First, the AHCA is validated, then same sex marriage is legitimized. All this from a right leaning SCOTUS. Fortunately the small minded, self righteous, backward right wing is being marginalized. Ocçasionally, I am heartened that this country's heart is indeed in the right place. Now the right can concentrate on important things such as getting us into another no-win conflict in the Middle East.

The Party Of Old People (formerly known as the GOP) has consistently been on the wrong side of public opinion, but now they find themselves on the wrong side of the law in both the marriage equality issue and Affordable Health Care for all.

Us right wingers knew this was coming. Now we get to sit back and watch as America continues to spiral downhill. The loss of traditional marriage has obviously impacted the country as we are witnessing in many scenarios. Kids don't know whether mom is mom or dad.
As far as obamacare, now we shall watch as premiums skyrocket, doctors leave practices, emergency rooms and hospitals can't handle the amount of people needing care. Let the progress begin

What do you expect for bunch of gay liberal democrat judges at all levels of courts. This is no big surprise. Amazing how judges can over turn even the will of liberal Cala nuts. To top it off Gay judge did it. If your gay judge wouldn't that be conflict interest? As for the aca same boat.

Excuse me but as for the ACA it was 6-3 both Justice Roberts and Justice Kennedy sided with the 4 liberals on the court. Gay marriage was 5-4 with Justice Kennedy siding with the 4 liberals.

THIS IS NOT A LIBERAL COURT....

Roberts was appointed by George W Bush, and Kennedy was appointed by Ronald Reagan. Liberal appointees? Hardly.

Interesting that Senator Barack Obama voted no on Roberts confirmation, the same Roberts that has stepped in twice to save the ACA.

Hopefully when SCOTUS and government employees are forced on ACA he will see the real story of just how bad this law is.

For our edification why don't you describe specifically What makes the AHCA bad. And so that we will know you are fair and reasoned, also the rare areas where it has succeeded. Thank you in advance. Best personal regards.

Hopefully the 2016 elections can rectify much of this.

Not my post but I can answer that question. Nothing was changed with ACA that reduces healthcare cost, the real problem from day one. All the increased cost are now being added to deficiet instead of facing the negative pieces of the legislation. In fact some parts of it that generate the funds to pay for subsidies are being delayed or rolled back. The numbers clearly show it is like SS, Medicare, federal and state pensions, etc. A lot of promises for votes but no money to pay for them. Kind of like that country across the Atlantic with its banks shut down now.

Let me first say, the idea is a good one; one that both parties had kicked around for years. BUT...

1. The entire idea was, lest we forget, to reduce health costs; It has increased the costs with no end n sight.

2. Cost have not even all kicked in as of yet with all the extensions, and I consider this to be an albatross on the federal government. This should have been done by states as proposed a number of times.

Those two bother me.....everyone on both sides favored the covering of all....but we were told, clearly, that the idea was REDUCE HEALTH COSTS. they are continuing to increase.

I am happy that some who could not get insurance in the past now can, but the winners with this bill was the insurance industry. They have made and will continue to make billions on this

Now, it is too late to repeal to be honest...the cost will just get greater than it is going to be.

This needed to be done on a state by state basis with federal assistance, and maybe we might have blessed the overall costs as well as the individual health care costs.
