Two of the 5 were put there by Reagan and W. That must sting.

Only if you are Progressive; Conservatives don't twist words,,,it is why they lose elections. They are more honest in their language.

Obama being the prime example of dishonesty (liar) to get elected and govern.....Obamacare being the most obvious.

Only a real moron calls seven uses of the phrase "established by the state" -- "a typo" and not intentional - but I guess you know the limitations of liberal legislators better than the rest of us.

Especially when one of the bill's principal architects, Gruber, is on record explaining exactly why they worded it the way it was worded:

[nwarounder]

I'd have to disagree with almost all here. They, as with congress did not read the law. They did not interpret the words. They did not seek the intent of what was written.
The reason the wording in question was put in there, intentionally, was to force the states to set up an exchange, that is obvious to all with half a brain. What they failed to predict was how many would refuse to set one up despite the coercion.

All SCOTUS did was say to themselves, "Do we want to be the cause of 7-8 million people losing their hand outs, and therefore their insurance with no solid plan to fall back on?".

The first Repub candidate to come out with a truthful, no slight of hand, common sense replacement of Obamacare will be the next president.

Unfortunately the pack of dunces so far, have written nothing.

Probably true...but where did they get the power to ask themselves that?

The founding fathers were strongly against judges inserting their own political and personal views when determining the constitutionality of any law. They considered this an impeachable offense for Supreme Court Justices. According to the Constitution, Supreme Court Justices only hold their office if they maintain good behavior. The founding fathers understood that when justices insert their own views into the judicial process they are not exhibiting good behavior and should be impeached. This is a principle of English Common law which the founders derived our entire legal system from. However the framers did not specify this in the actual Constitution. They believed this was commonly understood. They were wrong because no Justice has ever been impeached for this offense which is now rampant.
