BREAKING NEWS: Court rules Obamacare subsidies ILLEGAL

Apparently someone DID read the bill, Mrs Pelosi.  Unfortunately for your boss, things did not go well:

The ruling, if upheld, could potentially be more damaging to the law than last month’s Supreme Court decision on contraceptives. The three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals sided with plaintiffs who argued that the language of the law barred the government from giving subsidies to people in states that chose not to set up their own insurance marketplaces. Twenty-seven states, most with Republican leaders who oppose the law, decided against setting up marketplaces, and another nine states partially opted out.

Many people, including Lawrence Tribe, Obama’s old law professor, knew this was coming.  Time to pass the popcorn:

The decision by the three-judge panel in DC federal appeals circuit is the most serious challenge to the underpinnings of the Affordable Care Act since a challenge to that law’s constitutionality was heard by US Supreme Court. The high court in 2012 upheld most of the ACA, including the mandate that most people must get insurance or pay a fine.

Tuesday’s bombshell ruling by the appeals court is expected to be met by Obama Administration asking for a panel made up of all the judges in the same circuit to review the ruling.

If it fails at that level, the administration can ask the Supreme Court to reverse the ruling.

While this will cause mass hysteria within the statist elite circles, we, who have opposed the entire clusterfark that was deemed “affordable healthcare”  hoisted onto Americans THAT DID NOT WANT IT, can cautiously celebrate yet another blow to Obamacare.

I’ll take it.
