A U.S. judge upheld the constitutionality of the health-care overhaul President Barack Obama signed in March, rejecting an argument brought by a self- described Christian law center in the first legal victory for the new law.

Thank you! That explains it.
This corrupt piece of sh!+ is a Clinton judge.
Can I ask what I am suppused to be looking for that is relevant to the posted comment?
“I dont know what it takes to convince people that the judiciary is very corrupt.”
Very corrupt! And I don’t know what it takes to convince Republican senators that stopping Obama from appointing more anti-constitution judges is critical. The president has a right to nominate whomever he wants. The Senate has a DUTY to put an end to confirming judicial activists.
“is a reasonable means of effectuating Congresss goal,
Forget about the US Constitution, Congress is what matters.

OXYMORON - stress on the MORON.
Who writes this tripe?
“hasn’t got beyond the edge of the Democrat party talking points when he says that.”
But, but, but the judiciary is completely non-partisan.../sarc
Great post...OUTSTANDING thread. Thanks to every poster/linker/researcher/educator. America’s robed mullahs will be coming out of the woodwork to further subjugate us to totalitarians.
“When in the course of human events...”
is he Canadian?
Hmmmm..........maybe that was the strategy - find one of the dumbest, most leftist federal judges in the country and get a really stupid ruling that’s easier to get overturned by the SCOTUS.

That was my thought. Give them something they can take one look at and say "Oh, HELL NO!"
He's not only morally vacant he's mentally unbalanced.
Take back my earlier proposal for Congress giving him a new office in the UP in an unheated log cabin.
I think a little "shock treatment" might be better ~ so something more like a tar-paper shack around Dawson maybe.
If that’s not a s***-eating grin, I don’t know what is.
I love it!
for later
Somebody call P.J. O’Rourke and tell him to dust off his enemies list.
Our best hope resides with the Commonwealth of Virginia. If we can't win in the 4th US Circuit, we won't win anywhere else.
paleeezz!
What has been forced upon America is actually a "Healthcare Replacement" and not the aforesaid "Overhaul."
