They have clearly forgotten that in America the power actually rest with We The People.

Prior to that it was an issue reserved to the states. <br /><br />As such, any power not specifically given to the Federal Government automatically becomes an issue for the state. <br /><br />Conservatives do not view the Constitution as a hurtle. True conservatives hold the document in high regards and many of us have a far better understanding of it and its intended purposes. <br /><br />Since you found the reporter's question so un-serious, I invite you to do a little more homework on our nation's most important document in hopes you will achieve a better understanding.<br /><br />http://www.heritage.org/about/bookstore/constitutionguide.cfmClifton Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00273941007555823028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-41176008470824365442009-10-23T23:51:53.966-04:002009-10-23T23:51:53.966-04:00Writer X:

I am also perplexed that conservatives continue to press this question, when they push Congress to pass laws banning abortion (or certain types), etc. Abortion is not listed in the enumerated powers of Congress either. But I guess conservatives view the Constitution as "a hurdle they must jump over in order to progress their agenda." <br /><br /><a href="http://dissentingjustice.blogspot.com/2009/10/pelosi-is-right-question-regarding.html" rel="nofollow">Pelosi Was Right to Dismiss Question Regarding Constitutionality of Healthcare Reform</a>Darren Lenard Hutchinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16303769200481824426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-55812134380310926672009-10-23T20:56:00.869-04:002009-10-23T20:56:00.869-04:00Nancy always repeats herself when she's befudd...Nancy always repeats herself when she's befuddled and lying.

So many things go into the "How did we get here?" question. <br /><br />The people who are 'in charge' now are narcissistic. It is up to the thinking voters to decide now to vote on principle, rather than looking for letters behind names and to motivate others to do so as well.<br /><br />It wasn't seen as a serious question because they do not see the Constitution as a serious document --only a hurdle they must jump over in order to progress their agenda.<br /><br />~Leslie~Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01186120222663489445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872610766194613385.post-44788295966160853512009-10-23T20:10:05.480-04:002009-10-23T20:10:05.480-04:00The look on her face was priceless.

I asked him why he then vote for healthcare reform when it seems that it isn't. He didn't answer. Which was a good trick since I was sitting right there.Just a conservative girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11982406297072353275noreply@blogger.com
