Democrats' Bad Bet Comes Due Tomorrow
Breitbart's Big Government ^ | June 27, 2012 | Mike Flynn

Posted on 06/27/2012 10:51:25 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Tomorrow, at around 10:30am EDT, the Democrat-left-media complex will launch the most aggressive and sustained attack on the institution of the Supreme Court in the history of our Republic. When the Court throws out at least some portion of ObamaCare tomorrow, President Obama and his partisans on the left and in the media will effectively declare war on the third co-equal branch of government and seek, in every possible way, to undermine the legitimacy of the Court.

They have already tried to lay the groundwork for their attacks. Politico today even unearthed disgraced former Congressman Anthony Weiner to test-drive the coming partisan attacks against the Court. Glimpses of these attacks have been around since oral arguments back in March, but when the reality of the Court's rejection of Obama's signature "achievement" becomes clear, the ferociousness of the attacks will be like nothing we've ever seen. It bears repeating: the left is willing to destroy the credibility of the Supreme Court in order to defend their policy failure.

ObamaCare was never popular with the public. In fact, it was so unpopular that it sparked a nation-wide grass roots movement that led to sweeping losses of Democrat elected officials at every level of government. Today, you'd be hard-pressed to find any Democrat in a competitive race running in support of the law.

Remember that when the left starts screaming that the Court is somehow going against the public interest. In fact, anything less than scrapping the entire law would be going against what the public wants. Today, a WSJ/NBC poll, which tends to juice its surveys to help Democrats, found that, by a 15 point margin, more adults would rather see the whole law scrapped than have it stand.

When Obama was inaugurated, Democrats had their largest congressional majorities in decades...

I listened to progressive radio on my way home. They are already spinning this about activist judges and the white guys on the court who are against Obama because he is black.

The court will lose regardless of which way they decide tomorrow, because it has become a political tool, and a joke.

Not so.

If it throws out the mandate for cause, and the rest of it for lack of severance, it will be a Constitutional hero.

Anything less, will stink literally to high heaven.

There is nothing more dangerous than a liberal democrat losing power.

I am truly afraid for our country between now and January 2013

Very true words. And Anthony Weiner wanted to ask a question, but couldn’t get his hands out of his pants long enough to get called on.

I wrote on another thread what happens if this usurping POS is upheld? Almost all the media expects it to be thrown out, but it will be devastating news to everyone but the MSM and those who enacted it if the monstrosity is maintained! I would at the very least prepare for the possibility of some of it being preserved.

Any part of Obamacare allowed to be left standing will be a disaster for this nation and the whole country knows it!
