I have no idea what the SCOTUS is going to do, so I want bother predicting or invest any emotional energy one way or another.

Two things we know: (1) Elections matter
(2) We cannot depend on the SCOTUS to
overturn bad legislation.

The only sure way to repeal Obamacare is to elect a POTUS and a Congress dedicated to repealing it.

No.

The only way to repeal Obamacare and host of other federal social tyranny is through an Article V process via the Convention of States.

If they did, we'd still be arguing over Obamnesty. We'd never have had a Cromnibus. Elections do not matter when Republicans win.

Then you are going to have to start a new party because there is no way that the GOP will do that if the SC rules in favor of the admin (and I think they will). Personally, I think starting a new party is a great idea because it allows advocates of limited government to get a clear and concise message to the public, as opposed to the muddled, non-existent one that now exists with the GOPe.

[[Two things we know: (1) Elections matter]]

Corrwection- Elections USED to matter- now that the GOP has become GOPE- electing a republican is no different really than electing a democrat- - both the left and the GOPe are power and money hungry creeps who rat’s rearend about protecting our constitutional rights any longer- it’s all about the almighty dollar to them-

[[(2) We cannot depend on the SCOTUS to

Bingo, there is no rule of law any longer- our supreme court has gone from being responsible for protecting and upholding the constitution, to one where they legislate from the bench and invent new law that overrides the constitution- and because they are ‘the supreme court’ everyone believes they have the right to do so and that their word is law
