And Obama didn't? You may not realize this, but Health Care was not Obama's big priority until the Clintons forced it on him. His bigger priorities were the wars and energy independence. Then Obama became all about Health Care.

Excuse me. Universal health care has been the dream of every Dem since the 1960s. Where do you come up with this nonsense?

I have come to the conclusion that Obama, being a former law professor, is not only NOT a defender of the Constitution, he has deliberately taken actions to weaken the Constitution. That is my red line. This guy is looking more and more like Chavez and Castro every day. Those countries had weak institutions that could be circumvented easily and quickly. This country has 200 years of history and precedent and a fiercely independent population to overcome. However, step by step down the slippery slope, Obama is weakening our most critical institutions with his attacks against the Supreme Court and our Constitution, his end run around Congress with his Presidential Directives, and his full throated support of Bernanke's monetary debasement and endless support for mafioso banksters.

Maybe its because Obama is a Constitutional professor he knows better where the real threats lie.
