Even some libs have noticed their beloved Commerce Clause distortions are threatened.

Maybe bunnies are too Polly-Annish but I see more opportunities than threats here.

Doubtful. Birds are democrats

Ptarmigans are neither Democrats or Republicans. Rabbits want to brainwash and doom humans.

I have a serious question. Does Roberts's opinion give the congress any power it didn't have before 10 am yesterday? People way smarter than I are really pissed (Levin, Rebel), while other way smarter than I (Krauthammer, MSB) see it more positively. I think Roberts threaded a needle.
Let nothing trouble you,
Let nothing frighten you. 
All things are passing;
God never changes.
Patience attains all that it strives for.
He who has God lacks nothing:
God alone suffices.

Yes they now have more power over your life via the tax than any government has ever had.  Everything you do can loop back to your health and the cost of keeping you healthy...to force you to live the way the Feds want you to live (Moochelle diet plans...driving Volt's etc) and if you don't...they can either deny you health care or raise your rates for your healthcare.

The Government has a means to now control your every behavior via taxiation.

Krauthammer is trying to put lipstick on a pig.  Yes...the ruling has doomed a second Obama term...but the groundwork (prescedent) has been laid for future administrations or futuer Congress' to take this and run with it.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Worse. Everything you don't do, as well. And there's no reason a new "tax" has to be related to healthcare even tangentially; under this precedent the Congress can now tax us for doing or not doing anything at its whim. I call the word into question with quotation marks because these are "taxes" without transactions. Also known as penalties you ****ing dirtbag POS stealth-lib bastard Roberts!

I'd like to make some joke about "the Dread Pirate Roberts," but I just don't have much of sense of humor today.

Let's see how they like "the power to tax" when there suddenly is a $10,000 tax per abortion.

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible
