Vinson stays his order in response to the administration's disingenuous request for "clarification". His ruling is pretty terse and critical, with none of the "I'm sure the administration had the best of intentions" language of the original ruling of unconstitutionality. It's a pretty good read with good commentary from Ed.

Breaking: Vinson stays ruling on ObamaCare – but just for seven days

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

- Thomas Jefferson
