Yesterday a federal judge in Florida hearing the lawsuit by 26 states against what everyone now calls "Obamacare" ruled that the individual mandate is unconstitutional. He went further, taking the government's argument that without the mandate the law was unimplementable and agreed thereby throwing out the entire law and issuing a de facto injunction against implementation.
However, not hours later did the regime already show its condescension for the law by attempting to justify its intent to defy the court. The regime's only course of action is to comply with the ruling until they appeal. This is not the Third World where the dictator trashes a so-called independent judiciary and over rules them. This isn't a democracy where you can say the people don't agree. This is a republic where each branch of government has checks and balances against each other and if the democrats want to over rule the judicial ruling without appealing then their only option is to start over and rewrite the legislation and make it legal under the Constitution.
If Obama and his minions take any other path than the two mentioned above, it's time to drag this regime before that court and declare them in contempt and once done, remove them from office through the allowed Constitutional process. This is not a game folks. These are serious transgressions against the republic and Constitution and puts our freedom in a precarious state. It cannot be tolerated by any president not matter who they are or what label or mantle they wear.
Otherwise the law means nothing anymore, and we see in Tunisia, Egypt and other places, past and present what results. And the United States of America is better than that; the people are better than that, and the rule of law must be respected.
