Supreme Court revives ‘Obamacare’ challenge
A lawsuit challenging the Obama administration’s health care law will be heard again in a federal appellate court, the Supreme Court ruled Monday.
The ruling “breathes new life” into the challenge to the Affordable Care Act, said Mathew Staver, founder and chairman of Liberty Counsel, which represents the petitioners.
“Our fight against Obamacare is far from over,” he said.
The petitioners are the Christian college Liberty University, and two Christians, Michele Waddell and Joanne Merrill. They are arguing that they do not want to be forced to buy insurance as proscribed by the Affordable Care Act. They also object to paying for insurance that likely would include coverage for abortion and family planning. Such a mandate, they said, violates their constitutional rights to religious freedom.

I'm certainly no fan of O'bummercare, I don't like it. Not one bit. It is a job killer. As for the legal challenge? [sarcasm] Good luck with that! [/sarcasm]

It will probably get shot down on the basis of, just because something is covered such as abortion, does not require the person to use that particular item.
For an example, if tooth extractions are covered does not mean you have to run out and get a couple pulled.

Crap...now you tell me. ;D
I gave up much hope on BHOCare and the law makers involved when the then House Speaker said we had to vote it in before we can know what is in it....and wasn't tarred and feathered by her constituents.
