PENSACOLA, Fla.—The Justice Department asked a federal judge in Florida on Thursday to tell states that they must continue to enact the Obama administration's health care overhaul despite the judge's ruling that the law is unconstitutional. In a motion to clarify, administration attorneys asked U.S. District Judge Roger Vinson to make clear that states cannot ignore the new health care laws while his ruling is being appealed. At stake, according to the government's motion, are provisions of the new law that would create chaos if ignored by the states.

Let’s try to understand this. The Administration can understand a 2,100 page puzzle book of a healthcare law but can’t understand the 78 pages criticizing it?

That’s right idiot. Pi$$ off the judge. He gave Obie the opportunity to do the right thing. They keep a$$ing around and somebody will be going to jail.

I can think of a few people. Mr. Smith, Wesson, Glock, and Winchester.

I’m confused, If they are so worried about rulings, why has the Obama administration refused to allow off shore drilling against that judges order? Hmmmmmm......

He will not go along with this. He already stated his decision was a de facto ban to implement any part of Obamacare.

I don’t either. They’re bullying the judge to find them in contempt. [It’s an overt threat to the Judge]. It’s impeachment time. NOW!!!

There was no grace period. Obamacare is unconstituional and the fed. gubbermint is supposed to follow the law.

No damned reason why he should.

If they want a stay, then they should appeal it to a higher court and ask the judges there to issue a stay.

Or are they afraid of what might happen if they appeal?

On a more disturbing note Bacchman reported in a radio interview that the insidious rats, Pelosi, Ried and Obama placed Obamacare in the mandatory spending pool so that it cannot be changed or defunded and will go into effect in its entirety come 2012. She said the only cuts they can make right now are half of 17 percent of the total budget so she made a plea to the public that it is imperative that we change over the senate as well as winning the presidency in order to change the damage done.

Gee, wouldn't an alleged Constitutional Law Professor (yes, we all know that's a myth) know what the judge mean?

I have a hard time believing that, considering Obamacare is no longer law. The republicans need to defund every pet project and strip the executive branch from handling any monies it’s stolen from the American taxpayers. Shut down the government and eliminate every Alaphabet group agency, police all the loose stimulus monies......if that doesn’t do the trick. IMPEACH OBAMA.
