- I bet right before Chief Justice Roberts sat at his computer and started to write his opinion, he took one deep sigh.
- “It is not our job to protect the people from the consequences of their political choices.”
- Profile in courage moment?
- It’s a bit crazy me thinks that any sitting President of the United States has to learn about Supreme Court rulings like everyone else . . . television. Well, at least that’s what Scott Pelley told me.
- After taking an issue all the way to the Supreme Court and learning they did not rule in your favor, at what point do you decide to just move forward?

- From FactCheck.org – How much will the “tax” penalty be for going without health insurance?
- I never had much of an opinion of Savannah Gunthrie until yesterday. I was very impressed with how she was able to interpret the ruling on such short notice and explain it in layman’s terms. Here, I always thought she was just a young gal with pretty face only good for cooking segments. Heck, I didn’t even realize she’s 40.
- While at the car wash yesterday the owner came by and chatted with me. He was wondering if I heard about how the Army was invading St Louis with tanks on the the street and how it was related to today’s ruling and then talked about how I needed to listen to some ultra-conservative new world order radio host in Austin. A quick Google search lead me to some articles about how the Army is rolling tanks down residential streets for training.
- Sometimes I think the Bible and the U.S. Constitution are similar in that each can be interpreted in the most sincere and veriest of ways.

News Front Pages about 25-minutes after the Supreme Court released their opinion
Right after the ruling was announced CNN jumped the gun with an incorrectly breaking news banner saying the law was struck down only later to have the same banner lead with “CORRECTION” and an updated statement.
Foxnews.com played it smart and was the most cautious with breaking news on their website, after 25-minutes after the ruling, I only saw the website updated other than the breaking news banner that said: SUPREME COURT ABOUT TO RULE ON OBAMACARE — WATCH LIVE pic. But after 30-minutes their website was finally updated with the ruling. It’s good to report news quickly, but it’s better to report it correctly. Good job, Fox News, good job.
Scientists Invent Particles That Will Let You Live Without Breathing
This may seem like something out of a science fiction movie: researchers have designed microparticles that can be injected directly into the bloodstream to quickly oxygenate your body, even if you can’t breathe anymore. It’s one of the best medical breakthroughs in recent years, and one that could save millions of lives every year.
The invention, developed by a team at Boston Children’s Hospital, will allow medical teams to keep patients alive and well for 15 to 30 minutes despite major respiratory failure. This is enough time for doctors and emergency personnel to act without risking a heart attack or permanent brain injuries in the patient.
