Obama contends (1) it would be unprecedented for the Supreme Court to strike down as unconstitutional a law passed by Congress and (2) Obamacare was passed by "a strong majority of ... Congress."

Both points are prime examples of the historical revisionism that the left so frequently engages in. Even the CBS writer of the posted article (as well as any American citizen with a decent knowledge of American history) knows that federal courts have been engaged in vetting the constitutionality of statutes passed by Congress, i.e., "judicial review," since Marbury v. Madison in 1803.

As to the second point, we all know that Obamacare passed the House by a very slim margin and that it passed the Senate by a small margin only via the use of "reconciliation," which averted its defeat by filibuster. "Stong majority"? Anything but!

Yes, my FRiend, without an objective press, Obama gets to create whatever propaganda of revisionism he wants, from one day to the next.

Generally, racial and ethnic minorities take Obama at his word, and so he is creating the foundation for mayhem.Thats his job and his greatest calling.

Good Read:
