The SCOTUS Just Woke Up a Sleeping Giant (Vanity)
June 28, 2012 | pistolpackinpapa

Posted on 06/28/2012 7:54:12 AM PDT by pistolpackinpapa

One Republican Congressman, whom I believe they said was from Arizona, just said the same thing I said after this Ruling:

"Today, the Supreme Court awakened a sleeping giant. This changes the Election drastically." This has so angered people and will cause many to realize, this is no small matter. This is no game. We MUST Elect Mitt Romney, and a GOP House and Senate on November 6, 2012 so this ObamaCare Mess, our new Tax the Supremes gave us today, can be repealed and totally dismantled.

I believe this "victory" for the Obama Thug Brigade in the White House, will be short-lived. This will fire up people who were somewhat lackadaisical about this Election. We have to get the Marxist out of the White House.

It ain't over Mr. President. WE'RE JUST GETTING WARMED UP!!!

"Awakened a Sleeping Giant"?? That's nice but quite naive.

This ruling has guaranteed Obama's re-election. You can count on it. It will energize his campaign like nothing else. "See?? I'm looking after your interests and the Supreme Court agrees with me."

Don't think of this as a line in the sand or a "jump the shark moment". Think of this as just one more rivet in the liberal project known as "America". It goes back decades, perhaps centuries. There are few true conservatives left. Lots of neocons, like Bush and Cheney who's been publicly rejoicing over the "marriage" of his lesbian daughter but few who truly understand the meaning of the word as it applies to government, the military and the people.

This is not the end of America. It's just the beginning of the end.

Look forward to punitive measures against the Catholic Church for its mean refusal to pay for everyone's fornication and then an onward push into the redefinition of marriage and draconian penalties for those who refuse to be accommodating towards sexual deviance.

This will not end well.

“We're left with Romney's promise to strike this down if elected.”

Last night on Greta, Michelle Bachmann said that if any or all of this is upheld,they (the House and she) will work to repeal it.

What will happen now to all those suits against the government by the states over the legality of this law? Will they just be automatically be thrown out?

As Mark Levin pointed out last night, it's a shame that one person (Roberts in this case) has to power to inflict harm on the entire United States.

“But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.”

The SCOTUS just made me a liar, and a betrayer of my own principle! I said in 2006 I would NEVER vote for another rino and meant it with everything in my being. I'm sorry, this ruling is a tragedy of biblical proportion, I can not let stand.

This has to be changed and the only way to do it is ENSURE enough republicans get elected to clean house...even if it means slick RINOS!

At least Romney loves the country and capitalism!

No, even FOX News said it was struck down. Then the Supremes said: “....but only under the Commerce Clause. It can stand as a tax.” So, cut radio dude some slack.

You are personally so much the problem with this country. Do you really think the father of socialized medicine is going to repeal Obama care. You stupid people.... You get what you deserve. Sadly, the rest of us have to live with your stupidity too. You vote for the devil’s each and every time and each and every time you think that is going to fix something. I agree with the old saying that you just can’t fix stupid.

look, the Giant may be pretty helpless and voiceless

but the Giant has a wallet and the Giant can decide here, today, to show Congress the effects on our economy of paying more taxes

http://www.cbo.gov/sites/default/files/cbofiles/attachments/March2012Baseline.pdf

the government is not going to get an extra $500 billion in “revenue” (taxes) next year and an extra $1.2 TRILLION in new taxes by 2015, by taxing “the rich”

every household needs to become its own small business
save for next years increased tax bill, start now
pay off debt
evaluate every purchase with great care

I pray that all the FReepers who hate Romney,

Don’t hate Romney but he started this entire mess with Romneycare which is what Obama based his Obamacare on....How you think Romney is better than obama is a mystery. They are both twins politically. It is you guys who should be voting for conservatives like Virgil Goode...He is truly our only hope. Romney won’t change a thing on Obamacare because he believes it is best for the country like he thought Romneycare was best for Mass...Get that through your skull.

I talked with a Republican friend on the Hill and he said that Romney will issue waivers to all 50 states on January 20, 2013, effectively nullifying Obamacare without needing 60 senators to agree to invoke cloture.

This will cause the Senate democrats to, at a minimum, negotiate the remaining parts of the bill. Taxes will be wrapped up in this as well.

Will Romney breathe fire as Gingrich would have?? Doubtful. He’ll probably talk like Mitch McConnell, who could have stopped Obamacare in the senate but didn’t, and every republican followed the “leader.”

Well maybe this will get the GOP up off their duffs and energized for action. We just have to pray Mitt will keep his word and repeal this monstrosity.

I pray that all the FReepers who hate Romney, will realize that they hate the anti-Capitalist, Socialist mind-set that has taken over this nation, even more and will PLEASE not stay home or waste their vote on a 3rd Party Candidate but will vote for Romney and GOP candidates down the ballot on Novermber 6th.

AMEN, pistolpackinpapa! ObamaCare MUST be repealed.

Romney definitely wasn't my choice either, but the situation is what it is now. We must have a Republican president, House and Senate if there's any hope that this despicable law will be repealed.

F'in Roberts...

They can send the tax man, backed by 10 ninjasuited thugs with mp5’s, to collect the “tax”,

but they really can’t do the same thing to force us to participate in the economy,

and without a growing economy, this house of cards is in the midst of crashing and burning.

if it iis a tax then 51 senate votes can repeal it

Or 50 votes + the VP. (No filibuster)

It just became easier.

Oh? Is the Presidency the only position being filled in November?

Ummm ...

No, actually.

I have a congressthing, a senaturd, a governor, an attorney general, State house and senate offices, and a handful of local candidates to vote on.

You may be sure I'll show up at the polls for that.

There might even be a local tax or bond issue or some such nonsense on the ballot ... I'll have to check.

I never miss an election.

Cannot agree with your capitulation. Your last sentence seems a Non sequitur to the rest of your post.

The SCOTUS screwed the pooch in District of Columbia v. Heller.
If they anticipated this attempt at making us helots ordered to walk under the yoke, they should have tried to pull our teeth first.
