"It might kill Obamacare!"

From Ace of Spades:
Federal Judge Rules That Obama's Unconstitutional Seizing of Monies Without Congressional Appropriation to Pay Off His Insurance Industry Stooges Is In Fact Unconstitutional
—Ace

Enjoined from doing it further -- however, the judge said she'd stay that order (thus, permitting it) upon the filing of an appeal from either party.

The House Republicans had sued the Obama Administration. Obama was -- get this! -- illegally spending money that the House never appropriated to fund Obamacare, specifically, to pay the insurance industry subsidies envisioned in the plan... but not actually appropriated by Congress.

Congress declined to appropriate these monies.

Obama paid the insurers anyway -- utterly illegally.

His theory is that if he wants it hard enough, then all powers of the Constitution flow into him to "fight for the people" or some bullshit.

We'll see what happens on appeal. For now, it's good.

And it just might kill Obamacare.
