Obama to Americans : health insurance not a tax, Obama to courts: it is a tax

[..PAUL4PRES..]

In order to protect the new national health care law from legal challenges, the Obama administration has been forced to argue that the individual mandate represents a tax -- even though Obama himself argued the exact opposite while campaigning to pass the legislation.

Late last night, the Obama Department of Justice filed a motion to dismiss the Florida-based lawsuit against the health care law, arguing that the court lacks jurisdiction and that the State of Florida and fellow plaintiffs haven't presented a claim for which the court can grant relief. To bolster its case, the DOJ cited the Anti-Injunction Act, which restricts courts from interfering with the government's ability to collect taxes.

Typical politician.

Typical politician.

Yup; lying, cheating, and stealing.

A politician does not make promises with his own money, he always promises with other people's money.

Lying sack of krap. The HC bill is unconstitutional to the core. If the Supreme Court does not knock this one down then we may as will disband them because there is nothing anywhere that they will rule against.

The HC bill is about direct opposite of the constitution. The SC will be about useless if they cannot rule against this.

We are watching the decay of a one term president.
