In the movies the evil scientist will always finally tell you the whole truth when he has you tied up and hanging over a vat of molten lava.

So, if it is a tax, is it legal to exempt certain groups from paying that tax, like unions?

3. It is a taxation bill that originated in the SENATE!

This is unconstitutional!

Article 1, section 7: Section. 7. All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives.

Why is this not being discussed as the torpedo that kills the law, *if* the Regime is successful in convincing the SCOTUS that it is a tax?

IIRC, the bill/law itself says it’s not a tax.

The Oboma regime is calling it a tax in court as a legal defense. Otherwise, congress has no other authority to force this on us. If the bill itself claims it is not a tax, how can it stand?

Yeah that tanning bed tax is nothing but a “cracker” tax.

Yep. The racist policies coming out of the Oboma administration are unprecedented. His legacy will be that of the most racist, and most destructive president in American history.

When he was saying it over and over during the campaign, “not one dime!” I was screaming at McCain to CALL him on it. To look right into the camera, America’s eyes, and say “when have you ever seen a democrat not want to raise taxes? He is lying to you just to get elected”.

If the government takes my money, it’s a theft or a tax... or both.

Money taken without representation, through lies and/or corruption, is unconstitutional and therefore theft. Were I King, convictions of such offenses would result in a sure and swift penalty of death.~Criminal Enterprises can not survive..... if the participants are dead~

The only people that Obama fooled, are the very fools that voted that corrupt bastard into power. ~May they suffer greatly and may never be forgiven~

He didn’t lie. He just didn’t know that it was a tax. Look, Obama is obviously stupid and doesn’t know what he is doing. If we have learned anything in the past 18 months it’s that he is totally clueless.

I’m doubting my memory at this point. Maybe I got it backwards.

The more bricks you throw at it, the more likely one is to connect — and it does not really matter which brick brings down the house of cards. Don’t think of finding a magic bb — think of finding a pack of wolves to bring down the bison.

“... he’s clueless...”

No, it’s worse than that. He knows exactly what he’s doing, and what effect it will have on U.S.

This is the intentional destruction of America, by a Marxist administration, brought to you by O and all his media minions.
