Self-Delusion has become the latest prerequisite for membership in the right wing.
So the left no longer has exclusive rights to self delusion?

Keyword > INTERSTATE not INTRASTATE.
Intrastate activities can fall under the interstate commerce clause if those activities would have any rational effect on interstate commerce.
Consider also the Necessary and Proper clause.
The experts, and even the Supreme Court, could decide to rule in favor of Congress on this one, and could still be wrong. If the law discriminates against people's beliefs (in either health insurance or constitutionality of the bill itself), where consent of the governed is normally required to make a legally binding social contract, that is not Constitutional.
Any law that does "discriminates against people's beliefs" is unconstitutional? Using that standard, every law passes is unconstitutional, as you'll find at least one person that feels the law goes against their beliefs.
Yes.
Because they're either cowards or don't mean a word they say about limited gubmint and constitutional constructionist principles....I'd go as far to say it's both.
Yes, since the federal law in question trumps the laws of the individual states.
NO it doesn't to think so relegates the Tenth Amendment to obscuirty and ignorence as you display. The FED cannot mandate something they have NO RIGHT in doing.
For all the harping on the Constitution, it's pretty clear you're never read it. Article VI clearly states that where federal laws, when constitutional, trump state law. If the Supreme Court were to rule that the mandate was constitutional, that, by definition, would invalidate state laws prohibiting the mandate.
This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.
