“SCOTUScare” Bench Legislation: The Repeal of Obamacare has to be done the Right Way, Through Congress

King v. Burwell -- Scalia Slams Roberts as Biased in Obamacare Cases | National Review Online



by Joel Gehrke June 25, 2015 

 I​n a blistering dissent from the majority in King v. Burwell this
morning, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia said President Obama’s
signature domestic policy achievement should be called “SCOTUScare”
rather than Obamacare, in light of how many times Chief Justice John
Roberts has intervened to protect the law from a crippling legal defeat. 

 Scalia argued that Roberts rewrote the law twice in 2012, and has now
done so a third time in his King decision, which allows the IRS to
continue providing subsidies to people who purchase insurance in the
federal government’s health-care exchange. 

 “The somersaults of statutory interpretation they have performed
(‘penalty’ means tax, ‘further [Medicaid] payments to the State’ means
only incremental Medicaid payments to the State, ‘established by the
State’ means not established by the State) will be cited by litigants
endlessly, to the confusion of honest jurisprudence,” Scalia wrote in
his dissent. “And the cases will publish forever the discouraging truth
that the Supreme Court of the United States favors some laws over
others, and is prepared to do whatever it takes to uphold and assist its
favorites.”
