Missourians voted to NOT have a “must have health insurance” law in defiance of the Federal Gov’t (read: Democrats).
Tuesday’s vote was seen as largely symbolic because federal law generally trumps state law. But it was also seen as a sign of growing voter disillusionment with federal policies and a show of strength by conservatives and the tea party movement.
Enough is enough.
Federal law generally trumps state law, they say. Way way too much power resides in the hands of the Federal Gov’t.
Correction from Aggie Sith: Here’s Pete Stark opening his mouth.
Moonbattery has a good post on Stark’s ravings. The imagery of “peeing on a constituent’s leg” is beautiful to my eyes. Ears. Brain. Whatever.
