email I received -tea Party Patriots "Legal Win for the Constitution Regarding ObamaCare
As you may know, today a Federal Court Judge in Virginia ruled that ObamaCare is unconstitutional. While we know this is the first victory in a long process to repeal ObamaCare and there will be many more battles before the final victory, enjoy this ruling today and enjoy the fact that Judge Henry E. Hudson has sided with Constitution!

Tea Party Patriots Statement on Ruling by U.S. District Court Judge Henry Hudson

Washington -- Mark Meckler and Jenny Beth Martin, national co-coordinators of Tea Party Patriots released the following statements today on the ruling by U.S. District Judge Henry Hudson on the unconstitutionality of ObamaCare:

"This is a great victory for the American people, the rule of law and the constitutional principles of individual liberty and freedom, " said Mark Meckler, national co-coordinator of Tea Party Patriots. "Although this ruling has a long journey before it reaches the Supreme Court, we are confident that this massive congressional mistake will continue to be found unconstitutional."

"It is difficult to imagine a more massive repudiation of ObamaCare than the recent November election, however, this ruling adds tremendous judicial weight to the votes cast by the American people," said Jenny Beth Martin," national co-coordinator of Tea Party Patriots. "ObamaCare is unconstitutional, and we are confident that the Supreme Court will ultimately protect the American people from a reckless congressional mistake."

1. and regarding the "Tax Compromise"
TEA PARTY PETITION SLAMS TAX COMPROMISE

AS 'BACKROOM DEAL'

Americans Demand Promised Transparency, Adherence to 'Pledge to America'



WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, the Tea Party Patriots launched a petition (http://notaxcompromise.com/) to supporters across the country denouncing the tax cut compromise forged in secret by the Obama Administration and Republican Leadership in Congress. The plan was negotiated without the consultation of newly-elected Members of Congress or the American people and violates several components of the Republican's "Pledge to America."



"This 'backroom deal' ignores those who voted for principled leadership on Election Day," said Mark Meckler, National Coordinator of Tea Party Patriots. "Americans demand transparency in the legislative process and policies that reflect fiscal responsibility-not secret negotiations and weak compromise."



"Republicans in Congress only have the leverage to negotiate for tax deals because of the support Americans gave them and principled candidates across the country," said Jenny Beth Martin, National Coordinator of Tea Party Patriots. "It is an insult to those who voted them into power to procrastinate on their pledge to honor conservative principles."



Following are excerpts of the petition:



· Do not let Congress compromise with President Obama. "The Compromise" is against everything the House Republican Leadership agreed to in the "Pledge to America." This type of behind closed door politics is not what "We the People" voted for in November.

· "The Deal" was forged in secret, without consultation with the scores of new representatives and senators who campaigned on a much different agenda.

· "The Deal" like Obamacare, isn't reduced to writing even now. Like Obamacare, we are being told we will have to pass the bill to find out what is in it.

· "The Deal" revives the death tax, an immoral "vampire tax" that sucks the blood from the dead, ruins family businesses and double taxes savings that were accumulated over a lifetime.

· "The Deal" spends billions and billions of dollars that the country does not have in order to prevent a tax hike that the country voted against...the GOP bribed the president to follow the will of the people.

· There are at least five provisions of the Pledge that are violated by "The Deal."

(I repeat...

3. This is one decision against, versus 11 in favor
Don't let the nitwits try to paint this as "over," or even as a "refudiation" of Congress' work.
