ObamaCare is unconstitutional. Why shouldn't the courts take this issue on?

Pretty much.

I agree with you, BRTD.  I'll have to see the arguments and I'll read over the opinion (if it goes to the Court), but as of now, I'd rule against the Republicans opposing this, from what I've seen.

Yeah. Legislation is unconstitutional.

We all know this The Earth Is Not a Cold Dead Place, we all know this.

I've always believed everything I don't like is unconstitutional including Brett Favre
