This is a must listen. Judge Napolitano interviews Kevin Gutzman and Tom Woods on the constitutionality of health care reform and possible States’ Rights remedies. Napolitano was sitting in for Glenn Beck
An interesting side note is that the video was posted by someone calling himself “therightscoop” and who is represented by a picture of Charles Krauthammer. Does “therightscoop” not realize that neocon nationalists like Krauthammer would be appalled by the direction Napolitano, Woods, and Gutzman take in this video?
When I was an undergraduate in college, a fellow student of my acquaintance had the nickname “The Reason.” (I am being as vague as possible to protect the innocent.) This young man was a really nice guy, but was not, shall we say, particularly hip. He belonged to a certain fraternal organization. This fraternal organization also had the reputation for being, shall we say, less hip than many other fraternal organizations on campus. You can see where I’m going with this. Now why this young man was allowed to pledge this fraternal organization, organizations which typically pride themselves on their hipness, I do not know. Perhaps it was because he was a legacy. Perhaps it was because this particular fraternal organization happened to cater to a certain ethnic and religious minority and they were therefore duty bound to accept all comers who were also members of that ethnic and religious minority. Perhaps they just had a big heart. Again, I do not know. But whatever the case, whenever the less hip status of this fraternal organization was brought up, the fellow student of my acquaintance was cited as … well you guessed it … “The Reason.”
David Lindsay is a sometimes right, often frustratingly wrong, but always interesting blogger at the American Conservative website. David Lindsay is also, like my fellow student, “The Reason.” He is also my Facebook friend, but may not be after he reads this.
Constitutional scholar Dr. Kevin Gutzman was recently interviewed on the Mike Church Show regarding the illegitimate use of the General Welfare Clause to justify federal control over health care. Dr. Gutzman is the author of Who Killed the Constitution and the Politically Incorrect Guide to the Constitution.
The segment began with Church playing a clip of Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D -MD) asserting that the General Welfare Clause authorizes Congress to control health care. Here is a transcript of the interview that followed. Needless to say, Dr. Gutzman disagrees.
