by Lyle Denniston
"For the second time, a federal judge with undoubted credentials as a conservative jurist has concluded that Congress had ample authority to enact the new federal health care law, giving the Obama Administration a new and significant victory just as the Supreme Court is about to take up the constitutional controversy. Senior U.S. Circuit Judge Laurence H. Silberman of the D.C. Circuit Court, who is among the most conservative of all federal judges, expressed some misgivings on Tuesday about the breadth of the key part of the new law, but nevertheless took only 13 pages of brisk argument to declare that provision to be constitutional."
