Limbaugh: Government Where Left Wants It With Obamacare Ruling

Calling Thursday's Supreme Court ruling on Obamacare a "disaster," radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh told his radio audience that the left now has the government exactly where it wants it.

"I think many of us are witnessing now the complete corruption of Washington, D.C., meaning the objective has been to corrupt the government and success appears to be, at this moment in time, in hand," Limbaugh said. "The left has the government that they've always wanted."

President Barack Obama is an "authoritarian megalomaniac ruling like a monarch," he said, and according to the Supreme Court, "words, laws, really have no meaning. It's whatever the popular interpretation of the powers that be of the day want the words to mean."

Limbaugh joined Justice Antonin Scalia in excoriating Chief Justice John Roberts for ruling to continue allowing subsidies for people in states that use the federal healthcare exchange. Roberts jumped through legal hoops to ensure the law is not affected, Limbaugh said.

"If the law doesn’t mean anything other than what the highest judge ruling on it says it means, then what is it worth?" he asked, adding that Roberts was "taking it upon himself to interpret this law politically, not reviewing it judicially. That equals the full politicization of the court."
