Basically, this forces the Department of Justice to expedite the appeals process, which they were clearly hoping to avoid. The dilatory tactics that Vinson blasts in this ruling almost certainly won’t impress the appellate court, either. Furthermore, the order forces the Obama administration to fight on Vinson’s ruling first and now rather than wait for a more friendly set of rulings and hope to marginalize Vinson down the road.

The White House asked for a clarification. They got a trip to the woodshed instead, and a very short time frame to stop the halt to ObamaCare that Vinson’s ruling creates.

Update: The effect of Vinson’s stay will be indefinite if the DoJ files for an expedited appeal within the seven-day limit. Therefore, there is no need to ask the appeals court or Supreme Court for a further stay. Thanks to Michael G for the correction.
