bill is unconstitutional? >> i mean, when you've got liberal media journalists, liberal professors at every ivy league campus disavowingf they overturned obamacare, you better get some new messengers and messages. i think it's fascinating because you've got even liberal organizations like fact check.org saying that obama had to quote, unquote, eat his words. >> gretchen: the amazing thin is that it wasn't just about attacking supreme court within that same dialogue. he also said healthcare passed by a majority, a big majority. overwhelming majority. and it was 216-212 -- 219. whatever. >> that's right. of course, a healthy number of democrats who voted on the other side of the aisle. then, of course, the third baldly false claim there, of course, was that obamacare is merely an economic issue because when he had to backtrack, this is how he sort of tried to introduce nuance. where will, what he really meant to say is the supreme court hadn't overturned laws that deal with economic liberty when, of course, over the last several months, there have been many, many catholics and other religious healthcare providers who mad
