American In Name Only
Yes, that’s the ONLY way to describe ANYONE who would vote to reelect Saddam Barack, that’s it, Barack Hussein Obama after the comments he made regarding the Supreme Court, in the event that they overturn Commu- ObamaCare.
Ultimately, I’m confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell blasted President Obama on Thursday, telling him to “back off” from comments earlier this week where he appeared to question the constitutional powers of the Supreme Court and the possibility that it could overturn his health care law.
“The president crossed a dangerous line this week,” the Kentucky Republican said to the Lexington Rotary Club, “and anyone who cares about liberty needs to call him out on it. The independence of the court must be defended.”
On Monday, Mr. Obama suggested it would be “activist” and an “unprecedented, extraordinary step” for the nine “unelected” justices to overturn the law, prompting outcries from leading Republicans and many legal scholars that he was trying to intimidate the court.
Ann Coulter puts things in even clearer perspective, as always.
The reason tea partiers carried signs saying “Read the Constitution!” was that we were hoping people would read the Constitution.
SNIP!
…and the former law professor, Barack Obama, alleging that a “good example” of judicial activism would be the Supreme Court (in his words, “a group of people”) overturning “a duly constituted and passed law.”
I don’t know how a court could overturn a law that hasn’t been “passed.” Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a law, it would be a bill. If it hasn’t even been “constituted,” it wouldn’t be anything at all.
Of course the courts can overturn laws — constituted and passed alike! If anything, the Supreme Court isn’t striking down enough laws.
SNIP!
On Monday, President Obama shocked even his fellow liberals when he claimed that it would be “an unprecedented, extraordinary step” for the Supreme Court to overturn “a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress.” (Which Obamacare wasn’t.)
He added: “I’d just remind conservative commentators that for years what we’ve heard is the biggest problem on the bench was judicial activism or a lack of judicial restraint.”
I guess now we know why Obama won’t release his college and law school transcripts!
It was so embarrassing that Obama attempted a clarification on Tuesday, but only made things worse. He said: “We have not seen a court overturn a law that was passed by Congress on an economic issue, like health care,” since the ’30s.
Except in 1995. And then again in 2000. (Do we know for a fact that this guy went to Columbia and Harvard Law?)
LOL!
This guy is shaping up to be a dictator wannabe.
It seems to me that anyone who would even consider voting to keep O in the White House for another four years is anything BUT patriotic, at least where the United States of America is concerned.
If they were, they would see some value in observing the Constitution, not in using it for a door mat as Mr. Obama certainly has for the last 38 months.
Perhaps they ARE patriotic, but just to some communist country or other, certainly not to America!
