Some Perspective on the ObamaCare decision

SEE HERE All is not quite so bleak as it may appear.  The mandate has been knocked down and the thing was approved as a taxing power.  However, as Ken Cuccinelli pointed out tonight in a telephone conference call on a radio program, that means that it can be overturned by a 51% vote and cannot be filibustered, at least the funding can be overturned.  That is a much easier gate to jump through than the 60% supermajority required to shut down a filibuster.  So there are some silver linings in this generally bleak cloud.
