Because they won’t.<\/p>\n
In the wake of Chief Justice Roberts’ decision that Obamacare is constitutional as a tax, but not under the Commerce Clause, one would think people will start calling it a tax because it’s unconstitutional otherwise.\u00a0 Now I’m not a constitutional expert and can’t tell you what this all means, but I do know how the mainstream (lamestream) media operates.\u00a0 They’ll call it a penalty or something else, but not a tax.<\/p>\n
One would think that they “can’t have it both ways,” as is often said when the media is in a situation like this.\u00a0 Well, they can and will have it both ways.\u00a0 Here’s how.\u00a0 The mainstream media simply uses the same terminology as the Democrat party.\u00a0 If the Democrat party calls it a penalty, the mainstream media will call it a penalty.\u00a0 To sound objective they might report that Republicans claim it’s a tax, but when they call it a penalty, they won’t attribute it to the Democrat party.<\/p>\n
Give it a week or two, and most of the public will be calling it whatever the media (Democrat party) calls it, and the tax argument will be relegated to birther status.<\/p>\n
