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.

personalities, and then move to implement repression, suppression and cruelty on the rest of us to satisfy their latent sadistic interests.

leave the rest of us alone. I'm so fed up with these blow hards, psychopaths, sociopaths, misogynists and homophobes thinking they represent all of us.
