(AUDIENCE CHANTING "STEPHEN!")

>> Stephen: WELCOME TO THEREPORT.

THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.

THANK YOU, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

FOLKS, I AM ALWAYS -- YOU KNOWME.

YOU WATCH THIS SHOW.

I'M NOT PROUD.

I'M NOT PROUD.

( AUDIENCE CHANTING "STEPHEN!" )

>> Stephen: OH, I CAN'T FIGHTTHAT.

BUT, FOLKS, YOU KNOW, IF YOUWATCH THIS SHOW, I'M NOT A

PRIDEFUL MAN.

I ALWAYS AM THE FIRST TO ADMITWHEN I'M WRONG, AND ONCE AGAIN,

I AM RIGHT.

( LAUGHTER )( APPLAUSE )

THIS TIME IT'S ABOUT OBAMACARE.

FOLKS, I'VE NEVER LIKED IT.

FIRST, THEY PUT A BUREAUCRATBETWEEN AND YOU YOUR DOCTOR, AND

THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW THEDOCTOR AND THE BUREAUCRAT ARE

HANGING OUT ALL THE TIME ANDCONVENIENTLY FORGET TO CALL

YOU THE NIGHT THEY WANT TO GOSEE "INTERSTELLAR," AND YOU

HEARD THEY HAD SUCH A GREATTIME, THEY EVEN HAD A BEER

AFTERWARDS TO TALK ABOUT THEMOVIE.

THANKS, OBAMA.

( LAUGHTER )LUCKILY, THE REPUBLICANS ARE IN

POWER NOW, AND THEY'RE GOING TODO SOMETHING ABOUT IT BY UNDOING

SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

>> REPUBLICANS DOMINATE STATEGOVERNMENTS THIS TIME AROUND,

ALSO EAGER TO FIX OBAMACARE.

>> THERE ARE SOME CHANGES TOOBAMACARE THAT I THINK BOTH

PARTIES CAN AGREE TO.

>> WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO SHOWTHAT WE HAVE IDEAS, THAT WE ARE

GOING TO PASS LEGISLATION ANDTRY TO FIX OBAMACARE.

>> Stephen: YES, AFTER MORETHAN 50 VOTES AGAINST OBAMACARE,

THE REPUBLICAN MAJORITY IS NOWPROMISING TO FIX THE LAW.

JUST LIKE WHEN YOU TRY TO MURDERSOMEONE 50 TIMES, AND IT DOESN'T

WORK, SO YOU BUY THEM A GYMMEMBERSHIP.

AND THEY HAVE A GREAT STARTINGPOINT FOR HEALTH CARE

REFORM-REFORM.

>> WE'LL TAKE ON OBAMACAREREGULATIONS THAT THREATEN THE

40-HOUR WORK WEEK.

>> LET'S PUT ON HIS DESK THINGSLIKE RESTORE THE 40-HOUR WORK

WEEK.

>> THE LOSS OF 40-HOUR WORKWEEK, BIG, BIG, MISTAKE.

THAT OUGHT TO BE RESTORED.

>> WE MUST TAKE ACTION ANDRESTORE THE TRADITIONAL 40-HOUR

WORK WEEK.

>> Stephen: YES, RESTORE THETRADITIONAL FOUR-HOUR WORK WEEK

AS GOD INTENDED WHEN HE CLOCKEDOUT AT FIVE WHETHER OR NOT THE

OCEANS WERE DONE.

THAT'S WHY FLOUNDERS LOOK SOWEIRD.

CONGRESS MIGHT NOT HAVE TO FIXTHIS WRECK BECAUSE IT MIGHT HAVE

WRECKED ITSELF.

>> OPPONENTS OF OBAMACARE HAVEANOTHER OPPORTUNITY TO SAY, "I

TOLD YOU SO."

>> THE INCENDIARY REMARKS BY ONEOF OBAMACARE'S CHIEF ARCHITECTS,

M.I.T. ECONOMICS PROFESSORJONATHAN GRUBER.

>> IF YOU MADE IT EXPLICIT THATHEALTHY PEOPLE PAY IN AND

SICK PEOPLE GET MONEY IT WOULDNOT HAVE PASSED.

>> HE CLAIMS OBAMACARE WASINTENTIONALLY WRITTEN IN A

TORTURED WAY TO HIDE THE TAXESTHAT WOULD HAVE KILLED THE BILL.

>> Stephen: A-HA!

I KNEW IT.

OBAMACARE IS FUNDED BY TAXES,UNLIKE EVERY OTHER PART OF THE

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

I MEAN, EVERYBODY KNOWS THE F-35FIGHTER JET PROGRAM IS PAID FOR

WITH CANDY SALES.

( LAUGHTER )AND JUST LISTEN TO WHY THEY

THOUGHT THEY COULD GET AWAY WITHTHIS.

>> LACK OF TRANSPARENCY IS AHUGE POLITICAL ADVANTAGE, AND

BASICALLY, CALL IT THE STUPIDITYOF THE AMERICAN VOTER OR

WHATEVER, BUT BASICALLY, THATWAS REALLY, READY CRITICAL TO

GET THE THING TO PASS.

>> Stephen: THE STUPIDITY OFTHE AMERICAN VOTER.

PROFESSOR GRUBER JUST DELIVEREDA DEATH BLOW TO OBAMACARE IN

WHAT I'M CALLING THE "ZA-GRUBERFILM."

AND I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE OUTTHERE WHO IS OFFENDED.

JUST ASK SOUTH CAROLINACONGRESSMAN AND GUY WHO PUT HIS

WIG ON BACKWARDS .

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )TREY GOWDY.

>> I WOULD SAY THIS TO THE-- TOTHE PROFESSOR.

PUT DOWN THE COGNAC, AND THELOST WRITINGS OF J.D. SALINGER.

IF YOU WANT TO SEE HOW STUPIDOUR FELLOW CITIZENS ARE, TAKE A

LOOK AT LAST TUESDAY NIGHT.

>> Stephen: YES, IF YOU WANTTO SEE HOW STUPID AMERICANS ARE,

JUST LOOK AT WHO THEY ELECTEDLAST TUESDAY.

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )IN YOUR FACE.

THESE ARE SMART GUYS.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING WASTING TIMEON SALINGER'S LOST STORIES?

THE ONLY GOOD ONE IS "A GIRL IKNEW."

IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT THROUGH"HAPWORTH 16" YOU'RE GOING TO

NEED SOMETHING STRONGER THANCOGNAC.

OF COURSE, I DON'T HAVE TO TELLYOU, DEMOCRATS ARE.

MANIPULATIVE ELITISTS. FOX WILLDO IT FOR ME.

>> THE ENTIRE PROCESS OF GETTINGTHIS PASSED WAS ALL PREDICATED

ON MANIPULATING, LYING TO THEAMERICAN PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY

KNEW THEY COULDN'T GET IT PASSEDANY OTHER WAY.

>> THEY NEW EXWOOU THIS KIND OFSTUFF THE WHOLE TIME, THEY GIEW

EXWOOU IT, AND THEY AGREED WITHGRUBER THAT IS NOT THE TYPE OF

THING YOU COULD TALK ABOUTPUBLICLY BECAUSE IT WOULD KILL

THE BILL.

>> DO YOU THINK THEY GAVE ARAT'S YOU KNOW WHAT?

THEY DON'T CARE. THEY GOT WHATTHEY WANTED.

>> Stephen: YES! CONTEMPTUOUSDEMOCRATS LOOKED DOWN ON

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FROM THEIRIVORY TOWERS

AND THOUGHT WHAT A PATHETICHORDE OF DULLARDS.

LET'S GIVE THEM HEALTH CARE.

WHEREAS.

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )IT'S SHAMEFUL.

IT'S SHAMEFUL.

FOR SHAME.

WHEREAS, REPUBLICANS RESPECTEDTHE VOTERS' INTELLIGENCE BY

TELLING THEM THE DEATH PANELSWOULD GRIND UP YOUR GRANDMA TO

MAKE GLUE.

AND PROFESSOR NUMB NUTS HEREWASN'T EVEN THE WORST THING TO

HAPPEN TO OBAMACARE THIS WEEK,BECAUSE ON FRIDAY THE SUPREME

COURT AGREED TO HEAR YET ANOTHERLEGAL CHALLENGE THAT COULD KILL

THE LAW.

IT'S LIKE THE OLD SAYING-- THEWHEELS OF JUSTICE GRIND SLOWLY,

BUT EVENTUALLY THEY'LL RUN OVERSICK PEOPLE.

( LAUGHTER )NOW, THE LAST TWO TIMES I

DECLARED OBAMACARE DEAD, IDROPPED BALLOONS, AND TWERKED ON

THE GRIM REAPER.

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ).

BUT, FOLKS, LOOKING BACK--( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )

LOOKING BACK, I THINK THAT WAS ALITTLE IMMATURE.

SO TONIGHT, WE'RE GONNA SLOWDANCE.

JIMMY?

♪ ♪♪ I JUST CLOSE MY EYES AND I'M

WITH YOU.

♪ AND ALL THAT I SO WANT TO GIVEYOU.

♪ IS ONLY A HEARTBEAT AWAY ♪>> YOU CANNOT-- YOU CANNOT BLAME

GUY FOR TRYING.

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )OH!

I LOVE-- I LOVE WATCHING YOUWALK AWAY.

( LAUGHTER )NOW, FOLKS, OF COURSE, THERE IS

A VERY GOOD REASON MILLIONS OFPEOPLE MAY LOSE THEIR HEALTH

INSURANCE.

CLUMSY SEMANTICS.

YOU SEE, IN THE CASE "KING V.BURWELL"

THE PLAINTIFFS ARGUE THAT SINCETHE EXACT WORDS OF THE

LAW SAY SUBSIDIES ARE INTENDEDFOR THOSE WHO ARE "ENROLLED IN

THROUGH AN EXCHANGE ESTABLISHEDBY THE STATE, SUBSIDIES CANNOT

BE AVAILABLE ON THEhealthcare.gov EXCHANGE."

SO IT ALL COMES DOWN TO A FEWSLOPPY, ILL-CONSIDERED WORDS,

AND FOR ONCE, THEY'RE NOT JOEBIDEN'S.

SO BOTTOM LINE, THIS LAW ISDEAD, AND I WILL BROOK NO

DISSENT ON THE ISSUE.

HERE TO FORD MY BROOK IS THE"COLBERT REPORT" SENIOR

LEGAL ANALYST AND PERSONACTUALLY EMPLOYED BY THE "NEW

YORK TIMES" MAGAZINE, EMILYBAZELON. EMILY, THANK YOU SO

MUCH FOR BEING BACK. GOOD TO SEEYOU AGAIN.

ALL RIGHT, EMILY, IS THIS ADEATH KNELL FOR OBAMACARE?

>> NO, IT SHOULD NOT BE BECAUSE

THERE ARE PLENTY OF REASONS WHENYOU READ THE 900-PAGE AFFORDABLE

CARE ACT AS A WHOLE, THE WORDSYOU SINGLED OUT NEED TO BE READ

IN SUCH A WAY THAT ALLOWSUBSIDIES FOR PEOPLE WHO ENROLL

IN THE FEDERALLY CREATEDEXCHANGES.

>> Stephen: OKAY, BUT I DIDN'TSINGLE IT OUT.

THE CASE SINGLED IT OUT.

THE SUPREME COURT IS HEARING THECASE.

THEY MUST THINK THEY'RE PRETTYIMPORTANT WORDS.

THE WORDS SAY, "THROUGH ASTATE," OK?

A STATE IS NOT FEDERALGOVERNMENT, RIGHT?

>> A STATE IS NOT THE FEDERALGOVERNMENT.

>> Stephen: OKAY, THANK YOUFOR BEING HERE.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

DID I JUST WIN? DID I JUST WIN?

>> NO, YOU DIDN'T WIN, BECAUSETHE IRS IS THE AGENCY WHO HAS

THE POWER TO INTERPRET THE LAWUPON.

I KNOW IT'S NOT YOUR FAVORITEAGENCY --

>> Stephen: IT'S NO ONE'SFAVORITE AGENCY.

>> IT'S STILL THE I.R.S.' JOB,AND THE I.R.S. SAYS WE'RE

READING THIS LAW AS A WHOLECOHERENTLY.

IN CONTEXT, IT IS CLEAR THATSTATE EXCHANGES SET UP BY THE

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT-- THEY'RESTILL STATE EXCHANGES-- CAN

STILL GIVE PEOPLE THESESUBSIDIES.

COURTS ARE SUPPOSED TO DEFER TOAGENCIES, THE I.R.S.' READING OF

THE LAW, NOT MAKE IT UPTHEMSELVES.

>> Stephen: SO LET'S JUSTIMAGINE FOR A MOMENT THAT THE

WHISTLING PAST THE GRAVEYARDYOU'RE DOING WILL NOT WORK.

>> OKAY.

>> Stephen: AND THEY RULE INFAVOR

OF THE PEOPLE WHO SAY YOU CAN'TGET MONEY THROUGH THE FEDERAL

EXCHANGES.

WHAT HAPPENS TO THE LAW THEN?

>> THE LAW COULD GO INTO A DEATHSPIRAL, AS YOU WERE SAYING

BEFORE, BECAUSE MILLIONS OFPEOPLE SIGNED UP THROUGH

FEDERALLY RUN EXCHANGES ARERECEIVING SUBSIDIES.

THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO AREREQUIRED TO SIGN UP FOR HEALTH

INSURANCE, WANT HEALTHINSURANCE, PRESUMABLY, BUT THEY

CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY FOR IT ONTHEIR OWN.

SO THE SUPREME COURT WOULD BESTRIPPING FROM THEM ALL THE

MONEY ALLOWING THESE MILLIONS OFPEOPLE TO HAVE HEALTH CARE,

EFFECTIVELY TAKING HEALTH CAREFROM MILLIONS OF PEOPLE.

>> Stephen: BUT DOESN'T THATREFLECT THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE?

BECAUSE LAST TUESDAY, THEAMERICAN PEOPLE VOTED, AND THEY

SAID WITH A SINGLE VOICE, NOHEALTH CARE, THANKS.

( LAUGHTER ).

>> WELL, NO, NO, BECAUSECONGRESS DID PASS OBAMACARE.

IT'S HARD TO REMEMBER NOW, BUTCONGRESS --

>> Stephen: I DON'T,ACTUALLY.

I DON'T, ACTUALLY.

>> CONGRESS PASSED OBAMACARE.

AND WHILE THE PAST CONGRESSTRIED --

>> Stephen: BUT WE DON'T KNOWWHAT THEY MEANT.

IF ONLY THOSE PEOPLE WERE STILLALIVE TO ASK THEM WHAT THEY

MEANT.

>> BUT WE DO HAVE THOSE PEOPLEAND NOT A SINGLE ONE OF THEM

HAVE SAID THEY INTENDED TORESTRICT SUBSIDIES TO STATE-RUN

EXCHANGES.

THEY ALL SAY NO.

EVERYONE IS SUPPOSED TO GETTHESE SUBSIDIES.

EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO VOTEDFOR THAT LAW.

>> Stephen: WILL THAT HAVEANYTHING TO DO WITH THE SUPREME

COURT'S RULING ON THIS?

>> WELL, THAT DEPENDS ON WHETHERCONGRESSIONAL INTENT, THIS IDEA

OF LOOKING AT WHAT LEGISLATORSWERE TRYING TO DO, HAS ANY

WEIGHT WITH THE JUSTICES.

>> Stephen: SOTOMAYOR ANDKAGAN AND BREYER, ALL THOSE

GUYS, THEY-- ALL THE LIBERALJUSTICES, I HAPPEN TO KNOW

THAT AT ONE TIME OR ANOTHER,THEY HAVE BEEN SICK,

SO SHOULDN'T THEY HAVE TO RECUSETHEMSELVES?

>> YOU THINK THEY'RE THE ONLYONES WHO HAVE BEEN SICK?

>> Stephen: SCALIA HAS NEVERBEEN SICK A DAY IN HIS LIFE.

NO, YOU EAT THAT MUCHPROSCIUTTO, NOTHING CAN LIVE

INSIDE OF YOU.

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ).

SO WHAT HAPPENS? SO IF THEY RULEAGAINST THE OBAMACARE THING

OBAMACARE THING, IF THE FEDERAL

EXCHANGES AREN'T ABLE TO GIVEANY MONEY, IS THERE ANYTHING

THEY CAN DO AFTER THAT?

CAN THE SUPPORTERS OF OBAMACAREAPPEAL TO THE JUSTICE LEAGUE OR

THE LEGION OF DOOM OR THEAVENGERS OR ANYTHING LIKE

THAT.

>> THEY COULD APPEAL TOCONGRESS.

CONGRESS COULD FIX THIS VERYEASILY.

BUT DO YOU THINK CONGRESS ISREALLY GOING TO DO THAT?

>> Stephen: NO.

EMILY, THANK YOU SO MUCH FORJOINING ME.

EMILY BAZELON, THE "NEW YORKTIMES" MAGAZINE.

WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

THANK YOU.

>> Stephen: WELCOME BACK,EVERYBODY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, YOU KNOW,I TRY NOT TO REPEAT MYSELF, BUT

I HAVE LONG WARNED YOU, I HAVELONG WARNED YOU ABOUT THE

SCOURGE OF GAY MARRIAGE.

WELL, YESTERDAY, ITMAN-ON-MANAGED TO SPREAD TO THE

PLACE I CARE ABOUT THE THE MOST.

>> A GROUNDBREAKING RULING ASSOUTH CAROLINA BECOMES THE

33rd STATE IN THE NATION TORECOGNIZE SAME-SEX MARRIAGE.

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ).

>> A FEDERAL JUDGE IN SOUTHCAROLINA STRIKING DOWN THAT

STATE'S BAN ON SAME-SEXMARRIAGE.

>> THE JUDGE IN SOUTH CAROLINARULED THAT STATE'S BAN WAS

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

>> Stephen: A FEDERAL JUDGEHAS RULED THAT SOUTH CAROLINA

MUST RECOGNIZE GAY MARRIAGE?

THAT IS OUTRAGEOUS!

WHEN DID SOUTH CAROLINA STARTRECOGNIZING THE FEDERAL

GOVERNMENT?

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )FOLKS, I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN.

FOLKS AS A NATIVE SON OF THEPALMETTO STATE, I AM DEEPLY

DISTURBED.

THIS IS THE WORST THING THAT HASHAPPENED TO SOUTH CAROLINA SINCE

SOMEONE FOUND MARK SANFORD.

( APPLAUSE )THIS RULING IS A SURRENDER TO

THE GAY AGENDA, OR AS WE CALLIT, THE WAR OF SAME-SEX

AGGRESSION.

THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW, THEFLAG FLYING ON OUR STATE CAPITOL

GROUNDS WILL LOOK LIKE THIS.

AND, FOLKS, IT IS THE STARS ANDBARS, NOT THE STARS AND GAY

BARS.

, OF COURSE, IN ALL OF THIS,THERE IS ONE PERSON I FEEL MOST

FOR HERE-- ME.

BECAUSE SOUTH CAROLINA IS WHEREI

TRADITIONALLY MARRIED MY FEMALEWIFE WOMAN, LORRAINE.

AS GOD INTENDED.

AND AS WAS THE ONLY LEGAL OPTIONAT THE TIME.

( LAUGHTER )SENT, YEARS LATER, YEARS AFTER I

HAVE SPENT WITH MY BEAUTIFULBRIDE, ALL OF THAT SEEMS LIKE A

TOTAL WASTE.

I MEAN-- I-- WOULD I HAVEGOTTEN GAY MARRIED IF I COULD AT

THE TIME?

, OF COURSE, NOT.

DID I HAVE SOMEONE IN MIND?

WHO'S ASKING?

WAS IT BRAD?

DOES HE EVER MENTION ME?

I, FOR ONE, WILL NEVER FORGIVETHIS ACTIVIST JUDGE WHO BROUGHT

GAY MARRIAGE TO MY STATE ANDWHOSE NAME WILL LIVE IN INFAMY,

RICHARD GERGEL.

IN FACT, I WOULD BE SHOCKED IFAFTER THIS SCANDALOUS GAY

MARRIAGE RULING ANYONE IN SOUTHCAROLINA EVER NAMED THEIR CHILD

DICK GERGEL.

BECAUSE YOU, SIR, YOU, HAVEFOREVER TARNISHED THE REPUTATION

OF OUR FAIR STATE!

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE )YOU HAVE FOREVER TARNISHED THE

REPUTATION OF OUR STATE, WHICHSAYS A LOT BECAUSE SOUTH

CAROLINA HAS DONE SOME( BLEEP ).

WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
