Expert: Congresswoman "Dead Wrong" on Healthcare and Constitution

By Rick Pearcey • August 27, 2009, 11:38 AM

"A prominent historian and constitutional expert says a Democratic congresswoman from New Hampshire is 'dead wrong' to suggest that 'the Constitution did not cover everything'," reports OneNewsNow.

"Representative Carol Shea-Porter (D-New Hampshire) was asked recently by a talk-radio caller about the constitutionality of the Democrats' government-run healthcare plan. Her response has at least one constitutional expert wondering whether she has ever read the Constitution." . . . 

That expert is "author and historian David Barton, the president of WallBuilders." According to OneNewsNow, Barton "says Shea-Porter's comments reflect her view that Washington government should run everything. He notes that both the Ninth and Tenth Amendments say anything that is not explicitly covered in the Constitution belongs to the states and to the people."
