My favorite part about the SCOTUS decision regarding the ACA ...
(other than the immense benefits that will accrue to the American people) is the comical contortions in which cons are engaged in an attempt to paint the decision as a win. In con-world the fact that a bunch of people who were praying that the court would rule as it did so they wouldn't have to … you know … DO SOMETHING is a great thing; because now those individuals who got the result they were hoping for are free to posture, pretend, and prevaricate about how big of a sad they have.
If you have a strong stomach, head over to DI and watch the host of knuckle-dragging jackasses who had predicted a complete repudiation of the ACA try to paint the kick in the nuts they just received as a good thing.
