Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), a 2016 Republican presidential candidate, said Thursday that the Supreme Court’s decision on Obamacare was effectively turning “both the rule of law and common sense on its head.”
Paul’s statement said President Obama’s health care program “is the wrong fix” for America.
“This decision turns both the rule of law and common sense on its head,” Paul reportedly said. “Obamacare raises taxes, harms patients and doctors, and is the wrong fix for America’s health care system.”
Paul also discussed what he would do differently as President and noted his perspective as a doctor.
“As President, I would make it my mission to repeal it, and propose real solutions for our healthcare system,” Paul said. “As a physician, I know Americans need a healthcare system that reconnects patients, families, and doctors, rather than growing government bureaucracy.”

As a Senator, though, I’m just going to bloviate.
Still waiting breathlessly to hear about those “real solutions.”
And the race begins! Which dumbfuck clown car participant will say the most idiotically over the top thing about all this?
My guess is all of them.
Actually the Supreme Court IS the rule of Law.
