Could be the way the GOP puts some lip stick on the bill then change the name and call it theirs.

The article is premised upon the SCOTUS ruling in favor of Obamacare critics, which is probably a stretch.

I still believe next year ""Obama Care/ACA"" will have a name change in the GOP echo chamber (FOX NEWS) with little to no substantive changes being made. Claim it as theirs and it will be next to tax cuts for the top 1% the best ever work out of them. Their claim not mine!

No just the usual screw-up since they can't do a damn thing right.

No, it's "MINE! I THOUGHT OF THIS FIRST, YOU POOPY-PANTS! MOM! NANCY AND BARRY ARE STEALING MY IDEAS AGAIN!"

The GOP needs to grow up. Seriously.

Who gives a fig what Dr. Gruber says? Sorry Pete, still no smoking gun.

A "state" also includes the whole of the United States. Look it up.

I suspect Roberts rues the day he ever let the government force somebody to buy insurance to begin with, calling it a tax or whatever.

Of course, it is hard to put milk back in the cow.

But, Obamacare will evolve quite a bit over the next few years.
