I heard a rumor on the Twitter that the Affordable Obamacare Law is going to be announced tomorrow.

We're going to have that rumor in the build up to every announcement day until it happens.

Yeah and whoever calls it right is going to be paraded around the Twitterverse as some sort of prophet.

I heard a rumor on the Twitter that the Affordable Obamacare Law is going to be announced tomorrow.

For a moment, I thought this was about the Winding Down Obamacare Act (the popular name of an actual bill introduced in the Senate).

What DID hillary do to track that well amongst minorities, btw?

Marry a black man.

 

[B-Dubs]

Marry a black man.

OK, this one got me.

 

[Retromelon]

I want to see bobby jindal in debates goddamn it he is my favorite.

 

[ivysaur12]

Marry a black man.

loooool

 

[Metaphoreus]

1. We don't know if it will be announced tomorrow.

2. We don't know if it will be turned down.

3. And if it is turned down, we don't know when it would become effective. The Court could stay its ruling until the next enrollment period, for instance.

 

[Chichikov]

Damn...wtf

That woman is dumb as a brick.
Not just any brick, a retarded, racist brick.

 

[Ecotic]

Really hoping for a couple of good news rulings on Obamacare and gay marriage. Obama's numbers are in the low 40's again, the TPP debate is divisive even if it was on track. Not looking forward to another summer in the doldrums.

Curious to see what would happen then in terms of negotiating if this is the case. Honestly? The best outcome for the Republicans might be a compromise where they're able to win more autonomy for states and their plans while still not destroying the health care industry by expanding the subsidies to the federal exchange. I don't see any way in which Obama would sign a bill overturn his key legislative achievement so... I dunno.

Or, nothing happens and it all stays the same shrug emoticon.

The GOP still hasn't detailed a plan because their plan consists of the exact same situation we had before the ACA.

Which is not great for them. That won't work. It's just like the government shut down.

Good news for Bush! According to polls, the number one concerns of voters for 2016 was money in politics, at 33%. That means only 4% of people polled listed political dynasties, as their top concern! And not only that, he's moving up in the "republicans could support" polls well known as a key indicator.

The Kochs are supporting Walker, which is big money. I just don't think the other candidates will bring it up.

Today is the day for ACA shitcanning, right?

I heard he did some ridiculous video on gun violence yesterday too, addressing Charleston by having an all black group of murder prisoners tell the world how using guns ruined their lives. Dude is living in another world, like most Beltway types.

Dispatch: Strickland continues lead over Portman in latest Quinnipiac poll

Former Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland continues to lead Republican incumbent Rob Portman in a new poll on the battle for a U.S. Senate seat next year.

The Democrat holds s 6-point edge over Portman, down a bit from the 9-point advantage Strickland held in the previous Quinnipiac Poll, released in early April.

So in the unlikely event that the government wins, will Obama do a victory lap or call out republicans for still not having an alternative plan 6 years later?

 

[kingkitty]

the end of Obama's legacy is near.

How do you know this is unlikely.
It seems like it could go either way.

They could uphold it, they could strike it down.

 

[BertramCooper]

So is the full opinion posted to the website at 10?

Or do they wait until it's read in court and then post it online?

30 more minutes.

It might not even happen today.

That's what I'm wondering. My bet is Thursday, but who knows?

Why do I hear violins trilling in my head? Stop that!
*GULP*

 

[kingkitty]

I have an insider source that says it's today.

[BertramCooper]

SCOTUS is gonna save Obamacare and then follow it up by destroying the Fair Housing Act.

 

[Crisco]

So in the unlikely event that the government wins, will Obama do a victory lap or call out republicans for still not having an alternative plan 6 years later?

I believe so. He's been holding back the fire and brimstone on this issue waiting for the issue to play out in court. He has to be salty as fuck about it.

 

[HylianTom]

Imagine this:
- marriage equality nationwide
- ACA survives
- lethal injection nixed

Now imagine the reactions from GOP candidates. There's a not-insignificant chance that things could swing this way.

 

[AndyD]

SCOTUS is gonna save Obamacare and then follow it up by destroying the Fair Housing Act.

This is my feeling,.

 

[kingkitty]

Uh huh.

his name is Mr. Mygut

 

[Ecotic]

So tired of waiting, we better get a ruling on something today.

 

[FyreWulff]

My inside sources confirm there is a Supreme Court in the United States. No solid numbers, but could be anywhere from 6 to 15 justices in said court.

 

[Y2Kev]

I think the Supreme Court justices should have a phone number call in like American idol and you have to vote for the justice you want to see go to Hollywood.

Just wait until Clarence Thomas gets Head of Household!

 

[BertramCooper]

FUUUUUUCK.

Neither is being released today.

 

[kingkitty]

booo

 

[Diablos]

I knew it.

 

[Metaphoreus]

At least we got Horne today (the raisin case). The 9th Circuit's opinion in that case was batty.

 

[BertramCooper]

Yeah, this raisins case could have a huuuuuuge impact on ag markets.

Should be interesting to see it all play out.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Can't be right all the time. Next week.
