"I believe Congress owes the American people a final up-or-down vote on health care reform." - Pres. Obama, March 10, 2010

But that was last week's rally cry of desperation.

This week, Obama is campaigning for the end to justify the means. As a vaunted Constitutional scholar, I'm sure the President is totally unconcerned about the threatened Tenth Amendment thwarts from 38 states. Or the Supreme Court challenges.

But he is concerned about that imaginary earthquake in Hawaii.

Crunching numbers. Be back sometime.
