How would a balanced budget amendment cut the heart out of our Constitution?
It would transform our Constitution from one of Enumerated Spending Powers to one of General (“Unlimited”) Spending Powers.

The great fear of all dictators is provoking rebellion before they are ready to handle it.
So Communists, er, Democrats, meet your nemesis, those damned innovative Americans, again. The Daily Caller headline (November 24, 2010) says it all. Yet another unanticipated fastball has been hurled directly at the radical left’s destructive agenda.Breaking News: Power to the People! Repeal Amendment Gaining Strength...
It is called the Repeal Amendment. Brainchild of Georgetown Constitutional Law Professor Randy Barnett...The proposal calls for a constitutional amendment that would allow the states, by a two-thirds majority vote, to repeal objectionable federal legislation and regulations.

Section 3403: Repeal of health care bill is virtually impossible!!!
On December 21, 2009 Harry Reid sold out the Constitutional Republic of the United States of America:
Upon examination of Senator Harry Reid’s amendment to the health care legislation, Senators discovered section 3403. That section changes the rules of the United States Senate.Senate Sets Up Requirement for Super-Majority to Ever Repeal Obamacare
To change the rules of the United States Senate, there must be sixty-seven votes.
Section 3403 of Senator Harry Reid’s amendment requires that “it shall not be in order in the Senate or the House of Representatives to consider any bill, resolution, amendment, or conference report that would repeal or otherwise change this subsection.” The good news is that this only applies to one section of the Obamacare legislation. The bad news is that it applies to regulations imposed on doctors and patients by the Independent Medical Advisory Boards a/k/a the Death Panels.

If OBAMACARE is So Great, Why Did Congress Reject 11 Amendments Requiring THEIR Participation?
Critics of the health care bill said they offered the 11 amendments – including some that would require the president, vice president, and Supreme Court justices to give up their Federal Employees Health Benefit Program (FEHBP) to enroll in the ‘public option’ or Medicaid – to showcase the problems with the massive legislation.Read the whole thing
“If Congress forces our constituents into a public option plan over time, then members of Congress should be expected to do the same,” Rep. Howard McKeon (R-Calif.) told CNSNews.com.

Transparency: Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee passes Health Care Amendment written in invisible ink!
President Obama has promised a "new era of transparency" in Washington, so perhaps he should talk to the Senate about getting with his program. On July 15, six weeks ago, the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee passed an amended $1 trillion health-care bill, with acting Chairman Chris Dodd calling it a "historic achievement." Too bad the committee won't reveal this history even to other Senators, much less to the public.Health-Care Secrets
Three weeks ago Republicans on the committee wrote Mr. Dodd "to reiterate our request for a full copy of the bill as amended, in the four-week mark-up." Mr. Dodd has refused to comply. The Senate bill that is available on the committee Web site is 790 pages long. While that is some 300 pages shorter than the House health bill, that's in part because it doesn't include nearly 200 amendments that passed when the committee redrafted the bill. Amended sections of the bill might as well be written in invisible ink.
