Well, if the health care reform gets shot down a lot of people will be upset. No more coverage for pre-existing conditions? No keeping your kids under your policy until they can afford their own?
Sounds like a Democrat majority in the making.
it might be... but more than that, how low do people have to be to celebrate this? that's what i find so perplexing. it's not even.. ."ok i disagree with this"... it's an insane fervor.
bizarre...
would you drink champagne if someone suddenly couldn't get health insurance because of a pre-existing condition?
i don't know...there seems to be something deranged about it.
I found it amazing that the judges of the highest court in the land..where making silly Broccoli arguments. Every conservative judge asked that question. And it's straight out of the Tea Party..they didn't even try to change it. It's an incredibly simplistic and ignorant argument. It's hard to believe any of these guys are serious lawmakers.
It was shameful. I was especially dissappointed in Judge Roberts..who I use to have a good deal of respect for...
Therein lies the problem. Justices of the SCOTUS are not lawmakers despite their recent history of legislating from the bench. Broccoli comments and 8th amendment comparisons are valid in that they illustrate how preposterous forcing "commerce" is.
