White House Tells Supreme Court to Stay Away from Obamacare
michellemalin.com ^ | March 15, 2011 | Doug Powers

Senator Schumer is pretty sure that the Supreme Court is not one of the equal but separate branches of government, so as such it’s possible that Chuck’s advised the White House that they have the power to tell the Supreme Court what to do:

The Obama administration told the Supreme Court on Monday night it should stay away from a high-profile challenge to the 2010 health care law until after a lower court has had a chance to review the case.

Acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal wrote, “there is no basis for short-circuiting the normal course of appellate review.” Katyal also says Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli’s case is problematic because he may lack sufficient standing to challenge the health care law. [...] In his filing last month, Cuccinelli said there’s a “palpable consensus” that the high court will ultimately have to pass judgment on the merits of President Obama’s health care law and should do so without delay. Furthermore, Cuccinelli argues that his case involves “pure issues of constitutional law” that appellate judges on the Fourth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals will be unable to definitively resolve. Team Obama has said they’re absolutely convinced of the health care law’s constitutionality, so with that in mind wouldn’t you think they’d welcome a fast-track opinion on the law and ultimate thumbs-up from the Supreme Court?

It’s not the Army or the military as a whole that I worry about. It’s the POS in the Whitehouse and his fellow travellers that worry me.

Good thread, Procon!

This over-rated Chicago lackey thinks way too highly of himself! I hope the Supremes show him how it really goes down! :)

It would be nice if once...just once...those who keep screaming about “separation of church and state” would honor the silly old idea of “separation of powers.”

They need more time to get one of the Conservative justices to retire...... or to bring phony charges up to muddy the waters....

No question, they want 'time' to serve them. There should be NO reason, to accomodate these pathetic actors. I do hope Court will let Obama have it - where it hurts. In the Courts, and immediately. . .

Only in our dreams but this SC is very passive. As the nation burns they sit on their buns. There is no place to turn in this world but toward God. If this bill is not found in it’s entirety to be unconstitutional then there must be an all out revolution or live in a communist state.

Do you think his admin has theatened their families?

Can we impeach him NOW?

While there’s still something left of America?

Correct me if I am wrong; is there not a “Separation of Powers” in our U.S. Constitution? This guy is hell bent on stripping our constitution into threads.

To be fair, Andrew Jackson thought the same way as has probably a lot of presidents.

beware the contrived crisis....

maybe this is just the second shot at the SCOTUS, preparing them to cower when the administration pulls out all the stops over the Japan situation...

(looneys have been calling their lib radio stations asking if they can plant their organic gardens with all that radiation in Japan...Moochelle might have to WEIGH in on this....)

Sounds like they’ve given up on the “Clarence Thomas must recuse himself” meme. This is the next line of defense, I guess.

Why is a little blurb article from 9am Tuesday, about something that happened Monday night, in breaking news?
