And when it's done right, i.e. by Constitutional amendment, then I think it's wonderful. When the laws of this land are deliberately not enforced and/or gone around? Not so much. [/quote]

Let's be clear about one thing. You have no right to determine what has been done constitutionally and what has not. The Supreme Court -- led by a conservative Chief Justice -- determined that Obamacare is constitutional. You can be of the opinion that that decision was wrong. But, you cannot say that it was unconstitutional. You do not have that power. The Constitution that you claim to hold so dear does not delegate that power to you.

Similarly, bills can be amended in Congress. That is legal and happens to almost every bill. You do not have the right to determine how much of a bill can be amended. If a single word of a bill is changed, and the modified bill is approved by both chambers of Congress and signed by the President, then the modified bill becomes law. The same is true if every word of the bill is changed. You can have the opinion that this procedure is wrong. But, regardless of your opinion, the procedure is perfectly legal.

One other thing you cannot do is expect American citizens to leave the US because they support legal and constitutional changes to our laws. That is the act of an ignorant and closed-minded person. If you are not happy with the changes, you have the right to leave. You do not have the right to expect others to leave. A better person than you would apologize for the suggestion. Sadly, you are not a better person.
