. >> staying with us for some analysis are kate hunter and lisa mascaro. what did you make of the congressmen's take on this? >> i think it is really interesting that he said the health care bill is a requirement that is enforced by a tax. when democrats were pushing this through congress, they were very adamant that this was not a tax. the court's ruling left not a lot of wiggle room. he basically acknowledged that is a tax. >> republicans are seizing on the tax issue and making a fairly clear that that will be a cornerstone of the argument against the health care bill moving forward to november. i think we still see democrats do not have a response to that. congressman waxman gave us a sort of framework that could be helpful for the democrats as they make their arguments, which is, you know, it is similar to what happened in this country with tobacco. congressman waxman was at the forefront years ago to put regulations on tobacco and to begin what many would consider very high taxes on cigarettes. they are taxes that many americans do not seem to mind. t
