There is either a severability clause contained in the legislation or there isnt, the need to have one is NOT in question. it is the ONLY way that you preserve the whole by getting rid of the offending portions. Perhaps as their last act, the Pelosi Congress will "deem" the health care law to have included the severability clause.

Sarbanes-Oxley didn’t have a severability clause either but the SCOTUS allowed the constitutional parts to stand anyway.
