The political left and this president don’t care what the law is.

How can the rest of the law remain in effect since it did not have a Severability Clause? ?

How can they rule the balance of the law remains in effect? My understanding is the law was written without a severability(?) clause.

I will celebrate, but will still mourn that this is even a discussion in our once great Republic.

Sucks. They say the rest can stay. They are saying that severabilty clause is implied even if not specifically written.

Despite the headline, it’s not good news as long as they ignore the problem of no severability clause.

Great news! So, does it even have to go to SCOTUS if yet another Judge says it's unconstitutional? Is it time to call the hearse? . . or is it yet another 'not so fast'? . .

The Obama administration has defended the provision as constitutional.

This is like cats professing insight into the lives of dogs.

but also ruled that the rest of the wide-ranging law could remain in effect.

So, although the rest of the law could remain in effect, isn't it also dead, based on not having funds flowing from the uninsured? I'm thinking that the numbers would change to costing trillions more.

The Appeals Court for the 11th Circuit, based in Atlanta, found that Congress exceeded its authority by requiring Americans to buy coverage, but also ruled that the rest of the wide-ranging law could remain in effect.

But the Court cannot unconstitutionally add a severance clause to the act where there was none and rule, unconstitutionally, that the rest of the law could remain in effect.

Obama care won’t work without the individual mandate. Great news!

How can the court rule the rest of it is constitutional. Congress neglected to include the separability clause in the law. The entire friggin’ law is now void.
