Fox News.com ^ | June 25, 2015

While Chief Justice John Roberts delivered a blow to ObamaCare foes with a majority opinion upholding subsidies, he backed up the law's opponents on one point: The language in the Affordable Care Act was kind of a mess.

It was poorly written so he decided to beef it up a bit?

We are really screwed.

As I warned those who naively believed that SCOTUS would do the right thing, here, a few times in the past few weeks; Roberts is STILL blackmailed into betraying those who believe in the Constitution and freedom.

And so, once again rather than sending it back to be properly written by those who have the duty to write laws, he ‘pretzels himself’ to ‘rewrite’ it for them.

Welcome to post-Constitutional 0bamerica.

So if a Law is poorly written we can just assign it to the supreme court and they will re-write it instead of nullifying it and forcing congress to fix the damned thing......

So NOW if congress passes a law saying we need to kill people whose names start with J, the supreme court can clarify that they only mean that we wanna kill people with the first name of Jack and Jill????

I fell so great about our separation of powers right now...

Imagine if it had gone the way it should have (Scalia’s dissent becomes the majority decision). It would be (and should be) up to Congress to correct a law that they wrote - and that would’t happen with the current Congress. So - Obama’s minions had to have this decision go this way or Obamacare would become toothless. So - somehow they convinced Roberts and Kennedy (the other four are mindless minions, they were easy) to vote for this tortured logic - they have to have something on them to get them to put aside their intelligence.

...and since it’s poorly written, they can rule by fiat?

That’s what you just told them Mr Roberts.

Since the government no longer feels it has to follow the law, do I still have too?
