The highest court in the land has spoken and thedebate has been framed for the next four months. This debate will be about the future of Obamacare, and how politicians react andrespond to the Supreme Court ruling willdetermine their political futures.We now know categorically that Obamacare wasa tax after all. President Obama misled theAmerican people and now we have an enormoustax increase on our hands. According to theHouse Ways and Means Committee, there will be21 tax increases because of the Obamacare Tax,costing more than $675 billion over the next tenyears. In simple terms, the American people wereduped by President Obama. Whether you are richor poor, white or black, male or female, Democrator Republican, your taxes are going up.The U.S. House will hold a vote to repealObamacare in mid-July and it can be predictedthat repeal will pass with a healthy bi-partisanmajority. This tally will reflect the fact that asolid majority of the American people oppose
Obamacare and disagree with the Court’s decision
to allow for this massive expansion of government.
We’ll know exactly where House
Democrats stand after this vote is taken
–
Democrats frightened about their reelectionchances will vote with the Republican majority totake this dangerous tax-hike off the books.On the U.S. Senate side there will be considerable pressure on Democrat Majority Leader HarryReid to schedule a similar vote to repealObamacare.
If Reid digs in and doesn’t schedule
a vote, it will become more likely that Republi-cans will recapture the majority in the Senate in November.
Here’s why:
There are at least five Democrats inthe Senate who would probably appreciate the

opportunity to go on record with a vote to repeal Obamacare. Senators such asSherrod Brown of Ohio, Bob Casey, Jr. of Pennsylvania, Claire McCaskill of Mis-souri, Bill Nelson of Florida, and Jon Tester of Montana all voted for Obamacaretwo years ago, but today the law is viewed unfavorably in their states. Their sup- port for Obamacare could cost them their careers - like Ben Nelson from Nebraska- especially since the Court ruled that it is actually a new tax.Will Harry Reid schedule a vote or will these Senators be forced to pay the ulti-mate political price for their support of the Obamacare Tax . Will these five Sena-tors listen to their constituents and put pressure on Harry Reid to schedule a repealvote?
Time will tell, but it’s about to get a lot hotter in Washington.

large pile of debt. Illinois posts an 8.7 percentunemployment rate, which is well above the nationalaverage. In California, the bastion of liberal ideology,Sacramento is swimming in debt that is approaching the$16 billion mark, on the heels of a credit downgrade. Lib-eral ideology of the President clearly fails at all levels of government. States The ideology of the President in stepwith is failing at all levels of government, not just at thefederal level where he is to blame.On the other hand, states like Ohio and Wisconsin havedone a tremendous job cutting the toxic fat fromexcessive government spending and programs. BothRepublican Governors John Kasich of Ohio and ScottWalker of Wisconsin have reported substantial growth andconsiderable job creation over the past fiscal year. Ohioranks 4

in the nation for job creation in the past year todate, and Wisconsin has not seen an increase inunemployment or underemployment since Gov. Walker implemented his pro-growth policies, while 23,000 new jobs were added to the Badger State.
Why is it that we don’t see the mainstream media giving
praise to Governors Kasich and Walker for doing whatthey promised when they were elected, and getting their
state’s fiscal house in order? All we get is a frenzy about a
recall election in Wisconsin where the liberal media andBig Labor lost in a huge way. We should commend thegovernors for doing what is necessary for their states, andfor that matter our country, at a time when the President of the United States is failing the American people at everyturn.President Obama is showing Americans that he just doesnot understanding how the free market system works - nor does he care. We find ourselves in a situation where theimpact of Obamanomics has set our country back a longway. We are on a path towards bankruptcy and PresidentObama must take his head out of the sand. Wisconsin andOhio are blueprints of the kind of diligent work it takes totruly move our economy forward. Unfortunately, PresidentObama is far too beholden to his failed liberal ideology toeven begin to assess the proper budget cuts that would putout nation back on track.
What the States Can Teach Us aboutObamanomics
With each passing day it is becoming more and more ap- parent that President Barack Obama has little to no ideawhat it really takes to run our country. Leave it to acommunity organizer to run the country into an economicabyss. The U.S. economy is stagnant, with highunemployment, deficits, and debts as far as the eye cansee, and yet President Obama is still relying on the sameold stale liberal policies and selling his fallacy of recovery.One way to showcase how Obamanomics has failedAmerican citizens is by examining the economiclandscapes of individual states that have adopted differingstrategies for financial recovery.
States such as California and Obama’s old stomping
ground of Illinois have adopted liberal deficit spending
policies that mirror the President’s excessive government
policies. These states do not have much else to show for their liberal agenda other than high unemployment and a
