I just love coming home to good news...
Also, I heard that Intrade has the odds of Obamacare being overturned at 80% -- up from 30% this morning!
Train wreck, indeed!

Toobin just threw the Solicitor General under the bus for Obama, because we all know this unconstitutional power grab couldn’t possibly be the problem...

I am reading the transcript now, and the SG should crawl under the bus himself. (Or maybe he know it’s not worth fighting for?)

Watch. If it is overturned, the Administration will claim that its a narrow interpretation and proceed as planned.

Obamacare is indefenisible because they must either defend the mandate as a penalty or a tax, they can't do both.
You can't use a 'tax' as a penalty.

Tobin said that U.S. Solicitor General David Verrilli was woefully unprepared in his defense. Maybe they should find the solicitor general who prepared the original defense. Where is she hiding? Oh, wait, she is sitting in judgment of this law without properly recusing herself from the case.

There was an exchange early in the proceedings between Alito and Verrilli, regarding hypothetical “burial insurance” which included the term “cost shifting.”
That in 2 words is all this is about. The government started the cost shifting and now it’s being used as a justification for socialized medicine.
Cost shifting was the little socialism. Obamacare is the great socialism.

The only thing better than getting Obamacare declared unconstitutional... the knowledge that the Democrats threw away their majority... for nothing ! ROFl

More like a train wreck waiting to happen for America..and the useless waste of time and expense. We would have been in better shape had we done nothing. Stupid progs always know best.Trillions in Debt...Cash for Clunkers..shouvel ready jobs..Fast and Furious...Solandra..high gas prices..strangling regulations...continued unemployment...continued bad economy...GREAT JOB OBAMA!

Scouts blog has a different take on today’s arguments. Kennedy explored both sides of the issue and seemed to find merit in some of the governments arguments.

Forgive me, but after three years of this lying, despicable cabal, I find myself waiting for the other shoe to drop. I can’t believe they’re throwing in the towel this easily.

an exchange early in the proceedings between Alito and Verrilli, regarding hypothetical “burial insurance” which included the term “cost shifting.”I read that just now. Alito made mincemeat of him.

What did the un-ethical one who refused to recuse herself have to say?

I’m cautiously optimistic, but it’s way too early to be doing victory laps, IMHO. Sometimes you can’t tell how SCOTUS will rule from their questions.
