The Supreme Court may review health care by Thursday
Obamacare Likely To Be Upheld By Supreme Court

Barack Obama is asking the Supreme Court to review Obamacare before the 2012 elections
The Supreme Court may agree to review Obama's health care plan as early as Thursday after an appeals court upheld the constitutionality of the law earlier this week.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ruled that Congress did not overstep its authority by requiring Americans to have health insurance, reported CBS News.
"That a direct requirement for most Americans to purchase any product or service seems an intrusive exercise of legislative power surely explains why Congress has not used this authority before - but that seems to us a political judgment rather than a recognition of constitutional limitations," wrote Judge Laurence Silberman in the court’s opinion.
The ruling comes as the latest in a series of lawsuits against the president's plan Courts around the nation have ruled differently, and the White House has asked the Supreme Court to review the case.
If the Supreme Court upholds Obama's health care plan, every American will be required to have health insurance by 2014 or face a fine. The law will require insurance companies to renew coverage for clients unless there was a fraud or misrepresentation of information. Insurance plans will cover preventative care and immunizations, and a child will be qualified for protection under their parent’s plan until the age of 26.
