Stunning.

Kennedy went right and Roberts went left? That's surprising.

And are the liberals on Fark and the op-eds around America going to stop complaining about how biased and partisan the Supreme Court is now?

Heh. The CNN news flash on my iPhone said they struck it down.

DEWEY DEFEATS OBAMACARE

Holy....shiatsnacks.

Really?

Seriously?

My God. I swore that thing was dead.

Ok, look. This is simple.

If someone can't afford to stay competitive, why do they deserve to compete?

If someone can't afford to keep working, why do they deserve to work?

If someone can't afford to stay healthy, why do they deserve health?

If someone can't afford to stay alive, why do they deserve to live?

You get what you pay for. If you can't afford to pay, well... I suppose it's polite to pretend that it was nice knowing you, but you aren't much use anymore, are you?

And if you disagree with all of the above statements, great! Politics takes money. If someone can't afford a lobbyist or a campaign, why do they deserve to have an opinion?

TIKIMAN87: Obama has just destroyed this country.

The country was already pretty messed up. That's why I always throw my cigarette butts out the window.

Good.

NowhereMon: Suck it cons, suck it long and hard

I think the conservatives won on this one. Congress can't make you do whatever under the commerce clause.

Faux News talking heads esssssploded

This is just further evidence of the Obama Junta. Chief Justice Roberts is a member of the secret society of government officials hell bent on turning America into an effective nation.

Masso: I couldn't believe everything in there survived intact. I expect some clauses here or there to get struck down. Especially didn't think the court would say "fark you, it's a tax, not interstate commerce, biatches. OK, pass".

The Medicaid expansion is the only thing that apparently got struck down.

And commence the Republican butthurt.....NOW.

AmazinTim: NowhereMon: Suck it cons, suck it long and hard

You must mean suck it everyone, now we'll never fix health care. We'll just keep patching scabby band-aids onto the issue, just like this bill.

I was really hoping it would get struck down, then force a complete overhaul single-payer plan. Make health insurance companies obsolete completely.

Oh well. Maybe in a few decades we can join the rest of the civilized world.

You KNOW Romney is going to beat his chest about Massachusetts health care law now.

Oh, and abandon his base?

HAHAHHA.....your move. Rmoney.

That officially counts as a 'holy shiat' moment. I was convinced they were going to strike it down 5-4 and I had a 'SCOTUS is hopelessly corrupt' rant all ready to go. Now what am I gonna do with the rest of my day?

Booyah!

I'm STUNNED.

Would trade mandate for public option any day.

Roberts quotes Ben Franklin in ruling: "Nothing in life is guaranteed except death and taxes" Epic troll commences.

Interesting. Evidently they went with the "it's a tax" argument.

What's really sad is that rather than look at whether or not this thing is actually good or bad, people are more concerned about the democrat vs republican aspect. Yep - that always goes well...

unlikely: This is a surprise. I honestly expected the 6-3 conservative court to rule more in favor of "fark the poors because they smell"

That basically what this decision was. PPACA provides some benefit to regular people but it mostly gives insurance companies another decade or two to keep farking everyone over.

I am stunned Roberts did this.

So much for that promise to not raise taxes on the middle class.
