Maxine Waters: ‘I have not decided’ whether or not to call Obamacare mandate ‘a tax’ [AUDIO]
By Nicholas Ballasy | The Daily Caller – 14 hrs ago

**SNIP**

“What I have not decided is whether or not it’s better to call it a tax or a mandate. What I have decided is it’s absolutely necessary that it be paid for, that if we’re going to cover all of these preexisting conditions that I just alluded to, we have to have the income by which to do it and so I have not decided that one may be better than the other,” she told TheDC. “I’m going to think about that and I’m going to review and perhaps I’ll have a different opinion on it later on but right now I’m just happy.”

**SNIP**

“I don’t want us to start projecting out and start to talk about what’s going to happen in the future,” Waters responded. “The first thing we must know and understand is that this independent, very, high positioned branch of government will make their decision based on the deliberations that they’re involved in, based on their experiences, based on their beliefs and we cannot anticipate what they’re decisions are going to be.”

Doesn’t matter. The court called it a tax and it’s A-OK with them. Nothing matters, we are slaves to the state now. Pray.

I have not decided yet whether Maxine is a male or a female gender person.

I used to have to deal with her when I lived in Los Angeles.

Hey Maxine: Call it a suppository and stick it where the sun don’t shine.

Don't tax your little brain over it(pun intended). You could call it a Rutabaga and it would make zero difference in your district since none of your constituents actually PAY TAXES in the first place.

ps: Kindly STOP calling the tax money you and your FedGov cronies steal from working Americans "Income". Income is something one earns and none of you earn a dam thing.

While I think Roberts made the wrong (and foolish) legal decision, writing it up as a tax and having the liberal judges sign it sets up a lot of different legal issues in my mind. The Democrats can try to call it anything they want, but now they will have to content with it as a tax and everything that implies.
