OH HELL NO. Someone is trying to drag me into doing a huge, incredibly complex proposal for them that they have been sitting on since the first week of June and is due July 3. (Or actually, July 2 since it has to be printed and shipped, which does not seem to have occurred to them.)

Le Nubian, I would be interested in hearing what you think of Omnifocus. They've added a lot of functionality since I started with it and I strongly suspect I am way under using it...

"This is a CRUSHING BLOW for all business owners! No more jobs creation!"
I am commenting everywhere, because I figure selling the bill is our only chance for November. One thing I point out is that now people with pre-existing conditions will be able to become entrepreneurs without losing their health insurance, so they'll be able to start companies that create jobs.

Wow, I'm astonished: I had basically convinced myself that it would be overturned.
Scalia must be having a coronary: I wonder if that's why his dissent on the no-life-in-prison-for-juveniles case apparently reads like a screed from Fox News.
I'm so glad: it means that kids can stay on their parents' insurance plans, and pre-existing conditions won't be grounds for not getting insurance, and Medicaid will be extended to those making less than $30K/year. It's still not as good as single-payer, but it gets a lot of people out of using the ER as their only health care, and will save lives and homes.

this picture is a scream.
Hilarious!
Thanks, Sparky. You and SCOTUSblog are my only reliable news sources on this.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

This might help as well:

Scalia must be having a coronary
For which he cannot lose his healthcare as a pre-existing condition, were he not already set with really good government-provided health insurance.

A quote I just came across on Twitter:
"Man, I hope that Scalia wrote a dissent. It might be the first SCOTUS decision with the work 'fuck' in it."
Heh.
