We hear a lot of hemming and hawing from Democrats these days that Obamacare is the law of the land and found constitutional.

That got me to thinking – has there ever been a bad law that was ruled constitutional previously, verified as “The Law of The Land” yet ruled unconstitutional many years after?

I cracked open an old history book I had from my high school days and believe it or not, I actually did find one.

America is a Democratic Republic and as such, there are things that are made law every single day. Most of these laws of which we’re completely unaware.

There are bad laws and there are good laws. Our founders gave us a document that is a companion to the brain that God gave us. They knew that “the law” is not rigid and uncompromising, but a living, evolving entity.

They knew things can and will change with the times. To say that something is simply “the law” is asinine and ignorant of our country’s rich history of enacting laws that suck and then repealing laws when cooler/wiser/different heads prevailed.

I’ll leave you with this small list of laws that sucked and were ultimately repealed.

Separate but Equal

Jim Crow

Prohibition

Fugitive Slave Act

Alien & Sedition Act

Chinese Exclusive Act
