Dick Durbin says that Barack Obama should implement healthcare reform even though it has been ruled unconstitutional

  Providing us with a glowing example of the disdain and the contempt with which liberals hold the restrictive power of the constitution, Dick Durbin went on the record as stating that the president should continue to implement the healthcare reform law even though it has been ruled unconstitutional.

   Many of us on the right have made the argument that liberals feel as if the end justifies the means and that because of this they are willing to ignore the constitution and even court rulings if it means implementing laws which they feel are in our best interests even if those laws do not meet the criteria outlined in the constitution, and the fact that Dick Durbin has gone on record as stating the president should ignore the Florida court ruling is proof of this position.

When he was asked if Barack Obama and his regime should stop implementing the healthcare reform law now that is has been deemed unconstitutional, this is what Dick Durbin had to say:

CNSNews.com asked Durbin on Wednesday whether he thinks the Obama administration should stop implementing the health care law.Durbin, a member of the Judiciary Committee, said, “Personally, I don’t, because the judge was asked for an injunction, and he didn’t rule that there would be one. So he hasn’t enjoined any conduct or activity. At this point, we have 16 courts that have considered this case.

“Twelve of them have dismissed the complaint initially, on procedural grounds. Of the four courts that took up the substance of the Affordable Health Care Act, which you call Obamacare, they split,” he added.

“Two said it was constitutional, two said it was not, and Vinson in Florida, Judge Vinson, Monday had a chance to not only decide whether it was constitutional but to issue an injunction,” said Durbin. “He didn’t do that

  There is just one small problem with Dick Durbin’s position and that is wording that Judge Vinson included in his decision, and here is what the judge had to say in his ruling about his lack of issuing an injunction:

there is a long-standing presumption ‘that officials of the Executive Branch will adhere to the law as declared by the court. As a result, this declaratory judgment is the functional equivalent of an injunction

    Judge Vinson felt that no injunction was necessary because his ruling was equivalent to an injunction; so either Dick Durbin did not read the entire ruling and is oblivious to the fact that this ruling was an injunction on Obamcare in and of itself, or he did read the ruling and decided to ignore the part about Obamcare being null and void.

  I was one of many who was perplexed that Judge Vinson did not order an injunction against Obamacare when he handed down the ruling that the law was unconstitutional, but it turns out that no injunction was necessary because of his ruling. Yet Dick Durbin–and we can extrapolate that to mean most Democrats–think that it is perfectly okay to ignore the court because they feel that they should be able to tell the American people what is best for them, even if it means ignoring the courts and the constitution.

  This is a dangerous position for anyone in the federal government to hold and I fear that Barack Obama and the rest of his regime also subscribe to this logic. Ans this–above all else–is the biggest reason why Barack Obama and the Democrats must be stopped; they feel that the constitution is a hinderance which should be ignored when it stops them from encroaching on the rights of the American people.
