You're still straining at a gnat.

The 'front door' retained Obamacare. What the 'back door' might mean for some future decision hardly measures on that scale.

Yes, Roberts said that the Commerce clause had been stretched too far to justify Obamacare. But then he said that it didn't matter because as long as they call it a 'tax' the Federal Government can do anything it wants anyway.

The *issue* is that Roberts said that the Federal Government can take over the health care decisions of private citizens. Why (whether the rationale in the majority or minority opinions) is not significant next to that decision.

Yes, it wasn't all that they liberals wanted. But just because their win on taking over the entire national health care system was not in itself justification for the *next* part of our nation they want to socialize doesn't mean they didn't socialize health care - which was and has always been the most important topic for statists.

You mean kinda like the feds can..

regulate your retirement ( socialist security ) which was passed due to the commerce clause.

cannot happen again.

hand out welfare which was passed due to the necessary and proper clause.

cannot happen again.

punish the states by removing funding for not following unfunded mandates (dictorial directives from the feds).

cannot happen again.

These cannot happen again because the back door has been closed, slammed shut, and nailed down.

Our children can have a better future because of this.

From this point forward, the libs are dead in their tracks, unless we, the people, let them have unrestricted power again. This is why roberts put the blame for fubocare squarely on the shoulders of the voting public, where it belongs.

Get it repealed, and these rulings will still stand.

It is up to us.

We have been handed the ammunition to eradicate the socialist agenda, if we are dilligent and willing...

The man is not a traitor ( as he has been called ) he is not a socialist ( as he has been called ) and he is not a conservative..

He is a federalist....

Accept this ruling for the victory that it is, and put the energy spent here on this subject into getting fubocare repealed, and we might just get it done...

and his ruling will still stand..
