Oh yeah, Obama was all worried about "Conservative Judicial Activism."
Wonder if he'll acknowledge the activism in the fact that the court ruled a way that both sides rejecetd. (well I don't... but it's ironic.)
It was a clear case of the court not wanting to stick with the status quo healthcare and finding any legal loophole they could to get it to pass because it was obviously unconsitutuitonal from the commerce clause to anyone who looked at it objectivly.

Roberts, maybe. Ginsburg's opinion (joined by Sotomayor, Breyer, and Kagan) made it clear that they still believe that the Commerce Clause has no practical limits, at least so long as they like the outcome.

Note the "Anyone who looked at it objectivly" line. If this were about anything not having to do with peoples emotions this would of been an easy 7-2 verdict.
