The version of Obamacare that became law originated in the Senate.
Are you positive this matches the legislative history? The law does contain actual tax increases (e.g., payroll, medical devices, etc.) so there's no natural reason to suspect such an obvious foot-fault would be in the law. And if it were, I'm sure we'd have argued that before the court, too.
[Update: I see that point's been made in the Hot Air post linked above as well.]
