Judges, NFL and NASCAR

In a court case of pitting several of the states against P-Bocare, Judge George Steeh ruled against the states, finding that the individual mandate contained in P-BOcare did not exceed the federal government’s authority under the Constitution’s commerce clause. OK now you understand why reversing P-BOcare will take more than a single election.


The government expansion clause, oh sorry, the catch-all commerce clause for expanding the reach and power of the federal government has raised its ugly head again. This signals that the ultimate destination for P-BOcare is the US Supreme Court, where 9 unelected unaccountable dopes in robes will decide the near-term future P-BOcare.

The long-term solution is to vote P-BO back to a village somewhere in need of community organizer and repeal the entire thing. Then the congress needs to look at the judicial branch.

The 9th Circus needs to be broken up into at least two courts, and at some point congress needs to impeach one or two of the most out-of-step tenured for life Bozos. This will send a shockwave throughout the courts reminding them that while the judiciary is a co-equal branch of government, it is the least accountable to the people.

Logic tells us that what an entity is empowered to create, that entity has the same power to regulate and destroy. The “inferior” federal courts are established by congress. As the most accountable branch of government, congress then by reason has the power to shut the “inferior courts” down or re-district them as needs direct.

Until congress re-establishes its authority to “constitute Tribunals inferior to the supreme Court” and regulate the same, there really is no check or balance on the courts

OK that’s the important stuff. Now for this;

I was watching the NFL this week and saw all of the pink crap the players were wearing in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. OK a great cause I suppose, but the Center for Disease Control notes that heart disease is the #1 killer of Americans. Even among cancer deaths, breast cancer falls way behind lung cancer. So why is breast cancer the cause celeb for the NFL? Shouldn’t they be wearing a ribbon and color for heart disease which afflicts all Americans? Or if they want to zero in on cancer, they should be targeting lung cancer which is the biggest killer among the cancers (pancreatic and genital cancers are also bigger killers than breast cancer).

But breast cancer it is. Why? Hmm, some PC disease control here perhaps?

Next up in the sports world, tired of seeing pink NFL players, I switched over to NASCAR which has been ruined by the car to tomorrow which has essentially turned NASCAR from stock car racing into an enhanced IROC series. Then they let Toyota in into the series. Note to NASCAR: it’s OK to promote American car manufacturers. Now in a further attempt to ruin the sport, NASCAR is promoting its “Drive to Diversity.” The slogan is, “NASCAR, where the only thing that matters is who crosses the finish line first.” Well if that’s truly the case, why would you need a “drive to diversity?” It’s obviously a recruitment for minos. So why not just have your slogan, “NASCAR, we’re tired of being too white for libs?” I’m about done with this sport.

First off, these days it’s a good race for Earnhardt when he doesn’t hit the wall, finishes in the top 25 and manages to stay on the lead lap. Even that low standard is an all too rare of an occurrence for the #88 lately. Then there are the car issues. Now this drive for diversity. I’m sick of having the crap shoved in my face. If all that matters is who crosses the finish line first leave it alone and pay the guy or gal the money and as Olberdouche might say shut the hell up. Actions not words, you know. Besides has anyone with one lousy win (on a Japanese track where there were no practice laps) gotten more undeserved publicity than Danica Patrick?

Well there you have it a tutorial on the judicial branch, the NFL and NASCAR all rolled into one. Where else do get this stuff?
