A federal judge on Tuesday refused to dismiss a case that could fatally cripple the Obamacare health insurance law.
The Affordable Care Act forbids the federal government from enforcing the law in any state that opted out of setting up its own health care exchange, according to a group of small businesses whose lawsuit got a key hearing Monday in federal court.
The Obama administration, according to their lawsuit, has ignored that language in the law, enforcing all of its provisions even in states where the federal government is operating the insurance marketplaces on the error-plagued Healthcare.gov website.
Thirty-six states chose not to set up their exchanges, a move that effectively froze Washington, D.C. out of the authority to pay subsidies and other pot-sweeteners to convince citizens in those states to buy medical insurance. But the IRS overstepped its authority by paying subsidies in those states anyway, say the businesses and their lawyers.

I sense that ObamacareZilla...will fall over and fatally bang its head on the empire state building before any suits against it can be heard.
SNAOU = Situation normal all Obama’d UP.
SNAWWU = Situation normal all Wee Wee’d Up.
Since when has a court opinion deterred this pathetic little diktator?
Meh. John Roberts will again pull something out of his ass to affirm the law.
Why do we have to rely on the UK press to get these stories?
LOL...so those stupid GOP governors who jumped on Obama’s broken down gravy train will have subjected their people to these penalties, while the 37 smart governors will have provided exemptions for their states. Nice going, chumps.
Perhaps that's why we haven't heard of thousands having their policies canceled in Louisiana and Texas, like those who live in Floriduh and other states have...
BWWWAAAAAAH HAAA HAAAAAAAAAA HAAA HAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Supreme Court: Obama is Kaliph. There are no States, only the Obama Kaliphate.
Think I’m joking?
How high up is this federal judge?
When the heck did Bobby change his name to David?
Chief Weasel Roberts either rules the way Obama wants, or bad things will happen to his family. It’s the Chicago way.
A review of internal architectural diagrams obtained by the AP revealed the system's complexity. Insurance applicants have a host of personal information verified, including income and immigration status. The system connects to other federal computer networks, including ones at the Social Security Administration, IRS, Veterans Administration, Office of Personnel Management and the Peace Corps.".......... Insiders who worked on US health website describe high stress, complaints about major problems
We haven’t lost our healthcare, at least not yet. But my friend just got the letter she will be losing hers. We live in Texas.
What part of a dictatorship do you not recognize? Whatever the judge says means nothing to the idiots in DC. They will do what they want to. Osluma is now saying the Supreme Court has no jurisdiction over him or his actions.
enough of this lawyerly bs,
Get a rope.
