What is it that our Government Employees Don't Understand about the Constitution?

Judge Andrew Napolitano recently had an interview with James Clyburn D-SC the third ranking member of the House of Representatives of the US.

Judge Napolitano: “Where in the Constitution is the federal government charged with maintaining people’s health?”

Clyburn: “There’s nothing in the Constitution that says the federal government has anything to do with most of the stuff we do.”

Judge: “You took an oath to uphold the Constitution. You can’t go outside the Constitution because you think it is a good thing to do without violating that oath!”

Clyburn: “How about show me where in the Constitution it prohibits the federal government from doing this?”

The Judge then, of course, cites the 10th Amendment to the Constitution.

Article [X]

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Lesson to be learned is that our Senators and Congressmen have not read the Constitution which is one page long how can we expect them to read the health care bill?
