It’s so good to have an honest judge!

The battle got “escalated” when Pelosi, Reid, and Obama decided to ram it down the throats of the tax-paying sector of the U.S. population against passionate opposition, including marching in the street.

But an aide said he was determined to issue his opinion in the course of Monday on the suit filed on March 23, 2010, just hours after Obama signed the reform into law.

Does anybody know what this means?

Amendment IX: The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

Amendment X: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Words mean something to a judge. Finally. That's nice, particularly if we can rely on the last two parts of the Bill of Rights . . . rather than the Declaration of Independence:

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

I think it just means that the judge plans to issue his ruling today.

The later date(March 23, 2010) is the date suit was filed. At preliminary hearings the judge said he planned to rule this month. This is the last day of the month and his clerk confirmed that the judge’s intentions haven’t changed.

It was intended to mean:

...an aide said he was determined to issue his opinion [today]. [The] suit [was] filed just hours after Obama signed the reform into law.

But it is hard to read because it sounds like...

...an aide said he was determined to issue his opinion ... on the suit ...just hours after Obama signed the reform into law.

I probably should have put a question mark in the title like this:

[judge to rule Obamacare unconstitutional?]

Because the judge’s ruling has not actually been released yet.

[The healthcare overhaul, a cornerstone of Obama’s presidency, aims to expand health insurance to cover millions of uninsured Americans while also curbing costs]

That may be it’s “aim” but it won’t be it’s result!

This is why the liberal were screaming about the House repeal. I think that makes it much more likely the USSC will overturn the law. Don’t think it is lost on the USSC, that this law was crammed down our throats over widespread opposition.

I wonder if the Supreme Court will in fact rule against. If so, Obama will have a HUGE tempy tantrum.

If they do, Obama will say, “It is unfortunate judges are able to legistate against the will of the people.. bla bla bla...” and the total irony will be lost on no one.

Liberals aways try to project their own guilt on Republicans. It’s called Psychological Projection.
