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 expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

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 be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood.”

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.
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster
