To make the point that idiocy was the name of the game.

But that’s not what the reasoning Roberts has given. The mandate “may reasonably be characterized as a tax,” although in actuality it wasn’t a tax before Roberts “characterized” it.

What Roberts may effectively be saying is that it's not up to him to redner a judgement on an idiotic law that was deliberately vague on any number of items. it wasn't like he's ruling on some refined point of law dating back 200 years. The stupid thing was passed two years ago. Let Congress figure out what the law says, or doesn't say.

Look what happened with the Stolen Valor Act. The court decision striking it down was one of the most pointless decisions ever handed down -- because it was such a silly law that the U.S. Justice Department had stopped even attempting to enforce it anyway.
