You all are reading this wrong, thanks of course to Politico trying to spin this into a win, which is nearly impossible to do.
The USG asked for a clarification of Vinson’s previous ruling. Vinson clarified it:
You have 7 days to file an appeal of the ruling. If you don’t, then Obamacare is unconstitutional, and the law is void. If you do, then the Supremes will no doubt take it up and the matter will be decided there.
The USG thought they had months. Now they have days.
If the appeal fails, and the Supremes refuse to hear the case, the matter is settled, the law unconstitutional, and the law is void.
Vinson further pointed out that the case has been made, the briefs are written. Change the headers, add the color cover, and submit it. The matter is of the utmost importance to the citizens, and delay is improper.
Vinson basically said, “If you are going to appeal, get on with it.”
Folks, this is a great big WIN. Great big win.
And, if I am not mistaken, the JD must take the appeal to the 11th Circuit, which they did NOT want — they wanted to slow-walk to the 4th Circuit.
