Unfortunately he didn't issue an injunction to stop it from proceeding even though he ruled id unconstitutional. 1 state down 49 to go

"Fl Federal Judge rules Obama Health Care is unconstitutional!"
Federal Judge Rodger Vinson found the law's insurance coverage mandate violates the Constitution's commerce clause, but ruled against state arguments that a federally directed expansion of Medicaid is coercive.

If it wasn't the Florida Supreme court, the next stop isn't the SCOTUS.

A federal judge in Florida has ruled that the president's health care overhaul, "Obamacare," is unconstitutional. The judge based his ruling on the unconstitutionality of the law's individual mandate. The ruling affects the 26 states who had joined together to file a case against the law, but also has implications for the entire country.
U.S. District Judge Roger Vinson ruled Congress overstepped its bounds by instituting the individual mandate, but also said the entire law was unconstitutional since the individual mandate is not "severable," Fox News reports. Vinson did not go as far as to issue an injunction blocking the law from being implemented.
Last month, a federal judge in Virginia also ruled that the individual insurance mandate of the Obamacare was unconstitutional. That judge, however, did not go as far as to say the entire law would be unconstitutional.
The ruling is just one more example of why the law is unpopular, and why it faces an uphill battle before being fully implemented in 2014. Still, despite the ruling in Virginia, the president doubled-down on his support of the bill last week, defiantly brushing aside those who question the overhaul.
"You may have heard once or twice this is a job-crushing, granny-threatening, budget-busting monstrosity," Obama said. "That just doesn't match up to the reality."
"I can report that Granny is safe," he quipped.
He said the whole thing is unconstitutional and needs to be thrown out...I don't know if he granted an injunction to prevent the states from billions in set up costs.
There are 12 other lawsuits on different merits of the law set to be decided soon.
I can't wait till the supreme court rules against this usurping, traitorous presidebt so we don't turn into Egypt, Lebanon or Tunisia.
although it might be fun to stand around the capitol chanting "hey hey, ho ho, Obama got to go"
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Hell if we were going by the constitution, he would'nt even be
in the white house.
That means he's an expert and using "handwavium" to circumvent it.
