Republican strategist Karl Rove appeared devastated on Thursday as he was forced to declared that the Supreme Court had given President Barack Obama a “boost” when they refused to strike down his health care reform law. “It would be an extraordinary step,” Rove, appearing to be partially in denial, told Fox News anchor Bill Hemmer just after the court’s decision was handed down. “I mean, the court tosses it out on the grounds that it was sold to the country on, that the government had the right to compel everybody to purchase insurance as a condition of being alive and instead upholds it on the basis that the administration was unwilling to make at the time, which is this is a tax.” “If this is actually the decision, it’s a boost for the president,” he added softly. “But it doesn’t make the controversy go away. In fact, it probably enhances the controversy.” The Supreme Court in a 5-4 decision on Thursday ruled that the Affordable Care Act — including the mandate that individuals be forced to buy insurance — was constitutional.

That's correct. Everything the SCOTUS railed against is what Romney did in Massachusetts....;}
"Most people prefer to believe that their leaders are just and fair, even in the face of evidence to the contrary, because once a citizen acknowledges that the government under which he lives is lying and corrupt, the citizen has to choose what he or she will do about it. To take action in the face of corrupt government entails risks of harm to life and loved ones. To choose to do nothing is to surrender one's self-image of standing for principles. Most people do not have the courage to face that choice. Hence, most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker but only to give moral cowards an excuse not to think at all." Michael Rivero
States can experiment as much as they want to ! Look at california ! Arnold 4 years ago was going to have free healthcare paid for by a sales tax increase !
If you ... don't use exclamation points --- you should't be typeing ! Commas - semicolons - question marks are for girlie boys !
2007? Cheap bastard...buy the newest edition, you are missing out.
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Look at california ! Arnold 4 years ago was going to have free healthcare paid for by a sales tax increase ! And how'd that turn out? Can a state do an Israel? No, because then the USSA would intervene saying Singe Payer/VA is unlawful....;}
