Senator Burris’ Conflict with the Constitution
Democratic Party hack Roland Burris, (D-Il) who got his job as a United States senator as a result of disgraced governor Blago’s greed and because of the color of his skin, made a profound observation on Obamacare’s mandated health insurance.
Sen. Burris, a constitutional ignoramus, “pointed to the part of the Constitution that he says authorizes the federal government ‘to provide for the health, welfare and the defense of the country.’ “
Advised in an October 21st interview with CNS that the word “health” appears nowhere in the Constitution, Bumbling Burris, an over-achiever if there ever was one, blustered, “That’s under the Constitution. We’re not even dealing with any constitutionality here.”
Excuse me?
Burris then rambled on about private options, yada, yada, yada, and resorted to the Democrat default position by dredging up a number constantly in flux: ”We’ve got the 48 million people who are without it. [health insurance]”
Disregarding the fact that his number is baloney . . .

The Peter Principle in Action: Roland Burris
The Peter Principle in Action: Roland Burris
Deposed Illinois Governor, Hot Rod Blagojevich, may be more flamboyant than his pick to fill Barack Obama’s seat in the United States Senate but Roland Burris is almost as tainted.
Unlike Blago, Burris hasn’t been caught. Yet.
What Burris has going for him is principally the color of his skin and certainly not the content of his character.
As with Charlie Rangel in the House, his new Senate colleagues dare not mess with him unless his moral turpitude exceeds the average corruption norm, as it may finally have with Old Charlie.
Burris is a party hack, plain and simple, one of those guys who line up as per instructions from Chicago’s Daley Machine and vote early and often on election days.
He, like Al Franken, is a walking, talking exemplar of the time-proven axiom that people tend to rise to the level of their incompetence, aka, the Peter Principle.
Clearly demonstrating how out of touch with reality the guy is, Burris was one of just seven senators–all Democrats–who voted against defunding ACORN after a number of that slew of hoods was filmed giving aid and comfort to a “pimp” and a “prostitute.”
Those exposés were the icing on the ACORN malfeasants’ cake which has been overflowing for years with multiple tales of, and convictions for, voter fraud and other criminal activities as well as by ACORN’s complicity in the sub-prime mortgage scandals.

Undismayed, Burris supported the group, along with fellow . . .
