– Gov. Jay Nixon said Thursday that his administration is beginning to review the implications of the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in favor of the federal health care law.

“This ruling has significant complexities and implications for families, health care providers and insurers in our state,” Nixon said. “Here in Missouri, I’m committed to working collaboratively with citizens, businesses, medical providers and the legislature to move forward in a way that works best for families in our state.”

KEYWORDS:
It will be very interesting to see what Governor Nixon does. Although a Democrat, he has been governing (for the most part) quite moderate-to-conservatively in his term. He hasn't really been walking in-step with his party and he has also been working hard to bring jobs into our state. He doesn't appear to be governing as the radical liberal that he was portrayed to be back in the last election cycle.

Again, it will be interesting to see what happens. He appears to be greatly distancing himself from Obama and he even said:

"“I don’t think the federal government should be telling people what they have to buy as far as private insurance,” Nixon said. “That has been my position throughout. I don’t think that is the proper role of the federal government.”

Another weasel. If he had integrity, he’d change his registration today. He’s playing Missourians as fools. Bob

Speaking of Missouri, that nasty hag Claire McCaskill, who stood up at a townhall defending Obamacare and asked the crowd, “Don’t you trust me??” should be called out for now wanting to avoid being seen with Obama at the DNC. SHE supported Obamacare, SHE voted for it, SHE defended it.. and now she’s trying to hide from it. Please, Missouri... don’t let her off the hook!!!!
