Justices join assault on U.S. Constitution
When President Barack Obama at his inauguration swore upon his word to the "best of my ability to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States," he should have included, "except when I want to ignore it" ("Reform moves ahead," June...Tags: Health Insurance, U.S. Senate, Health Care Reform (2009), Phil Hare, George Washington

How long 'til liberals start pining for the good old days of George W. Bush?
