These people are the sorest fucking losers I have ever seen!

[cynatnite]

Nine Republican members of the Wisconsin Legislature say they would back a bill to arrest any federal officials who attempt to implement President Obama's signature health care law in the state.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports that the nine state lawmakers told the Tea Party-aligned Campaign For Liberty that they support authorizing "state and local law enforcement to arrest federal officials attempting to implement the unconstitutional health scheme known as Obamacare."

One of the nine lawmakers backing Campaign for Liberty's proposal is state representative Chris Kapenga (R-Delafield), who told the Journal Sentinel that he believes the health care law is unconstitutional.

"Just because Obama was reelected does not mean he's above the constitution," he said.

Between the idiotic petitions and now this, they are nothing more than temper tantrum throwing brats who didn't get their way. They are just pathetic.

1. I'm sure Federal prison has room for 9 more GOP lawmakers.

[msongs]

2. and the people of wisconsin gave them back control of the whole government in WI nt

[alterfurz]

38. in our (partial) defense...

...this was the first election under the new Republican gerrymander:

[Horse with no Name]

3. Yet SCOTUS ruled it Constitutional

seems it really doesn't matter what they think....send the National Guard in to enforce the Law of the Land.

[kentuck]

5. Maybe they hadn't heard?

Perhaps they deserve the benefit of the doubt?

[Horse with no Name]

7. I'm not inclined to give them that

but hey, I never said I was reasonable!

[freshwest]

15. Hey, I don't claim to be 'fair and balanced' with wingnuts, either, LOL!!

[nxylas]

21. And what gives them the right to do that?

In the reality-based community, the answer is "the constitution", but in the rightwingoverse, that's considered a rhetorical question. Wingnuts bang on endlessly about the constitution, but they don't actually know anything about it. The response over at Freak Republic after the Supreme Court decision was "How do we appeal this?"

[Michigan Alum]

37. How do we appeal this??!!

Hilarious!

[mimi85]

4. And Paul Ryan

is still in a giant bubble. Not only did the GOP lose the state - Ryan lost in his home town! Loved hearing that!

[Journeyman]

6. Kapenga believes the law unconstitutional. Roberts & his Court beg to differ. Who will prevail?. . .

Hmmm. . . Wonder what the odds on that wager will be?

[Kennah]

14. Maybe they will appeal to God

[freshwest]

16. You mean the one whose son healed the sick for free? Good luck with that one, baggers...

Might just send them to the line with the rest of the goats... Or in the hot place with William Hickman and Ayn Rand...

If the baggers claim God as their authority, they need to shut up about the Constitution since there's no Bible verse about it or America..

And since they claim to live by the Bible, they may die by the same judgements... Just sayin'

[Kennah]

18. No, not Hippie Jesus. I might Rambo Jesus. The one they worship.

[freshwest]

22. They're all going to hell, if there is one.

[Kennah]

41. Methodist Hell or Southern Baptist Hell?

[freshwest]

42. Southern Baptist is the one I know best, LOL!

[abelenkpe]

8. I love how they fight for the right to be screwed by insurance companies

Idiots!

And racists.

[cherish44]

9. They know they can't do shit, they're just giving their moronic base something to jerk off to

Sorry for the crass description but this is just a right wing masturbatory aid.

[Populist_Prole]

17. +1

What I always thought of moves like these: They just want to go down swinging ( and they will go down )

[Fence rider]

10. I suppose

They probably want to see his birth certificate too. How do these idiots get elected? Who votes for someone that doesn't keep up with current events? Have these morons even heard of the supreme court? I bet they think it doesn't count for them? Best of luck to their constituents!

[bluestate10]

11. There are people called Federal Marshals that will arrest their ass and Scott Walker if they attempt

to fuck with federal officials doing their jobs.

[Nye Bevan]

12. The 101st Airborne Division may be needed to ensure that the ACA is enforced in Wisconsin,

just as they were needed to enforce school desegregation in Little Rock.

[lonestarnot]

13. Tee hee!

[jmowreader]

35. Posse comitatus will prevent that from happening

It does not, however, prevent the US Marshals Service from enforcing it.

[jeff47]

39. Um....no, that poster was referring to something that really happened.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Rock_Nine

On September 24, the President ordered the 101st Airborne Division of the United States Army to Little Rock and federalized the entire 10,000 member Arkansas National Guard

You also might want to read up on Posse Comitatus:

Contrary to popular belief, the Act does not prohibit members of the Army from exercising state law enforcement, police, or peace officer powers that maintain "law and order"; it simply requires that any authority to do so must exist with the United States Constitution or Act of Congress. In this way, most use of the Army and the Air Force at the direction of the President does not offend the statute, even though it may be problematic for political reasons.

19. State by state

[freshwest]

20. We need to print up those GOP signs they used on Gore and Liebermann: 'Sore Loserman.'

The Democrats need to picket their meetings with a hundred of those signs changed to 2012:



And someone needs to tell this Chris Kapenga (R-Delusional), that just because he was elected does not mean he's above the US Constitution, his own little self...

[lexw]

24. It reminded me of the same thing.

[yonder]

34. Chris Kapenga (R-Delusional)

fits like a glove

[Major Nikon]

23. They are also too fucking stupid to crack a history book

Many have already tried nullification. All have failed.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nullification_(U.S._Constitution)

[ProfessionalLeftist]

25. So these pricks (sorry it fits) deem themselves

As authoritative above the highest court of the land (USSC)? Amazing arrogance.

[dchill]

30. Not to mention the fact that...

Romney/Ryan lost Ryan's home state - WISCONSIN. LOST - not won. LOST! Jesus X!

[Whovian]

26. Good God. "Teh stupid! It hurts!" nt

[octoberlib]

27. There's no honor among assholes nt

[CheapShotArtist]

28. He needs to put down the crack pipe.

The motherfuckin SUPREME COURT ruled it Constitutional already! What's up with wingnuts and always wanting to waste taxpayer money on re-fighting lost battles?

[dchill]

29. "Tea Party-aligned" is a new euphism...

for "steeped in stupid."

[madrchsod]

31. wow...talk about being delusional

arrest federal officials?

[grahamhgreen]

32. They don't give up. We should not give in.

[AllyCat]

33. NO, Kapenga. This is constitutional because the SUPREME COURT upheld it.

Moron. God, I am embarrassed to be from this state right now.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

36. I bet these idiots believe those "federal officials" will be black.

[CrispyQ]

40. I totally agree.

They are like two year old brats on steroids.
