Many people seem to think it's a fait accompli that the SC is going to overturn the ACA that Congress passed two years ago. Maybe, maybe not.
Considering that a lot of people are emotionally invested (to say the least) in the Supreme Court's ruling, as opposed to being intellectually invested in the merits (or lack thereof) of Obamacare, it seems to me that many people will either be extremely elated or furious beyond words at the court's decision if and when it does or doesn't turn out the way they expect and want it to be decided.
This thread may serve as a place for people to vent their frustration if the court makes a majority ruling that runs contrary to their views.
Pity there cant be a thread where the ruling would be discussed in an objective, unemotional, and rational manner.
There is nothing rational about this. The fact it made it this far is a testament to how committed conservatives are to tearing down the government. This was the conservative solution to the health care problem..and now it's one they want reversed.
And they aren't doing it in congress..they are doing it in court.
Its also a testament to how committed conservatives are to tearing down Obama, regardless the damage to the Nation.

I think we should wait until their actually is a ruling.

Both sides will claim victory, no matter what the ruling is.

who the fuck here does THAT apply to?

They'll spin it to be sure.
But this is ultimately going to reflect badly on Conservatives. Because it will be conservative judges that will vote to over-ride legislation from congress.

easy... 200 years of caselaw... but it's not like that means anything to the rightwingnuts or their embarrassing henchmen on the Supreme Court.

So the nation is going to be damaged by the Courts upholding the Constitution?

no. it damages the country when the high court becomes a shill for the rightwingnuts and loses legitimacy as the final arbiter of the constitution.
i know that your partisanship means more to you, though.

What caselaw says all Americans MUST purchase a good or service from the government?
There was a reason the 0bama lawyer was laughed at during oral arguments, dear...
I think they would be quite pleased that we do, AND that over the years, we have used their perscribed method for making changes. The Founding Fathers gave us a document, written in fairly simple language the common man could understand. They meant it to last, but provided a cumbersome method to amend it. This cumbersomeness is not by mistake. Were it simple to amend, it would be 10 times the size of the healthcare bill by now and just as impossible to decipher.The decision is supposed to be announced early Thursday June 28.

In my view, either way I'm going to have mixed feelings. I can't believe the mandate to buy insurance is constitutional which is what a Supreme Court decision should be based upon. On the other hand, there are a lot of things to like about the Act and it will be a shame to see it cast aside because part of it is unconstitutional. So if it remains intact; the Constitution (as I read it) is violated. If it is repealed, we lose a good law based on this archaic document written by men who likely would be the first to wonder why we're still living under a 200+ year old document.

I believe in the Constitution. I swore to uphold and defend it. I take my oath seriously. Which has been why I opposed Obamacare from the beginning.
the commerce clause has been broadly interpreted for as long as its been interpreted.
and do you really think there's a substantive difference between having to pay FICA and having to buy into a pool of insurers to cover services you will at some point in time use.
i love how that was peachy keen when the heritage foundation came up with it as an alternative to Hillary Clinton's single payor, but suddenly became "unconstitutional" when this president signed it into law.
he wasn't laughed at by the judges. he was laughed at by people like you because he came off like the bill buckner of constitutional lawyers. but that was personally, not the law behind him, dear.

nonsense... you opposed it because the voices on the right told you to.
