My most fantastic tinfoil hat theory EVER!!!!
HCR passes. freeps freak out, we dems (whether for or against) celebrate, SCOTUS via roberts rules it unconstitutional. We freak out, the freeps celebrate.

2. It's been rolling around in my pea brain for a while as well...
I fear more about what happens AFTER that if that ruling happens.

10. I'm not sure that matters anymore
Remember that Republicans have the seemingly magical ability to retroactively rewrite history and the Constitution as they see fit, while simultaneously accusing the Democrats of selecting activist judges.

4. I think it's more likely that you'll see more McVeigh/Stack type terrorist attacks soon
Then you'll see the moronic GOPhers on TV blaming the attacks on Democrats.

6. or worse
mandates ruled legal, just to have subsidies stripped away as soon as the republicans regain power.

9. but the unconstitutional part is the mandate. So we are forced to provide a public option
since you can't force people to give money to private corporations.



Hey, I can dream can't I ?
