Kraut's conclusion pretty much nails it....
Obamacare is now essentially upheld. There’s only one way it can be overturned. The same way it was passed — elect a new president and a new Congress. That’s undoubtedly what Roberts is saying: Your job, not mine. I won’t make it easy for you.
But what worries me is.... How will Romney care be any different?

We are screwed.

Then who needs the Constitution? Let Congress vote on whatever they want and if they want to bring back slavery, take away guns, etc just let them and then we could vote them out again.

You’re right on Krauthammer’s take on Robert’s decision. But I’m not sure you’re right on Romney. He’s already come out and said he would ask for revocation if elected. If he goes back on that, he nullifies his most important campaign promise. Even for Romney, I have trouble seeing that happen.

That is ridiculous logic; it will be extremely difficult to overturn, and if already found constitutional then the overturning of it may be found unconstitutional - whether or not something is constitutional shouldn’t swing back & forth depending on how the political winds are blowing. Before anyone applies logic to this, consider what happened today: our government is no different than the Red Chinese government, and the “degrees” by which we were separating are fast disappearing. We have one-party rule, posing as two parties; it is an absolute hoax.

Sorry Boss but you are wrong on many parts.
1. Now Obama canot issue get out of jail free cards to his dirty union thugs he must get permission from Congress

2. ERs for years have had to eat people with no insurance now even the illegals have to pay for insurance.

3. Now we can get Hospital districts off of our property tax rolls

4. Now the young and nieave have to pay for insurance.

The bad side is small business employees forget about raises from Jan 1 2012 onwards.......

Well to overcome filibusters in the Senate we'd need 60 Senators willing to vote to repeal. Right now we have 47, right.

Anyone think we can get to 60? Anyone? Mr. Bueller?

OK, I didn't think so. Anyone think Mitch McConnel with end the filibuster rule? Anyone??

OK. So, it's going to go into full force in the 2012 2014 session after which it will be far too ingrained to end.

Game, Set, Match to the winner: Obamacare!

Ecc12:13-14

Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this [is] the whole [duty] of man.

For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether [it be] good, or whether [it be] evil.

Since when did 2 evils make a good? Twins in thinking, signing legislation, etc. Trading one d socialist for an r socialist does not compute.

When bad seed is sowed on bad soil it produces a bad crop. For all those who complain of Snowe, Graham, Collins and the former Specter this is what you will get if you go ahead and drink the GOP koolaide in Nov.

No. His job is to find it constitutional or unconstitutional. It was clearly unconstitutional. He went out of his way to do what he did.
