From the decision:
The last issue to be resolved is the plaintiffs' request for injunctive relief enjoining implementation of the Act . . . Injunctive relief is an "extraordinary" and "drastic" remedy. It is even more so when the party to be enjoined is the federal government, for there is a long-standing presumption "that officials of the Executive Branch will adhere to the law as declared by the court. As a result, the declaratory judgment is the functional equivalent of an injunction."
In other words, Judge Vinson's finding of unconstitutionality stops the whole thing in its tracks. If the Obama Administration attempts to continue to implement the Act (which can no longer be called a law, as it has been struck down in total by a Federal judge), then I would imagine the plaintiffs would go right back to Vinson who would at that point issue an injunction.
I would certainly think that any President who cavalierly ignores the lawful order of the Judicial Branch is just begging for impeachment proceedings in the House. Judge Vinson has just said that Obamacare is not a valid law. Therefore anybody, up to and including Barack H. Obama, who tries to implement it from today until at least an appeals court rules on Vinson's opinion is acting outside lawful authority.
If Obama wants this law to stand, he will have to play the game by the rules as they are, not how he wants the rules to be. That means he will have to obey Judge Vinson's order.
“he will have to play the game by the rules as they are, not how he wants the rules to be.”
I’d like that to be true but remember how the D’s “deemed it passed” contrary to the rules.
