ORIGINAL: RacerJim There is also nothing in the U.S. Constitution which allows the Federal government to pay for abortions with tax-payer dollars. quite the opposite in fact. Well, first, the federal government doesn't do this. Second, we do MANY things not explicitly "allowed" in the Constitution, as that's not the function of a set of guiding principles. It's why we have laws, and yes, Congress gets to make those laws, explicitly by the Constitution, and the Supreme Court gets the final say--per the Constitution. quote:
ORIGINAL: cuckoldmepls By the way, I only posted this because someone had the audacity to post a topic heading republican death panels. If a moderator wants to delete both threads, no complaints here. Oh come on. That thread was obviously in response to Palin's whine about imaginary death panels in the health care bill. It's the old anti-health care warning, "We'll have to ration health care!" But we ration it NOW--we give it to those who can pay. EVERYTHING in an economy is "rationed" -- scarcity is one of the basic economic premises.
