It owns the clothes.”

By Michelle Malkin  •  September 1, 2009 02:04 PM

YAF/Hot Air TV correspondent Jason Mattera went undercover with Obamacare supporters at a Virginia town hall meeting — and got an education from f-bomb-dropping protesters, proud socialists, and a Commune Dweller who explains collective wardrobe rules for radicals:

It owns the clothes.”

    The lady who said the general welfare clause justifies government health insurance is an idiot. Why would the Founders put in the Tenth Amendment if the GW clause could be used to justify any behavior by the Federal government? That woman hardly knows anything about the Constitution and what this nation is about. I suspect that she cares nothing about what the Constitution means, but just wants Uncle Sam to take money away from responsible people and give it to her.

    Conservatives don’t need to lie about socialism, or say anything about those who knowingly, or ignorantly support it…a picture is worth a million words.

    Notonly that, but the General Welfare Clause is immediately followed in the Constitution by a list of the ways Congress may promote the general welfare. Just in case you missed it, here it is:

    To borrow Money on the credit of the United States;

    To regulate Commerce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes;

    To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization, and uniform Laws on the subject of Bankruptcies throughout the United States;

    To coin Money, regulate the Value thereof, and of foreign Coin, and fix the Standard of Weights and Measures;

    To provide for the Punishment of counterfeiting the Securities and current Coin of the United States;

    To establish Post Offices and post Roads;

    To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries;

    To constitute Tribunals inferior to the supreme Court;

    To define and punish Piracies and Felonies committed on the high Seas, and Offences against the Law of Nations;

    To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;

    To raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two Years;

    To provide and maintain a Navy;

    To make Rules for the Government and Regulation of the land and naval Forces;

    To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

    To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;

    To exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States, and to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings;–And

    To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.

    Nothing here that covers government healthcare, in my opinion. Of course, there’s nothing here covering a lot of things the government is, but should not be, doing.

    I hope this current wake-up call is for real.

    It’s all about James Madison’s take on all this. Maybe you’ve heard of him. His nickname was “the Father of the Constitution”.

    Is it me, or is Patch Adams a bit too touchy/grabby? I’d be really creeped out if he kept coming over and touching/grasping my shoulder.

    I’m sure a psychologist could offer some insight, but I get the impression that it’s some kind of “alpha male” thing. Funny if it is…he’s from a commune where all are supposedly equal, but he keeps grasping Jason’s shoulder, trying to control Jason and his conversation.
