    I love the fact that GOP turns on itself... just like any other evil force no?

    No doubt thousands from Republicans.

    If they ever stopped to think, they wouldn't be Republicans. Republicans should be thanking Roberts, but their party leads them by fear and smear, so most Republicans won’t stop to figure this out. Why do you think John Roberts ruled as he did? It was a clever, calculated move.

    1) Had Roberts ruled in favor of the Republicans, it would have energized the Democrats right before an election. Instead, his ruling energized the Republicans.

    2) By clearly denoting the fine as a “tax” instead of a commerce clause matter from the bench, Roberts opened an avenue for the Republicans to be able to overturn it. Only a simple majority is needed in Congress to change taxes. Revenue bills cannot be filibustered.

    Remember, Republicans are the pawns of Wall Street, so how do the insurance companies feel about Obamacare? They don’t mind the pre-existing thing and caps deal and all the other little provisions, as long as they get 30 million new customers’ premiums to offset the losses. What they don’t like is that in four years the states can kick them out and replace them with single payer. That will be the death of their industry and they know it.

    Of course, Obamacare is a great thing for this country, and those on the right haven’t figured that out either.

    Not any that I know of...

    He basically said for the people to get out and vote Obama out if you do not like this overreach.

    Roberts said this.....read between the lines....

    Then he told President Obama and his kleptocrats in Congress that they can have their health care law, but they cannot keep lying about it. A tax is a tax and they are liars if they call it anything else. And they just stuck the crippled American taxpayer with one of the biggest, broadest, most regressive tax-hikes in history — and during a deep recession!
