Congress are too lazy and afraid to do their jobs.
I’m sure they’ll find a way to save it.
This just shows that the opposition to Obamacare by the GOP is just show. This is the Don’t Rock The Boat GOP vs. the Let’s Rock this Sucka’ Democrats.
We need a conservative partisan in the White House to undo at least some of the damage Obama has done in 8 years, or at least to make sure that the taxpayer money gushing into left wing organizations gets stopped.
I fear they will screw up the victory.
The basis for this article is fallacious
There are very few Americans that get subsidies.
Most of America gets health insurance at work or from Medicare
The proposed strategy is to allow the subsidies, but remove the mandate. Obama would veto such a bill, and the GOP could then blame Obama for blocking the restoration of the subsidies.
My proposal would be to keep the mandate, but reduce the penalty to a tax of $2 per person. Obama would still probably veto such a bill, but he would look even stupider.
John Roberts, aka traitor, appears to be bought and sold. I doubt he will go against his masters. He will contort himself into multiple pretzels showing why the language really meant something it clearly doesn't. Again.
Yeah, free money is always popular.
...and there is how every republic slides into a dictatorship. People love "free stuff" as long as someone else is paying for it. A willful ignorance of economic cause and effect always ends in a dictatorship.
And so the ongoing psychological warfare campaign against the gullible (but well compensated by lobbyists allied with the ‘RATS) Boehner and McConnell continues.
>>Republicans in Congress are worried the Supreme Court will hand them a major headache this month if it rules against the federal health insurance exchanges<<
Good grief. If true, the republican party needs to become the third party.
I’m am sick of the Pubs always going on the defensive for problems caused by the libs. They need to get a united message and hammer home the fact that such a decision would be exclusively the Dems fault for forcing a vote on a bill nobody had read or had a chance to study and debate. If the supreme court gets rid of federal subsidies it will be because of the plain language of the law. A law the only the dems passed. A law that was forced on the country without a chance to read or study. The dems own this and the pubs need to make that clear every time they open their mouth.
Democrats passed that terrible law without a single republican vote and with no republican input, in most cases without reading the law. A democrat signed that terrible law without reading it and with no conservative support. If the Supreme Court actually reads the law and rules that the law no one else read means what it says, how would that be a problem for republicans?
My preference: Low information voters have short memories, while involved conservatives have long memories. The GOP should let Obamacare die. Freedom is more important than a temporary hissy fit from liberal losers who will have forgotten long before the next election so even our most shallow RINO insiders don't have to worry about losing their cushy jobs for doing their jobs.
No problem while Obama was in Germany, he stated in an interview “The Supreme Court should have never taken the case as ObamaCare is working”.
ObamaCare is working Yeah right i is working so damn good that i got a $6500.00 medical bill for an emergency surgery because medicare denied payment. I had no choice, either have the surgery or be planted 6 feet under!
Who in the hell is john toyllu and if he can't spell his name why would anyone care what he says?
I've seen this same crap in every nook and cranny about how afraid the pubbies are of winning the court case.
Bullship.
Follow the money. Are they are invested monetarily in Obamacare?
It is only a headache because they don’t want it to go away. There are two many secure votes in maintaining obamacare. With obamacare or any other version of socialized medicine, health care is the only subject a politician need run on and it always favors the incumbent who runs on tweaking it for this constituency and that.

The media will declare a ruling that ends the subsidies as a crisis. The Republican’s have a huge opportunity to present a workable solution to the manmade health care finance disaster. Will cowardly leadership blow it through fear of being blamed for a few socialists losing their free stuff? Of course they will.
You can bet the media has already started planning a deluge of sob stories, claims that people got cancer because of it, hospitals closing, etc., and how to use this to promote Democrats. Smarter republicans would get ahead of the curve and pretend to be competent and principled.
