Kagan Defies Judicial Ethics and Sits on Obamacare Case

WASHINGTON, March 26, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Freedom Watch Only Group to Raise Issue in Amicus Brief

Today, the Supreme Court began oral arguments on the constitutionality of one of the most controversial pieces of legislation in the past fifty years. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, referred to as "Obamacare," stretches the power of the federal government to a level never before seen. Yet this is not the most important decision the Court faces. Justice Elena Kagan, the former Solicitor General, is continuing to illegally preside over a case in which her impartiality has been seriously called into question.

Freedom Watch was the only group to file an amicus brief on the issue of Kagan's recusal and/or disqualification. Larry Klayman, the founder of Freedom Watch and before that Judicial Watch, has been the most ardent critic of the Court's avoidance of this issue. Never before has a justice, who championed legislation during its passage and crafted a legal defense for it, been able to preside over its validity. In no other court of the United States would this be acceptable.

The Supreme Court, in a showing of defiance that its impartiality would be called into question, not only refused to hear oral argument on the issue of recusal and/or disqualification from Mr. Klayman, but today Justice Kagan presided over the case. This is consistent with Chief Justice Roberts' outrageous claim that the Supreme Court is not bound to the same ethic standards as lower courts, and that these standards may be "unconstitutional" -- a fabricated position meant only to justify the court's illegal actions. This serves to delegitimize not only this decision but the Supreme Court as an institution.

Perhaps that is her goal. delegitimize ... The Supreme Court, and by inference, all prior decisions of same as well as the Constitution which begat it all.

Soo...

her name now is the “Unethical Elena Kagan”. Said over and over and over. No FReeper should refer to her in any other way. Name it.

I am hoping that once it is admitted and confirmed by the congress of the US that obozo has illegitimately held the office of the presidency, his two Supreme Court appointees shall be immediately removed without question.
