This past week, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, over the vigorous dissent of four judges on that court, denied rehearing en banc (legalese for an entire court rather than just a panel of three judges) in the case of Sissel v. United States Department of Health and Human Services.
Sissel is a case against Obamacare led by the Pacific Legal Foundation, arguing that Obamacare is invalid because it violated the Origination Clause.
Now, the challengers have ninety days to file a writ of certiorari (an appeal) before the U.S. Supreme Court.

and when the judges rule in favor of the wants of the oligarchy, all the drivebys say “see....told you so”...
They will say they make their own rules.
There is a way around the origination clause until his illegally adopted children turn 18. Until that point Obama (or any other bastard in the Oval Office) cannot order his children seized and deported back to Ireland.
"until his illegally adopted" = "until Robert's illegally adopted"
Johnny Roberts will find a way to find it “constitutional” (again).
I guess the point is the constitution is no longer the final law of the land.
Or in other words we’ve become a full blown banana republic where the rule of law is whatever those in power say it is today.
SCOTUS Chief Justice Roberts is Bozo in POTUS Obama’s Clown Circus.
ZERO chance of being declared unconstitutional.
Give it up. Roberts will just say, “Well, they MEANT to originate in the House . . .”
Oh good and chief justice “ I snuck in an irish kid for adoption” roberts will be sure to vote which ever way obama wants him to........again
The point needs to be raised that the Constitution is the ONLY law passed by the people, who are sovereign. Should be highlighted in any/all new cases going to SCOTUS. It is the means by which we, the people, have delegated power to those that we elect. They have breached this mandate in two big ways - going beyond limited govt that we (at the time, of course) specified as a condition of giving them power... and by sub-delegating to the regulatory agencies, also not allowed, as a condition of giving them power.
OTOH, the "we the people" that passed this law refers to about 5 million people that are in effect unelected representatives... but if this is not accepted, we're back to anarchy.
What the heck, it could be fun to see the Roberts and his gang contort themselves and the Constitution one more time before President Trump and his minions in Congress repeal the whole thing.
This is someone’s idea of a joke. It has to be.
This is a job for SuperRoberts. He is able to leap over the Constitution with a single bound. He can change written law with a single utterance.
May I suggest a sight alteration?
has been made Constitutional
They sure did! It's right there in the penumbras and emanations.
Well, they made up subsidies in federal exchanges the last time after a plain reading of the Obamacare law says otherwise in multiple places, plus they made up the ‘right’ of homosexuals to marry, so I would expect them to twist and warp the Constitution (again) to not mean what it plainly says.
and buried in the disgronificators and the elocutions.
No, no.
EVERYTHING this guy does has been to align himself with the stinking UN.
EVERYthing.
His goal is to run the UN and then he world-—he believes, as the smartest, most amazing, godlike man on the planet (Earf).
There it is: short, ignorant in tone, but sweet and true. Love it.
When Trump cleans house, things will be different. Very different.
(Kinda reminds you of Hercules cleaning the Augean Stables, doesn't it!)
