Maybe SCOTUS is trying to back away from the conflict of swearing someone into office while considering a lawsuit which claims that person is ineligible...
NAH, it’s tea and crumpets.
IMO, it sure seems more than just a passing coincidence. Hopefully more on this will come out real soon.
I’ve been wondering why SCOTUS has been denying these cases lately. Now it all makes sense! They’ve been spiffing up their chambers, sweeping and polishing and getting the good china ready for their audience with The One. After all, there are only so many hours in a day and a judge must set priorities! Furthermore, they wouldn’t want to talk about an invited guest behind his back. Conferencing about these unseemly lawsuits would be downright rude.
The Irrelevant Nine are planning their menu and pressing their robes as we speak. That whole “judging” thing is vastly overrated anyway.
Let them eat cake!
You said — “NAH, it’s tea and crumpets.”
No, it is tea and crumpets, along with an appeal for a raise. No, really! They do want a raise and they’ve already voiced this in public. So, I think they’re gonna “make a case” for the incoming President on this issue. That’s the best reason I can see for Obama being invited...
