He did well in pointing out the compromises that ensued to pass the Law, and the totality is the sum of all the compromises, and cannot then remove just a single part without ruling "on the whole" that it is Un-Constitutional.

I liked his remarks and the laughter that follows was music to my ears! This legislation is ridiculous. The waivers and gimmicks it took to pass the legislation prove it.
The White House must have cringed at the laughter during the oral arguments. They are laughing at the biggest accomplishment Obama has. I would laugh too if my children did not have to pay for this madness!
