So now the smartest people in the room are telling Obama's not going to be re-elected. Nice.

It doesn't matter who wins in Nov. The Court just said the US Congress can require us to buy ANYTHING. It's just a matter of time until good little libs get into office and begin requiring us to buy all kinds of new "taxes".

House Votes Down Catastrophic Care : Action to Repeal Portion of Medicare Plan Spurred by Protests Over Surtax

Comments0 WASHINGTON — The House voted overwhelmingly Wednesday to repeal Medicare's catastrophic care program, which Congress had enacted just 16 months ago as a major expansion of health benefits for the elderly.

The 360-66 vote culminated a determined protest campaign by retired persons who were outraged by the special surtax levied on the elderly to provide the bulk of the money for the new benefits.

That was October 05, 1989. Rats controlled Congress. Medicare recipients were outraged. Obamacare affects all adults. Don't be surprised by a tidal wave in November. The rats recruited many so called moderates and centrists to take the Congress in 2006 in many so called "red" states. All of the rat senators up in 2012 and 2014 voted for Obamacare.

Any pubbie who wants to increase taxes will be primaried. Rats won't be passing any laws for some time to come, if ever.

P.S. Red is the color ofthe left.

You missed my point.

The Court just gave Congress unlimited tax power.

They can force us to buy anything as long as they call it a “tax”.

Let me give you a parallel.

Our government sold guns to Mexican drug gangs. We haul in Eric Holder and confront him. He smiles and tells us “Don’t worry: not all of the guns have been used in gun crimes.”

But the gangs still have the guns!

Same thing here.

Yes - our Congress can repeal this.

And the next Congress can make us buy Chevy Volts, solar panels on our homes, bottles of wine from Pelosi’s vineyard.

As long as they call it a “tax” they have the court’s blessing.

There is NOTHING stopping them.

Our Republic is dead.

Yeah - you’d better be real careful who you vote for from now on. You vote wrong ONE TIME and we’re all screwed.
