Obama urges straight up or down vote on Constitution!
March 4, 2010 - In an effort to break through bipartisan opposition and public discontent with his latest health insurance reform proposal, illegitimate President Barack Obama today called on the Senate to “take a final, straight up-or-down vote on the U.S. Constitution.”
“The real obstacle to approval of my health care reform plan is this ancient charter of negative liberties that says what the states and the federal government can’t do to you,” said illegitimate President Obama, while standing among a group of physicians dressed in white lab coats and fellow constitutional scholars in white powdered wigs.
While the illegitimate president didn’t use the word “reconciliation” - a parliamentary maneuver allowing majority party leaders to pass bills without tiresome and time-consuming debate - he made his intentions clear.
“The Constitution deserves the same kind of up or down vote that the Bush tax cuts received,” said Obama.
“Once we break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the Founding Fathers in the Constitution, we’ll have no problem passing this historic health care reform legislation.”
The bogus president assured members of Congress, “The Amerikan people expect us to lead”, and that few would miss the nation’s governing charter when it’s gone.
“It’s not like they have time to read the Constitution or the Declaration of Independence anyway,” he added, “what with all the great new shows on TV, and funny stuff on YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.”
