I'm copying this from the thread before last:
Serious question: Isn't the FICA deduction specifically a "contribution," NOT a tax, in order to allow for those exemptions such as the Amish? My point is that since Obamacare has been legally designated a tax, how any ANY religion be exempted from it? Isn't that a First Amendment violation?

Mitt Romney is completing an evolution.
He began as Thomas Dewey. He's about right now G.H.W.B. And if we keep kicking him in the ass, even after we vote for him, he might turn into a reluctant Reagan. Posted by: The Q at June 28, 2012 12:58 PM (B/yDO) 33

"Today, the Supreme Court upheld Obamacare. But regardless of what the Court said about the constitutionality of the law, Obamacare is bad medicine, it is bad policy, and when Mitt Romney is president, the bad news of Obamacare will be over.

Not that one data point makes a trend, but-
I just had lunch with a friend of mine who's a small business guy and has been trying hold on to his business in this crappy economy. He's taken a personal hit in income trying to keep as many of his employees as possible. More in sadness than anger, he now plans to let more people go to be able to handle the new costs/taxes coming in 2013. He can't be the only one, whether the SC planned it or not, just watch- unemployment will be up and the economy down. Hopefully, idiots who voted for Obama last time will notice and vote against him or stay home.

Good comment from IOTW:
AbigailAdams June 28th, 2012 Okay. Take a deep breath. The only sensible thing to do is to get your butts off that sofa, stool, chair, or whereever the hell you’re commenting from, go to your local Tea Party website (or look it up from the Tea Party Patriots or TP website of choice) and sign up! There are several comments here, (throat-clearing sound) from people who are referring to the TP as “them”, “they”. If you are Taxed Enough Already (and we ALL are), and you are not a card-carrying member of the TP, you are MIA. Today marks the official beginning of the heavy lifting. You can no longer sit on your butts and expect somebody else to do your share of the heavy lifting. Listen up: If you’re fine with paying $695./year in 2016 and upwards of $1,000. thereafter because you couldn’t bring yourself to make a stand with the only group who has your back today; if you could’t make the time between making witty remarks on IOTW and feeling bold for engaging a progtard on a faceless blog to call your reps, go to a TP meeting or send $5. to a conservative freedom fighter, then you’re not serious about pushing this president, his admin and their ideology off a cliff. We will not win in November unless YOU, not BFH or Boobie or MJA or someone else commenting here does YOUR job. (But of course BFH, Boobie and MJA needs to do their job, too). Bloggers have made a big difference, but it’s not going to be enough. Your physical presence at a TP meeting, at a rally, and doing the actual work of TP members is what it’s going to take. Washington did not have a virtual army at Valley Forge! A lot of people are now saying, “Well, this will sure fire up the TP!” Guess what? Unless you secretly agree with today’s ruling and unless you erroneously think someone else is going to save your butts, YOU, WE, have been officially drafted to the only movement that now stands between the death spiral of Socialism and the real death of America, this president, this Senate and the worldwide forces who believe this world is better off without the greatest gift, outside of Jesus, that God gave the modern world. For all who haven’t experienced the sobering honor of serving your country in uniform, now’s your chance. We’ve only got five months before the vote. Make no mistake — this is a war for the future of the United States of America. It’s not an abstraction or a war one could argue the merits of. It’s not a war being fought in some far-flung corner of the globe. It’s right here. It’s right now. You know the drill: “These are the times that try men’s souls: The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.” Raise your right hand, get your butt off that chair! You’re in the Tea Party now! Noteworthy Comment +14 Posted by: Timwi at June 28, 2012 01:09 PM (pdhxN) 76

"In the Flesh Part 2."
Bite down on this, son. I know. Great decision. Commerce Clause was crap, it's a tax. Run on that and choke on it. Roberts is going to take a lot of flack from the right, but I think he just did us all a huge favor. He avoided a Leftist turnout bonanza by parrying criticism of a politicized court. They're all doing fist-pumps. The ball is still in play. Posted by: mputtre at June 28, 2012 01:11 PM (EjomV) 84
I lost it in one of the threads below but isn't there a case attacking this as a tax already up on appeal?
I believe so. And as much as we may be upset right now, I have a feeling that - as a commenter above noted - Roberts just rolled a Trojan horse into the middle of the Democrats' camp and left it there for them to discover. Every Democrat who voted for this is now on record as having voted for the largest tax increase in American history. By saying that this is a tax, Congress can now repeal it with 51 votes instead of 60 - do you think anyone in Congress wants to be the one to vote to increase Americans' taxes? Obama lied. Obama lied. Obama lied. We can hang this around his neck like a dead albatross. Posted by: Teresa in Fort Worth, TX at June 28, 2012 01:11 PM (0xqzf) 85

I think this plays into romney's hands. At this point, it's purely an economic issue. All Romney has done is concentrate on the economy. They've goaded him, they've tried to draw him into other issues. They've tried to have him issue a road map of what he's going to do so the President can rubber stamp it and agree and he's steadfastly concentrated on the economy and creating jobs and bringing us back from the cliff.
The dems don't know how to fight this now, they've been thrown. I'm hearing from my friends that the media did a horrendous job covering this, that they reported it was overturned initially cause maybe that's what they thought was coming and that's what they wrote so they could push the button, so they pushed the button and reported it and were wrong. Steve Abrams apparently was thrown on air, saying "wait, this is a lot, I have to read through this". They were prepared to have it go down, romney's always been prepared for it to be sustained. He's in the stronger position right now. Posted by: starry at June 28, 2012 01:12 PM (oZfic) 89

Just donated...after they've called my house every day, multiple times per day for the last year. That's the kind of thing that makes me not do stuff like this. But I did it anyway. ------- Same here.I avoid all robo calls because I despise them. However I've been saying that I'll vote for a ham sandwich before I pull the lever for Obama, so I just sent the sammich some cash. Putting my money where my mouth is. It's time to get er done. The stakes are high. Tea party focus = Call the tax what it is, a TAX.A 1.7 TRILLION dollar in the next ten years (and that is a bogus lowball estimate) TAX. And get out the damn vote.

My lib sister in law is having a wedding shower for my niece and nephew next weekend (they are both conservatives). I am not going. I will give the happy couple their gift at the wedding. From this day forward, I am done with anyone who voted for the Jugeared Shitstain. That includes SIS, BIL's, nieces, nephews and friends. I'm done.

This is not 100%. A dedicated effort can roll back government power. Look at what the NRA’s been able to do against gun control, for instance. The ugly gun ban was actually allowed to expire, concealed carry has been restored in most states, and there are probably others I’m forgetting. A dedicated effort can change this, too.

Oh I was also dumb and decided to turn on NPR, glad I did. They were going on and on about how uber awesome this shit was that it was getting passed. They went on to talk about how so many people opposed and how this will probably help Dems with swing voters, then out of the blue, one of the guys involved in the conversation brought up that Romney was up to $325k as of 11:50.

I thought it was closer to $100k in the first hour after decision. Per a tweet that was blogged on WZ.
Unimportant. Mitt needs to get a shitload of money today. The message being sent goes to both Obama AND him. We're all still calibrated to McCain. I don't think Mitt is stupid enough to take all this money, and then not repeal ObamaTax within his first month in office. Posted by: reason at June 28, 2012 01:51 PM (q/kmn) 146
Just trying to find the silver lining here...
If Obamacare was overturned, wouldn't that lead to a lot of businesses immediately starting to hire again? And wouldn't Obama start taking credit for that turnaround? Now the dems have to run on this tax increase. They may be celebrating now, but in the long run this isn't going to help their cause. I think there is hope, maybe more than we think right now. What seems clear to me is that in the next few years we need several new constitutional amendments, including a balanced budget amendment and an amendment that curtails the commerce clause. I think we could get the country on board with those, if we work hard to educate them. Posted by: Galadriel at June 28, 2012 01:52 PM (xG0vx) 147

9 "The shiny new Gadsden flag is up in the front yard".
___ Had been seeing more Gadsden flags flying around here the past month or so, figured it was people getting geared up for the election. My neighbor a few doors down had taken theirs down last year, hadn't seen it at all- until I went home for lunch. It's back up on their porch rail, even though the hem is all raggedy and tattered. Donating to Romney today, even though I'm about to buy a house and my savings will be 95% consumed by that purchase. I consider it a small sacrifice to the cause.

I'm starting to think this decision is the best thing that could have happened. We really need events, issues, and leadership that convinces the teeming masses to pull their head out of their asses (or at least make some tugging gestures in that direction).
Time to go back to Plan A - Win majorities and and pound repeal and revision down the liberal squeakhole sideways, wrapped with sandpaper and coated with ghost pepper sauce. If this had gone the other way, it might be Obama getting the money bomb right now. We can't have that. Let them over-extend and get complacent in what they see as a victory. Their winter is coming.

I woke up this morning too thinking if Obama Tax was defeated, the economy would pick up and then SCOAMF gets re-elected. Roberts may have helped us by calling it a tax, after SCOAMF tried telling Snuffleupugus it was definitely NOT a tax.
