I put 12 million: illegal immigrants, crackheads, unemployable bastards, lazy slugs on the public dole, guests on the Jerry Springer show, 170,000 people in California's 33 penal establishments alone, leftovers from Katrina, half of Mexico, some of the House, and most of the Senate".

Apparently that wasn't an acceptable answer.


too funny, and unfortunately accurate as well.

yep, and if they do then what the appellate court ruled will stand. however since there is conflicting rulings from appellate courts, it is quite likely that the case will be heard by the SC.

The Atlanta Apellate court ruled that the rest of the law could stand. The Florida court said if one part is bad, it is all bad. I just cannot see any court allowing Obamacare to stand. Of course I was sure that court was going to rule against seizure of private property for private use but they ruled against Kelo so nobody can say for sure. I just hope if the rule against PART of Obamacare that they will flush it all down.
Without everybody (except illegals) "Buying" health care insurance, the whole plan will fall on it's own weight because without the money there is no other funding to support the rest of it.

I always thought Obama made the wrong decision to waste his early political capital on a healthcare bill that would never have passed the Constitutionality test. I think he should have used it on something more productive and beneficial like repealing the Controlled substance act (ie ending the war on drugs) or a new Manhattan Project for fusion energy.
