They’re blackmailing him in some way. Someday it will all come out.
To paraphrase Bill Clinton, John Roberts may well say “it depends upon what the meaning of ‘by’ is”.
The language of the law is quite clear and unambiguous to any honest person. To those who want to change it, they can simply say the logical equivalent of “inside now means outside” to arrive at their desired end. It’s amazing how far the Republic has fallen.
What Republic?
Research the background of his children and how he adopted them. There are lots of suspicions there.
I’d heard that. What high-ranking official takes such a risk?
The Obamacare ruling destroyed Roberts for me.
The Left claimed no new taxation was being implemented.
So Robert ignored the right and the left, to create a new tax.
What a maroon!
One that originated in the Senate, no less! (Constitutionally, revenue measures must originate in the House.)
Another good point...
Obama’s HHS just argued this week that the term “state” allows them to exclude territories (Guam, Puerto Rico, etc.) from the ACA/Obamacare: “The definition of “state” in the Public Health Service Act indicates that the ACA market rules don’t apply to the territories, HHS wrote.” http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2014/07/17/the-administration-just-took-obamacare-away-from-the-territories/
Or a gay thing.
Roberts illegally adopted some foreign kids.
Obammy blackmailed the dirt bag in to going along with his schemes.
Roberts along with nearly everyone in D.C. are leaches.
A corporation’s a person and money is speech, so anything’s possible.
See, we had to pass it to find out what’s in it..... /sarc
Maybe the issue will hinge on the specificity of Section 1311 versus 1321. There's no ambiguity in the numbers.
Do the Courts ever presume typos?
Isn’t the word in question “states”? That would eliminate the alleged ambiguity
I’ve been suspicious of Roberts and Alito since Bush appointed them..
Bush made Obama possible.. and the Bush’s have always been One Worlders.. ALL of them..
AND stealth democrats..
I afford him NO excuses. To me, his decision was purposeful...and was engendered by an obvious legal and moral failing in his character....nothing more, nothing less.
He made a choice....and it was just plain wrong...and harmful to the nation (HIS nation, also)....in a myriad of injurious ways as we are seeing every day.
He, and he alone, is at fault...and he, alone, bears the responsibility and the censure.

There are quite a few people, left and right, who are calling the language of the bill a “mistake” (on the left, they think of it as a simple “typo” and on the right, there’s some glee over “finding out what’s in it after it’s passed”).
That’s incorrect. It was intentional, and done on purpose to get the CBO scoring of the bill’s 10-year cost to be less than the arbitrary target of $1 trillion. The thinking at the time was that they’d pass the bill within the limits they publicly proclaimed, and then “fix” the “errors” after the fact when no one was paying attention to the price tag.
But something funny happened on the way to that result - the Democrats lost their filibuster-proof majority in the Senate and now could no longer make any changes to the version the Senate passed, but couldn’t pass any “fix” bills that would follow.
Now, of course, the left is clamoring for what the left always does: to demand that the court impose through fiat what they were unable to do via legislation.
