Oh Yeah!

From Politico:
A federal judge on Monday ruled that the entire health care overhaul is unconstitutional, but he stopped short of ordering the federal government to stop implementing it.

Judge Roger Vinson ruled that Congress overstepped its legal bounds when it included the provision requiring nearly all Americans to buy insurance. Because the provision is key to the rest of the law, he declared the whole thing unconstitutional.

and the pièce de résistance,
“Because the individual mandate is unconstitutional and not severable, the entire Act must be declared void."

This is going to get very interesting.
