This is a big deal and good to hear on an otherwise bad-news Friday:
An appeals court ruled on Friday that President Barack Obama's healthcare law requiring Americans to buy healthcare insurance or face a penalty was unconstitutional, a blow to the White House.

Oh yeah, by the way, not to be snarky or anything but "told you so".
