The President's health care reform measures are. . . constitutional. Again. Hopefully the tea partiers will stop -- with these nonsense appeals.

. . . .Buzzer has sounded -- two boxes today. . .
First opinion: Fair Housing -- Court holds that there is a disparate impact claim under the FHA as a matter of statutory interpretation, but it the Court cautions that remedial orders in disparate impact cases that impose racial targets or quotas could be unconstitutional. . . .
Second opinion: Decision of the Fourth Circuit is affirmed in King v. Burwell. 6-3 . . . .
Majority opinion: "Congress passed the Affordable Care Act to improve health insurance markets, not to destroy them. . . . In this instance, the context and structure of the Act compel us to depart from what would otherwise be the most natural reading of the pertinent statutory phrase. . . ."
Quite so. Onward -- to the plane -- and California, now!

Onward.
