And those four are individually a disgrace IMO.
And that possibly makes them illegitimate members on a legitimate court.
Interestingly enough, all of our elected, or appointed officials take an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States (not the government, and not the country, but the Constitution), and some people on the Supreme Court are the only ones that do, it seems.
Deciding a law is unconstitutional is hardly "unprecedented", and is not an "extraordinary step". President Obama knows this, as he is a Constitutional Law professor. His problem is he does not like the Constitution and thinks it is flawed. Which makes me wonder how he was able to take his oath of office in the first place.
ObamaCare is an unprecedented power grab, and is an extraordinary step in changing the relationship between the federal government and the citizens, and therefore will be found unconstitutional, and the whole 2700 page law will be thrown out.
But he calls the court illegitimate because they were not elected. So what then gives legitimacy to his czars and other appiontties who are making regulations and laws that are not elected by the people.
Obama is hell bent on having complete control over all decisions coming out of Washington. This makes him a very dangerous man.
How in the world can you think it's constitutional?
The left will not listen, the media will print what the dictator wants.
THEN?
The stage is set for the BIRTH CERTIFICATE ISSUE, the second item that will be ignored.
THEN?
You got it, item 3 to be ignored, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
You got it,
Do you feel we are being pushed that way?
It's a power and money grab, and it's unconstitutional.
Barry should stop believing his own BS. He's not a king even though he thinks he is in his own delusional liberal mind.
The Constitution was never meant to be written in stone and was intentionally designed by the FF to be a general outline to be interpreted by WE THE PEOPLE through our voting process.
We elect the congress and president based on a majority rule and the Supreme court is appointed by the Presidents after a thorough vetting process by congress, the media, and the people of the US. These positions are for life.
The SC Judges are picked from the Federal judges generally and have many years of experience and education in constitutional law.
Judges are still people and still fallible and prone to making decisions based on political or personal opinions so we have 9 SC judges to minimize that bias from influencing a majority decision.
SC judges are under constant scrutiny and if they show a bias or political agenda in their actions they can be recused from a case or even impeached if convicted in a Senate trial as happened with Samuel Chase.
Through history we have had left and right leaning SC courts and that has influenced decisions of the courts findings to please a certain agenda but for the most part our history...

Through history we have had left and right leaning SC courts and that has influenced decisions of the courts findings to please a certain agenda but for the most part our history shows a fairly balanced system that follows the constitution as it is interpreted by the people at the time the decision was made.
Obamacare is a tough issue that has never been addressed before and while there are precedents both for and against the mandate it will be up to the SC to determine if allowing the law to stand or fail will do more damage than good.
This is not a black or white issue and I think it will be based on how the SC sees it effecting the future powers of congress to make laws and the need for changes to a health care system that has not worked for many people of the country creating a system of discrimination.
I believe the law should stand but the SC may severe the mandate and let the rest of the law stand. I do not believe they will throw out the entire law because of the mandate.
The things Obama said today were despicable and not worthy of the office of the President of the USA.
If they declare this unconstitutional then we KNOW for sure they have been bought and paid for by the special corporate insterest.
With that said, we can no longer trust the government to protect our basic civil rights and it is time to remove the Gang of Five from their positions on the SCOTUS>
Americans will cheer and laugh as obama is defeated
