Good one, Mike!! Scalia does have, when things are going his way, and he’s in control, a pretty decent sense of humor. However, he’s as unbiased and “non-activist” in his behaviors on the bench as a junk yard dog on an intruder’s throat.
But it was entertaining. It was fun to see him just make something up out of the air and repeat it half a dozen times. That put all his posts into perspective. I prefer the theory that Roberts was kidnapped by space aliens and an android was left behind to fool us all and destroy the US. My evidence is as good as his was.
The Act makes health care more affordable for families and small business owners by providing the largest middle class tax cuts for health care in American history. Tens of millions of families will benefit from new tax credits which will help them reduce their premium costs and purchase insurance. Families making less than $250,000 will see their taxes cut by hundreds of billions of dollars.
When enacted, health reform is completely paid for and will reduce the deficit by more than one hundred billion dollars in the next ten years.
This title will be implemented by the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

You have apparently only read the preamble pooooop . . . . . ..Surely you are not suggesting that Republicans are against it because they didn’t read it . . ., but than again, you couldn’t possibly accept that Republicans can read and even recognize a pile of legalese pooooop for what it really is.
