You can be sure that every democrat politician has been notified to NEVER say, use, write the word 'tax' when refering to Obamacare. They are all standing in front of a mirror saying 'it's a penalty, it's a penalty, it's a penalty'.

Just like:

It's not a doll, it's an action figure.
I'm not fat, I'm big boned.

Keep saying it and it becomes true fact.
With the current crop of Americans it shouldn't take more than 2-3 days of repetition.

No wonder they are trying so hard to limit and highly restrict our 2nd amendment.

Q: Why does the Constitution have a second amendment?
A: In case the government doesn't obey the first one.

That's also true for the 10th amendment, and the welfare clause. Both of which were violated by last week's Supreme Court decision.

You can see that right here in CD, all the left loonies refuse to admit it is a tax. It's all they have to hang their hats on. In reality, it just affirms how ignorant they really are...

The mandate tax/penalty by itself is peanuts. It hardly has a significant impact on anyone's tax burden.

The significant impact to tax burdens may come later, depending on how this law is ultimately implemented, in the form of excise taxes on high-end plans, medical devices, etc. That's another story.
