Dont worry: John Roberts will rewrite the law and all will be well. This ars hat is mentally ill.

The Court isn’t going to do anything to endanger Obamacare. Even in unlikely event it does, Republicans in Congress will make sure nothing changes.

Well that is a change from when he implemented Obamacare without the approval of the state legislature.

Even if states set up their own exchanges in the wake of a court ruling for the plaintiffs, those exchanges would not be eligible for subsidies. Section 1311 of the ACA specifies that the state exchanges have to be established by January 1, 2014. Also, no planning grant money for the establishment of exchanges can be paid out after January 1, 2015, so there is no incentive for the states to set up a very expensive technological monster that will cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

>>Governors across the country have been clear: If the Supreme Court strikes down the Obama executive overreach, we will not bail out Obama at the expense of the American people, Walker wrote in an op-ed for CNN.com on Wednesday.<<
I’m not down on Boehner and McConnell like most here are, but I will say this: The GOP needs leadership that can make a case accurately and succinctly.
“We will not bail out Obama at the expense of the American people” is an excellent example of what I mean.
Both Boehner and McConnell seem incapable of making such clarifying, and motivating, remarks.

Good for him. Read further on. He wants Congress to rescue Obamacare for him.
To: V_TWIN
The irony in that is delicious. Indeed, especially in light of this quote further down: "Walker said he hopes Obama and Republicans can find a way to ensure those impacted are transitioned appropriately post-Obamacare."
So he won't bail out Obamacare. He'll expect Congress to do it.

He did? Does Wisconsin have a state exchange?

Didn’t know that. Well, that changes everything as far as how subsidies could be reinstated.

The only remedy, if the court were to deny the federal subsidies, would be if the court at the same time declared that date to be null and void, or declared some new date to take effect in the wake of its ruling.

would they go out of their way to do that? That’d be rewriting the law.

No. Here's an article that I found interesting.
Link to Washington Post Some of the issues I have with Walker are to do with jobs and salaries. Wisconsin is 50th in new business start ups, 48th in salaries, 40 in job creation. Then there is a projected 2 billion dollar budget deficit. <> There are ethics issues as well. This month his legislature removed him as Chairman of the WEDC, an agency that he created to replace the state Commerce Dept. Since it's beginning WEDC has paid out $975 million tax dollars and has a net loss of jobs of over -7,000 jobs, losing 2 jobs for each job created. 60% of that money went to Walker donors. An Audit and other evidence has been turned over to the prosecutors office to determine if "Pay to Play is involved.

I can’t imagine any court ever rewriting the law. ;)

I would hope that a delegation of authority is an affirmative action, not a default position based on inaction. A state cannot have its authority taken away because it chooses to not do something.
That's like saying that the president can recess Congress to make recess appointments because Congress chose not to recess.
