Eric Cantor Plays Little 'r' Republican: Time to Debate Obamacare in the Supreme Court

With two dozen state lawsuits filed against Obamacare and yesterday's blow to Obamacare in Richmond, Virginia, Eric Cantor has decided to play little 'r' Republican. He issued the following statement after Judge Henry Hudson's ruling against Obamacare:

“Today’s ruling is a clear affirmation that President Obama’s health care law is unconstitutional. The efforts of Governor McDonnell and Attorney General Cuccinelli have raised legitimate concerns and ensured that the people of the Commonwealth will have their rights protected against this unconstitutional law. Ultimately, we must ensure that no American will be forced by the federal government to purchase health insurance they may not need, want, or be able to afford.

“To ensure an expedited process moving forward, I call on President Obama and Attorney General Holder to join Attorney General Cuccinelli in requesting that this case be sent directly to the U.S. Supreme Court. In this challenging environment, we must not burden our states, employers, and families with the costs and uncertainty created by this unconstitutional law, and we must take all steps to resolve this issue immediately.
