs to be defunded.”
