The Supreme Court bent over backwards today in an attempt to save Obamacare from its own tortured language by reinterpreting the statute, making the plain phrase "Exchange established by the state" signify both the state and federal exchanges. The mainstream media, in turn, are triumphal, having helped sway the final decision.
We have repeatedly written about The New York Times'
biased reporting regarding the
King v. Burwell case and Obamacare in general. Today, the Times' Editorial Board came out and
said what Americans already knew, having read many of this paper's farcical health care columns masquerading as reporting. The Times condemned the plaintiffs as having spearheaded a "blatantly political effort to destroy the Affordable Care Act," called the case an "ideological farce dressed in a specious legal argument," and claimed "the court should never have taken review of it to begin with."
