Apparently. Someone even resurrected a dead, year old thread about it.

Something gives me the feeling you're mocking me. And right now, in the mood I'm in, I'm not going to tolerate any mocking of me.

I thought it was done, dead, and gone when a Federal judge declared it unconstitutional...

Really? You thought one Fed judge has the final say? That isn't how the law works.

There have now been three district court rulings upholding all of the health-care reform law, and two striking down the individual mandate as unconstitutional.

The issue will be "done" when the SCOTUS lays down their ruling.
