WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court could decide as early as Nov. 10 whether to hear a challenge to President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul this term.
Federal appeals court rulings on health care from Atlanta, Cincinnati and Richmond are on the agenda for the justices’ private conference on Nov. 10.
If they agree then to hear any or all of those cases, the decision would be announced that day or when the court meets in public session the following Monday. Such a timetable would allow the court to hear arguments over the health care law in late March and would give the justices three months to craft their opinions.
The central issue is whether the requirement for individuals to buy insurance or pay a penalty is constitutional.
Earlier this month, the Obama administration ditched a major provision of the health care law, a long-term care insurance plan known as the Community Living Assistance Services and Supports, or CLASS.

Posted on October 26, 2011 at 5:43pmDo we dare think they MIGHT possibly go against the Führer Obama? I can only “Hope” and pray that they have some amount of common sense and desire to follow the Constitution. Anyone want to make book on the outcome?

Posted on October 26, 2011 at 4:41pmI’m not even going to read this article. The U.S. Supreme Court should burn Obamacare and tell the American people we’ve decided to uphold the U.S. Constitution in order to keep our jobs. If the Justices force this Unconstitutional Law upon the people, We The People need to take notes of which Justices supported this so called law, vote in new Representation in both Houses of Congress in 2012, in order to remove said Justices from the Supreme Court by rules of impeachment. Checks and Balances…
