The Supreme Court's bad call on Affordable Care Act "In King vs. Burwell, the Supreme Court ruled that the Affordable Care Act permits individuals who purchase insurance on the federal exchange to receive taxpayer subsidies. Though the King decision pleases the ACA’s ardent supporters, it undermines the rule of law, particularly the Constitution’s separation of powers..." http://www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed...629-story.html |

as for the aca, it can be repealed. and an opinion piece is just that, the writers opinion. congrats, it matches your opinion. i'll spare you links to articles that don't hold that opinion. not an ardent supporter, i think now and have always thought the aca isa convoluted mess. but it brought coverage to a lot more people, and is all they thought they could do for now. i'll keep waiting and hoping for universal health care.

here's this, regarding cruz and something else he said: "The court's views are radically out of step with public opinion," said Cruz. "The Supreme Court follows the opinions of Manhattan and Washington D.C., but it doesn't follow the opinions of America." ted, same sex marriage was already legal in 37 states in this country. the majority of americans and the majority of states agree there should be same sex marriage. unlike you, ted, they understand what 'equal' means. http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/ted-cruz-...and-lesbians-0 what these folks need to understand is their religious right isn't a greater right than another persons right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. “Ours is a country that was built by men and women fleeing religious oppression,” Cruz told the newspaper, “and you look at the foundation of this country — it was to seek out a new land where anyone of us could worship the Lord God Almighty with all of our hearts, minds and souls, without government getting in the way.” so, gay people wanting to be married are to be made to deal with religious oppression?! amazing thought process, ted.

![]() The topic I referenced was when supposedly Republicans "tried to make this (the South Carolina shooting) about an attack on religion, instead of what it was, an attack based purely on the race of the victims."

"What's NOT mentioned in the opinion piece is that David Rifkin was hired by House Republicans less than a year ago (August 25, 2014), to provide the House with legal representation to sue President Obama over the Affordable Care Act. I wonder if he is billing the U.S. taxpayers for his time spent writing this article . . . ?" And: "What undermines the authors argument, is that in this case we know the intent of the legislators, who for the most part are alive and available. This intent is not an unknown or an issue for historical speculation." The intent of the legislation is quite clear; the three Justices who dissented are just shouting Moops.

![]() It was actually comments posted on the LATimes- or whatever the direct link you posted was from. (See? I really do read links people post. With the possible exception of TownHall and RedState because you gotta draw a line somewhere).
