Sure he is. He doesn’t believe the Commerce Clause can be abused. What a liberal.
I don’t like his decision and think it’s wrong, but if you actually read the ruling, you get what he was trying to do here in the bigger picture, advance conservatism even at the expense of what might seem like a short-term loss by upholding the law.
In the long-run, it will be a good thing.
Doesn’t mean I don’t wish he had just overrruled it though.
I'm going to ask you one last time, and then I'm going to have to ask you to stop lying: WHAT SPECIFICALLY ENUMERATED POWER IS THIS "TAX" NECESSARY TO IMPLEMENT IN THE mandate of the ACA?
You can't say "the ACA itself." Because that would mean that Congress's power to tax justifies a law with no other necessary enumerated power being involved. In that case Roberts' decision is the most sweeping power-grab in history. You can't say "the mandate" because that would be circular.
Please answer the question, or stop posting nonsense.
Nuts! It is a horrible ruling with NO silver-lining. Yesterday, Mark Levin eviscerated the ruling.
Roberts is a purely evil man. What he did was to vastly increase the Power of the State.
If anyone thinks there is anything good about this ruling they are delusional.
Strange since he announced today that he felt he had to save the bill at all costs, it was the will of the people. Well he did save it in a way that defied any sue of legal logic, or common sense.
God I hate Lawyers.
