Because he was the author for Obamacare as governor of Massachusetts? And let's not forget that bastion of liberals at the Heritage Foundation, Cato Institute, Freedomworks who pushed the individual mandate back in the 80's, and pols such as Gingrich who advocated for the individual mandate back in the 90's.

I can hardly wait for the RepubliNazis to try to tell all of the Americans with special-needs kids, kids under 26, people with pre-existing conditions, people who have been dropped from their plans for getting sick...that "Oh! The GOP wants to help you!...We'll just take back all of that stuff that's important and give you ___________________NOTHING!"
Good luck with that...Jus' keep doin' what yer doin'...

Really? What percentage of the voting population are reflected in those groups above? 1%? 5%? And they were likely going to vote for Obama anyway. Don't see a big change in voting patterns based on this decision. Do think there will be an increase in donations for both sides as the bases get fired up.

Oh, boo-friggin'-hoo... Insert standard "the sky is falling" / "we're losing our freedoms" / "government is getting between us and our health care" drivel here: ___________________________.
Of course, it's all lies and spin...But feel free to insert it anyway....

That is quite the spin on a program that forces everyone to participate.
I consider health insurance to be just like auto insurance.....when you don't have it, and catastrophe strikes, everyone pays. Those who don't have health insurance, and end up with hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills they cannot pay cost us all....WE pay for them to be irresponsible. Just like the driver who doesn't have auto insurance and causes a major accident. The rest of us pay with higher premiums. The responsible thing to do is to have insurance.....and the Democrats have done just what the states have done over car insurance.....told people that the general population is no longer going to pay a penalty for their bad decisions.
So when can we get auto insurance to cover pre existing damage?
Also the current poll 2 hours ago has Mitt and Bo tied with 45% ea, 5% undiced and 5% voting for another candidate.
Of course we all no polls are from Poland and really can't count. (Sorry TPP)

Probably one of the reasons that conservatives have been pushing for a health care insurance requirement for decades. Billing the irresponsible.
Will Obama require non-citizens to also take out health insurance if they are working and living here?
