Deliberations continue in Washington before the highest court in the land. Proponents of Obamacare contend the individual mandate for healthcare is authorized by the Constitution's Commerce Clause.

The ONLY candidate that puts forth a REAL plan to get us out of this two-party sinkhole is Ron Paul. Funny how everyone says they are the real change, but when Dr. Paul advocates a dramatic shift from the status quo he is labeled a radical. Anyone else for ending the Federal Reserve? Anyone else for ending entitlements? Ending the wars? These are real answers to the real problems facing our nation. No other politician has the courage to stand for the truth, even when it hurts your campaign

What gets me is " What are the Reps answer to ANYTHING"? All any of them have done is talk about
getting rid of Obama. They have absolutely never told the American people what the answer is to solve the countries problems. We do not care who was good at what each of them did in their lives, just tell us what YOU intend to do to solve our problems. And.... not just get rid of Obama!! He is NOT the reason we are in this condition. Look to the Bush's and Reagan who started this !!!

You conveniently ignore the fact that since the 2010 elections, the Republican House has passed budgets (Ryan's and others) that your great leader, Harry Reid, will not allow the senate to consider. The demoCRAPS do not want to pass a budget and be revealed for the shameless corruption they are trying to engineer to keep obama and themselves in office!!!

Would like to edit to say: "I never heard anyone calling for Dick Cheney to die".

I didn't hear anyone calling for Dick Cheney to do. In fact, I heard he just had a heart transplant. Now that old goat will live forever.

My concern is it will be upheld by some obscure ruling from Europe or China that has nothing to do with healthcare, U.S. law or the Constitution. Or they'll use something odd, like the qualifications for Senator, to up hold it.

As far as all those compassionate liberals, wasn't it revealing to count how many of them were calling for Dick Cheney to die? Those calls will be magnified for the elderly; and now, for white patients since we have a racist president and a racist attorney general.

The war on women's health issues, basic medical exams, prenatal care, early infant care, assistance for the elderly...all of these will fall by the wayside...two options without manditory coverage...either the ill will go to ERs without any insurance (and you and I will pay the bill) or the GOP will become, after all, the "death panels," effectively telling those without an insurance safety net to die...no coverage, no medical care. So glad all GOP folks are wealthy and take care of their own.

It's not anything against women's health. the left is again lying about the issue to garner favor from those who won't listen. Second, the wealthy overwhelmingly vote Democrat, not GOP.

There is no war on women's health issues. There is a demoCRAP-manufactured talking point that is desperately trying to obscure obama's attack on faith-based organizations' health insurance programs!!
Pay for abortions or else; that is the war and it destroys freedom of religion!!
