Dan Fisher, the Oklahoma republican representative from House District 60, has had enough of this socialist nonsense and he is going to, by God, do something about it. In yesterdays OKC paper reporter, Michael McNutt quotes Mr. Fisher as saying, "When states' rights have been tread upon we have a responsibility to speak up, and this is one of those moments." The legislator went on to add, "There comes a time when American citizens must say no."
Fisher is a man of action. He has authored Oklahoma House Bill 2073. If passed it would make it a felony for any federal official, or corporate employee to provide services which comply with the United States of America Affordable Care Act. In fact, according to the proposed law, your leftist ass will end up spending five years in the slammer if you do so. The bill also makes it a misdemeanor, punishable for up to two years, for a state employee, including the governor, to enforce any provisions of the federal law which is also known as Obamacare. Why Fisher decided to bestow some relative mercy on state employees, including the governor is unclear, although political affiliation probably has something to do with it. I mean after all it would be a bit unseemly to throw the governor, who is a member of your own party, into the can for half a decade.
McNutt writes, Fisher, who is in his rookie year at the state capitol, has said that the U.S. Constitution does not grant Congress or President Barak Obama the power to pass the Affordable Care Act. Unfortunately for the new lawmaker the United States Supreme Court, the final arbiter of all things constitutional, has ruled he is wrong.
This causes a wee bit of a problem. The constitution says the rulings of the Supreme Court are the law of the land. There is no higher authority, not even Dan Fisher's brain. So if a legislator votes for this bill it could well be interpreted he or she has violated their oath to uphold the very constitution the representative says he is trying to preserve.
Yes, Brother Fisher, it is a tragedy for you and people like you, but simply put the constitution can't be unconstitutional. You can't violate it in order to enforce your personal interpretation of it.
Meanwhile, House District 84 republican, Sally Kern is as busy as a beaver protecting us from the dire threat of internationalism. Her House Bill 1412 prohibits any city, town, or county from "adopting or implementing policy recommendations" established by the United Nations Agenda 21 initiative.
Agenda 21 is a global, nonbinding and totally voluntary plan, that addresses issues such as poverty, health, sustainable population growth, deforestation, the preservation of micro environments, pollution control and management of radioactive wastes. It also endorses the further empowerment of children, women, the improved relations between businesses and their employees, and advocates for the rights of indigenous peoples.
Kern, who is better known for her homophobic rants, ("The homosexual agenda is destroying this nation. It's just a fact.") isn't kidding around when it comes to the sinister plots of The New World Order. McNutt writes that her bill would prohibit the state from contracting with, or exchanging funds with any nongovernmental, or intergovernmental organization which is accredited by the U.N.
That's right baby, screw the world! Who needs 'em? U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!
Fisher's bill was approved by its committee 8-5. Kern's passed, 9-4.
I know we'll all sleep better tonight.
