MAYBE??!!??

Ya think??

We've been beating the tip of the iceberg to death, all the other criminal government abuses.

This one is the rest of the iceberg, and the longest long term injury to the republic.

Both in terms of precedence for legislative abuses, and for the "fascistification" of the country, as it relates to private business and individual freedom generally..

When all three branches of the federal government (the Executive, the Legislative and the Judicial) behave in an illegal and unconstitutional manner, what remedy is left to We the People?

I assume that is a rhetorical question

They (Reid) took a legitimate House-originated budget/funding bill and GUTTED it and added PPACA. The conference committee passed it back to Pelosi who deemed it “Passed”.

Like it or not, the bill number originated in the House. How they got there and by what outrageous machinations are immaterial. Our illustrious Supreme Court will rule it such.

There isn’t any ‘there’ here. You don’t like it and I don’t like it but that’s what it is.

I can’t tell you what I think what should happen to DC.

I would be surprised if SCOTUS agrees to hear the case

The RATS had full control of the House and Senate, why would they need to play games with a house bill to pass owebamacare?

That part never made sense to me.

Why did it take four years for this obvious challenge seriously and vigorously to be pursued?

Well, in the matter of "standing," and the litmus test that to have "standing" injury must be demonstrated, the injury was to the House, and the RICO violation by Nancy Pelosi et al made it possible to ignore the permanent damage done to the carefully crafted separation of powers and check and balances in the Constitution. That it was either seditious, treasonous, or perjurious should have a bearing on the question.

Aside from Justice Roberts declaring Obamacare to be a tax (HINT! HINT!) there are more condemning issues at play for Pelosi, as speaker. The validity of Obama's qualifications as a candidate for president was made entirely on her opinion, not facts; and her refusal to assert the constitutional enumerated powers of the House clearly establishes that she was contemptuous of her fiduciary duties to the American people AND the clear requirements of the Constitution, an inferior intellect, or a criminal bent.
Or all of the above.

So I repeat...WHY DID THIS TAKE 4 YEARS???

You are exactly correct. Hate it as we will, we are forced to eat this sh*t sandwich.

But then there is Ted Cruz....and there is also my tagline.

Thank you so much Kaslin, for finding and posting this concise and complete narrative describing the disastrous genesis of the ACA, aka Obamacare.

I have been searching for just such a most needed historical reference for my records and for future use.

Bring the 2014 elections ON!

I agree. No way the Supremes find it unconstitutional on these grounds.

That's it right there in one nutshell. We have traitors in every branch of the Government.
