We are suffering with an unimaginative and impotent Republican majority in Congress lead by John Boehner (R-OH) and Eric Cantor (R-VA). Democrats own this pair of nitwits who are at the mercy of the Left’s ever growing penchant for spending our money on more and more social programs that have in many ways led to […]

Like everyone else on the right, I detest this ruling and truly hoped that it had gone the other way. But in the back of my mind, when the government made the argument that the mandate was a tax, I thought that was something worth worrying about. Of course, the argument during the legislative process […]

The ruling shocked nearly everyone. And the Democrats were, indeed, wrong. The mandate is not constitutional under the Commerce Clause. That much was affirmed. But Justice Roberts surprised everyone by allowing the mandate to survive as a tax, an argument that the government never pushed, and one Obama flatly denied, as did most Democrats. “This is not […]

It might not seem probable that Obamacare could cause more foreclosures, particularly among the middle class, but these are not normal times.
