Napolitano tells Newsmax that the longstanding precedent of state regulation of the healthcare industry makes the new federal regulations that much more problematic.
Which is exactly what I've been saying since day 1..
Had the Democrats following the GOP plan, allowing insurance companies to cross the state line, THEN the federal government might have had jurisdictional grounds to pass such a bill..
This isn't going to happen any time soon, and most likely at all.

Until then, there would be no legal case that individuals had been actually harmed by the law. Moreover, Napolitano says it takes an average of four years for a case to work its way through the various federal courts the final hearing that's expected to come before the Supreme Court.
"You're talking about 2018, which is eight years from now, before it is likely the Supreme Court will hear this," he says.
"But the courts have long sided with the federal government in cases involving the Constitution's commerce clause.
"Let me put it this way, this is going to be a hard argument for the attorneys general to make," says Professor Robert Nagel, who teaches constitutional law at the University of Colorado at Boulder. "
This Napolitano, according to author and judicial analyst Andrew P. Napolitano.
I for one see we are in a big problem with Obama... he hasn't a clue about the Cons or any thing in particular American for that matter. Even if he is American, by birth he has no idea about us. He may as well have been born on the moon if you ask me.
One minute he was born from the darkness, the next instant a senator with no proven anything, for 176 days, and as a unknown somehow came into votes which got him elected.
So far nothing makes any sence, and so far all he has done is win the Gun Saleman award for the year.
I don't care if the guy is orange, but i do want a guy that knows something about how to run a large, very large corp. As it is this country is a ship at sea with a fool for a captian.
Judge Napolitano of Faux News....don't make me laugh.
Thats the jist of your argument? You cant dispute one thing stated?

Actually the Supreme Court can hear the constitutional challenges rather soon. Most likely within a 1 year timeframe. They can expedite the challenge due to the number of cases involved, the seriousness of the matter, and to stop different federal courts from trying the same case all across the country, and just lump them all together..

I've seen the link before. Soon as you tell me how healthcare insurance cross the state line, I'll agree that the commerce clause holds relevance..
