Below I reprint Charles Krauthammer's critically important new column about ObamaCare, which goes before the Supreme Court on Monday. The link is: http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/obamacare-the-reckoning/2012/03/22/gIQALF1QUS_story.html
Obamacare: The reckoning
By Charles Krauthammer, Published: March 22 The Washington Post
Obamacare dominated the 2010 midterms, driving its Democratic authors to a historic electoral shellacking. But since then, the issue has slipped quietly underground.
Now it's back, summoned to the national stage by the confluence of three disparate events: the release of new Congressional Budget Office cost estimates, the approach of Supreme Court hearings on the law's constitutionality and the issuance of a compulsory contraception mandate.
Cost:
Obamacare was carefully constructed to manipulate the standard 10-year cost projections of the CBO. Because benefits would not fully kick in for four years, President Obama could trumpet 10-year gross costs of less than $1 trillion - $938 billion to be exact.
But now that the near-costless years 2010 and 2011 have elapsed, the true 10-year price tag comes into focus. From 2013 through 2022, the CBO reports, the costs of Obamacare come to $1.76 trillion - almost twice the phony original number.
It gets worse. Annual gross costs after 2021 are more than a quarter of $1 trillion every year - until the end of time. That, for a new entitlement in a country already drowning in $16 trillion of debt.
Constitutionality:
Beginning Monday, the Supreme Court will hear challenges to the law. The American people, by an astonishing two-thirds majority, want the law and/or the individual mandate tossed out by the court. In practice, however, questions this momentous are generally decided 5 to 4 - i.e., they depend on whatever side of the bed Justice Anthony Kennedy gets out of that morning.
Ultimately, the question will hinge on whether the Commerce Clause has any limits. If the federal government can compel a private citizen, under threat of a federally imposed penalty, to engage in a private contract with a private entity (to buy health insurance), is there anything the federal government cannot compel the citizen to do?
If Obamacare is upheld, it fundamentally changes the nature of the American social contract. It means the effective end of a government of enumerated powers - i.e., finite, delineated powers beyond which the government may not go, beyond which lies the free realm of the people and their voluntary institutions. The new post-Obamacare dispensation is a central government of unlimited power from which citizen and civil society struggle to carve out and maintain spheres of autonomy.
Figure becomes ground; ground becomes figure. The stakes could not be higher.
Coerciveness.
Serendipitously, the recently issued regulation on contraceptive coverage has allowed us to see exactly how this new power works. All institutions - excepting only churches, but not excepting church-run charities, hospitals, etc. - will be required to offer health care that must include free contraception, sterilization and drugs that cause abortion.
Consider the cascade of arbitrary bureaucratic decisions that resulted in this edict:
(1) Contraception, sterilization and abortion pills are classified as medical prevention. On whose authority? The secretary of health and human services, invoking the Institute of Medicine. But surely categorizing pregnancy as a disease equivalent is a value decision disguised as science. If contraception is prevention, what are fertility clinics? Disease inducers? And if contraception is prevention because it lessens morbidity and saves money, by that logic, mass sterilization would be the greatest boon to public health since the pasteurization of milk.
(2) This type of prevention is free - no co-pay. Why? Is contraception morally superior to or more socially vital than - and thus more of a "right" than - penicillin for a child with pneumonia?
(3) "Religious" exemptions to this edict extend only to churches, places where the faithful worship God, and not to church-run hospitals and charities, places where the faithful do God's work. Who promulgated this definition, so stunningly ignorant of the very idea of religious vocation? The almighty HHS secretary.
Today, it's the Catholic Church whose free-exercise powers are under assault from this cascade of diktats sanctioned by - indeed required by - Obamacare.
Tomorrow it will be the turn of other institutions of civil society that dare stand between unfettered state and atomized citizen.
Rarely has one law so exemplified the worst of the Leviathan state - grotesque cost, questionable constitutionality and arbitrary bureaucratic coerciveness. Little wonder the president barely mentioned it in his latest State of the Union address. He wants to be reelected. He'd rather talk about other things.
But there's no escaping it now. Oral arguments begin Monday at 10 a.m.
Only one who mentioned the soldier killing those 17 civilians was me. UGGIE said that some things should NOT be mentioned.
The Nazis on Youtube told me the SAME thing concerning Nazi war crimes.

Re the troll parasites: I had an apercu (as the French call it) about these degenerates. Original? Not sure. Here it is.
The standard analysis of psychopaths indicates that they have no sense of shame. That, of course, describes Creepy and Stinky.
But now I discovered that even among these mutants, there might be a tiny, tiny bit of shame: They won't admit that they are shameless. Why?
They're ashamed to admit that they have no shame.

Creepy won't tell us how he manages not to disgust himself. But what about his poor mother? Or is that why his (sic) life is dedicated to being disgusting?
Science would like to know. Degenerates don't just happen. There is always a back story.
If only Creepy would tell his, instead of droning and boring endlessly with talking point camouflage for his real story.

Yo DJ,
As you know, I've tried to warn the Goopers about their Fatal Attraction to Willard. I've pointed out, repeatedly, how this will greatly weaken, if not destroy altogether, one of the most effective clubs the GOP can use against the Obamanation. Of course, who will listen to a gringoVision on a website which a Republican Princess allows to be spammed 24/7 by trolling psychopaths from Progistan?
We get it. The fix is in. However, it's moving ever faster. The following shows how Libworld can't even wait for the nomination of Willard before they unmask the phony. They seem to be saying: "Why wait? Let's start depressing and suppressing the GOP electorate now!" Can you blame the Marxelrods?
//////NY TIMES/////GOP presidential front-runner Mitt Romney was so close a partner with the liberal late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy in the crafting of Massachusetts' sweeping healthcare law that he frequently referred to Kennedy as “my collaborator and friend.”
Now, of course, Romney is depicting himself as a “severe conservative” and doing everything he can to distance himself from the law that was the basis for Obamacare — the president’s signature healthcare law, The New York Times points out in an extensive article Sunday on the relationship.

HOW TO SPOT WHITE LIB RACIST TROLLS
Creepy is classic. Spends his miserable parasite existence here selecting white on black incidents. When the rational point out the overwhelming incidence of blacks being killed, raped and maimed by other blacks, and the epidemic of black violence, the little white psychopath drones, "You're a racist for pointing out the facts."
Troll degenerates. They apparently do not disgust themselves.
Question: why is the only site that does not Insta-flush such 24/7 vermin a GOP-oriented site?
Can anybody explain?

"Princess is thoroughly involved with the G.O.P, and she talks a good conservative game. At the same time, she allows the most vile troll psychopaths to hijack her website. Nobody has been able to name another website that puts up with such troll trash. We know what the GOP is suposed to be about and we know what Monica is supposed to be about. And then we get a glimpse of the Freak Show at Monicamemo, an unofficial GOP site, where obvious psychopaths rant day and night relentlessly about their "free speech rights", exactly like lunatics in an asylum. And they get away with it. And some make excuses for it, like they do for Goopers in general." - SatanGringoman
Monica Crowley is wisely and slowly positioning herself into the future of the GOP, while you insufferable white supremacist dinosaurs do everything in your power to hasten your extinction.
That's the simple difference. Monica Crowley knows and understands fully that the left and left center is the unavoidable future of America, and she wants to be a part of the future opposition to that move.

Ummah, This is not just a troll degenerate problem. What about the GOP? This site is being clearly soiled and hijacked and disrupted by 24/7 psychopaths, exactly the type who rant about their "free speech rights" in a lunatic asylum. I took the time and trouble to analyze this carefully, in detail and I believe irrefutably in many posts. These are on record.
This site is also clearly GOP-oriented. The owner is deeply involved with the GOP. Monica makes crystal clear, repeatedly, her GOP bonafides and associations. Nobody disputes that. She is without doubt a Republican Princess.
Ergo, how is this not also a GOP problem? How does one absolve the GOP from any involvement? This is not about some obscure "conservative" website. Monica is in effect a "public figure." In many ways, she is a GOP representative. How, then, does Monicamemo not reflect on the GOP---for better, or not for better?

Think of all the females that could have been arrested when a male did it.

If George Zimmerman [a Mestizo] is now being reffered to as a "white" Hispanic by the "anti-racists" in the MSM, then by applying those same standards, shouldn't Obama [a mullato] be reffered to as a white African American? Too absurd? Nothing is too absurd or vile or criminal for the "anti-racists" to engage in if it advances their agenda. (Of course the word white is implicitly meant to convey a pejorative when describing George Zimmerman as a "white" Hispanic.)
Let's define our terms:
Mestizo: : a person of mixed blood; specifically: a person of mixed European and American Indian ancestry
Mulatto: the offspring of one white parent and one black parent.
Anti-racist: a code word for anti-white.

That is the Achilles Heel of modern democracy, removed from the old town forum. The "public" is forced to rely on low-information emotional or gut instinct---occasionally for better, often for worse.

Gringoman,
Ecuses, excuses!
Come election time, what matters is the mindset of the voters. We can safely assume at least 45% of the voters will vote Democrat no matter what. On the other hand, the Republican base is somewhere around 30%. It's those other 25% where the battle is fought. But, alas, > 60% of those 25% lean left. Given those variables, is it a smarter strategy to appeal to moderates? Or go for broke and run as a fire breathing conservative in hopes it will ignite a wellspring of dormant conservative voters? The gamble is that no one really knows for certain if there even IS a wellspring of dormant conservative voters. Is it a gamble worth talking? Or are people like Rove and Krauthammer right by advising the G.O.P's chances for wining the general would be to go the pragmatic/moderate route?
