Today is the day. SCOTUSblog live at 8:45 AM.
(Excerpt) Read more at scotusblog.wpengine.com ...
sound like the cut the turd in half
NOW WHAT????????????????
Is it done or does it stay?
Better get ready for your “Vegtable Purchase Mandate” and “Electric Car” mandate. Because according to the Supreme Court the Feds can force you to purchase anything they deem is good for you...
Per Scotusblog if they have it right: So the mandate is constitutional. Chief Justice Roberts joins the left of the Court.
The Day the Constitution died.
REPEALREPEALREPEALREPEALREPEAL!!!
If people weren’t energized before, they better damn well be now. I’m so mad I could spit all over again ike its March of 2009!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As I understand it, reported on FoxNews, the word tax does not appear in this bill. How then do you support the individual mandate as a tax?
I didn’t trust Roberts when Bush selected him.
The fix is in .
We need a revolution.
Bush should have chosen Janice Rogers Brown instead of Roberts.
Can these morons read the Constitution?
It stays.
The whole turd is upheld as Constitutional
May God damn them all and this joke of a nation it has become.
Worth repeating:
The Day the Constitution died.
Roberts did us in. Unreal.
The fight goes on. Underscores the importance of winning control of the Senate and Presidency.
Welcome to Taquiyya, folks. We are all dhimmis now. God’s wrath will be poured out on this country.
The whole turd is upheld as Constitutional
I wanted to be wrong but I’m not.
John Roberts has been threatened. Period.
And therefore Obama has passed the largest tax increase in history, breaking his many campaign pledges, not that it matters to him.
The Act is too large for this to be the only Constitutional challenge. Next up I predict a challenge to the Act's attempt to bind future a Congress.
We must take back the Senate while holding the House.
Mandate survives under the taxing power of the Federal governemnt—Roberts has joined with the four lefties to give them a 5-4 decision.
Roberts says the mandate is not a proper under the “Commerce Clause” or the “Necessary and Proper” clause,but OK under the taxing power—has nothing to do with fairness of what Congress enacts.
The Dred Scott decison of 2012.
Thus, the entire act is upheld as Constitutional.
FU GEORGE W BUSH
FU OBAMA
FU ROBERTS
W strikes again with traitor Roberts.
Roberts is a huge disappointment..
Crap!
Let the Revolution begin....
It certainly seems so. Sad.
If it’s a tax then you can’t challenge the constitutionality of a tax until you have actually been forced to pay the tax. When does the mandate actually come into effect as a tax?
I am so pissed off right now!
This sorry bunch of morons, all politicians and the jackass in the Whitehouse have just sold the American people down the freaking river!
We are done if we do not resist!
“When injustice becomes law, resistance becomes mandatory” Thomas Jefferson
“Our precedent demonstrates that Congress had the power to impose the exaction in Section 5000A under the taxing power, and that Section 5000A need not be read to do more than impose a tax. This is sufficient to sustain it. “
Never again with a Bush in the Whitehouse.
This is horrible.
The Bush family has been the destruction of the Republican party. As much as Obama likes to blame Bush for everything, in a way, he’s got a point.
I used to kid my lefty friends when they’d bitch about George Bush: “I don’t know what you’re all complaining about, George Bush is the best Democrat the Republicans ever elected.”
...how true that was.
Ok...NOW the telling thing will be, WHAT STATEMENT WILL MYTH ROMNEY MAKE?!? And how soon...
If we have a chance at repealing this, Myth better come out swinging and hitting hard. If not, we KNOW the fix (New World Order) is in...
I’m no lawyer, but how can the Court change it to a tax? Congress has to do that!
As God is my witness I will not watch the Kenyan gloating over this.
Our only hope is to defeat this guy in November.
I don’t care how little enthusiasm everyone has for Romney, please get over it and vote for him.
To save our country.
Another Souter.... oh well - on to the election. The Senate races should start tipping our way now.
Would you not agree this is a strictly constitutional decision? In other words, Justice Roberts agreed that it’s outside the reach of the Commerce Clause but not outside Congress’s constitutionally-granted power to tax?
“Amy Howe:
The court reinforces that individuals can simply refuse to pay the tax and not comply with the mandate.”
WHAT????
As I understand it 2014...
There’s a reason Roberts was confirmed easily by the Senate Dems whereas they fought like hell against Alito. I guess this is the reason.
Our country died today thanks to Roberts.
As much as I dislike Mitt Romney. He is our only chance of getting rid of this Obama-nation now. He claims that if elected he will exempt everybody from the requirements by granting a universal waiver.
“The court reinforces that individuals can simply refuse to pay the tax and not comply with the mandate. “
Yeah sure..and if you refuse to pay the tax what happens?????
For all the crap Obama has blamed on Bush, he finally has something that CAN be blamed on Bush.
You gotta be $hitting me!
Ok...NOW the telling thing will be, WHAT STATEMENT WILL MYTH ROMNEY MAKE?!? And how soon...
If we have a chance at repealing this, Myth better come out swinging and hitting hard. If not, we KNOW the fix (New World Order) is in...
I was right. I Posted this yesterday:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2900077/posts?page=59#59
I think they will uphold it all.
And what will we do tomorrow, yeah post a few posts of disappointment.Same thing we did when the Obama monster passed the Dream Act Amnesty by itself without the approval of congress.
What can we do. Pat Buchanan is right , the U.S.A is committing suicide.
Few people realize that we have to dismantle 99% of these government agencies and the laws that authorize them, at all levels of government: abolish government schools, the EPA, IRS, FEC, HUD, TSA, OSHA, dept of energy, dept of education etc. keep only customs, tariffs, military, and border control ,police and courts, abolish everything else
There is no peaceful way to do that now.
10,000 new IRS agents.
