Supreme Court Not Ready to Deal with Obamacare Yet

Obamacare is clearly unconstitutional. The Commerce Clause doesn't give the government the authority to force citizens to participate in commerce and forced by the IRS's gun. With this fact along, the Supreme Court should have taken up Virginia's request to expedite a ruling on Obamacare, especially since other states are challenging it as well, including the Democratic Attorney General of Missouri, Chris Koster.

The Washington Post reports:

The Supreme Court has taken no action on Virginia’s call for speedy review of the health care law.

Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli is asking the court to resolve questions about the law quickly, without the usual consideration by federal appellate judges and over the objection of the Obama administration.

The case was among those that were scheduled to be discussed in the justices’ private conference on Friday, but there was no announcement about the case when the court convened on Monday.

The silence could mean, among other things, that one justice asked for more time to think about the case or to write a short opinion that would accompany an order.

The justices meet again on Friday to discuss pending cases.
