Dems Warn Of ‘Grave Damage’ To SCOTUS If ‘Obamacare’ Is Struck Down

standing before cameras and mics Wednesday in front of the court.
Imagine the Justices standing on the steps of the Capital Building bemoaning some law the Senators were debating. I'd like to see the Chief Justice have these knuckleheads removed by U S Marshalls.

“Everybody learns in the first year of law school that the law that’s challenged is presumed to be constitutional,” Blumenthal said. “That is a heavy burden for anyone challenging the constitutionality of a law to overcome. When in doubt, uphold the law. There is a lot of room for doubt here, and there is a lot of clear precedent that requires this court to uphold this law.”

Barf! What rubbish!! The RATS did everything they could to ram this down our throats, illegally using the reconcilation procedure, excluding the Republicans, and then now claim it is the most constitutionally protected bill ever put forth! The Rats are smoking weed!

[Sybeck1]

Read the comments if you want to see some brazenly stupid thoughts from liberals.

[central_va]

It doesn't matter what it is, what's in it, or how unconstitutional it is. If it becomes law, it will be next to impossible to overcome.

I think this time we will have justice and the thing will be killed by the SCOTUS 5-4. Should be slam dunk 9-0 but that is not possible with the leftards we have now on the SCOTUS.

[Soul of the South]

“If like Kerry says this has been totally vetted, why did they exclude Republicans completely from participating?”

If like Kerry says this has been totally vetted, why did they not allow the American people and Congress time to read the bill before it was voted on?

[RogerWilko]

How can you vet legislation you never read?

Mannnn... You're not supposed to ask questions like that!

You've got to TRUST AND BELIIIEVVVEEE!!!

[TLI]

Do liberals really think this way?

The court depends for its power on its Constitutional status as the highest level of the judicial branch of government..

No suprise at this at all.

This entire class of people are products of a lifetime of ignoring reality and removing all responsibility and consequence for their actions from their lives.

Of course they think that way. It is just another example, one in a never ending stream, of the defective thought process of communist agenda democrats.

It goes like this...

“This is what I just thought up, therefore everyone must accept it as reality. If they do not the only possible reasons are they are “haters” or bigoted/racist right wing extremists. I am the “progressive liberal” here, therefore my statements must be correct.”

In the mean time everyone with a shred of ordinary common sense is laughing at these idiots for standing on their heads screaming that “everybody they see is upside down.”

There is NO reform or cure for that.

I have posted this a few times, looks like it has come around again...





They are beyond help, they do not have the capacity to be educated out of communism disguised as "liberalism and progressiveness." They can not or refuse to see the destructive nature of the communism disguised as "liberalism and progressiveness" they promote.

What the supporters of communist "liberalism and progressiveness" will destroy is the very nation that gave them their freedom. They will complain, demonize, belittle and protest when opposed but only preserving this Republic in it’s original context will continue to give them their freedom to complain and protest against it.

They will not stop destroying this nation of their own accord.

The only way to preserve freedom for American Citizens in this Republic is suppression of the communist supporters. "Taking the high road" is rapidly becoming something to be put on the shelf for a while. It is now time to step up, get in their face and refuse any other narrative other than they are worthless communist agenda bastards undeserving of a place in this Republic.

Worthless communist agenda bastards undeserving of a place in this Republic.





So, how?

One battle at a time and they will kick, scream, curse and fight the return of their freedom and sane behavior every inch of the way. If some semblance of our former Republic can be restored they will require constant observation. The communists will revert to demanding total control faster than can be understood by rational thought as rational thought is not understood by communists.

The supporters of communist "liberalism and progressiveness" will NEVER be normal freedom loving American Citizens. It is my understanding of history that not that long ago American Citizens put freedom before communism and put communist traitors in jail.

Worked once, ought to work again.

Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) said the law has been thoroughly vetted.

“
How can you vet legislation you never read? “

Folks, we have a WINNER!!

[Despot of the Delta]

Looks like White House Insider is right again.

“The court commands no armies, it has no money; it depends for its power on its credibility. The only reason people obey it is because it has that credibility. And the court risks grave damage if it strikes down a statute of this magnitude and importance, and stretches so dramatically and drastically to do it.”

READ: If the court doesn't rule the way we want, we don't have to obey the court.

[cpa4you]

After that shameful thing Obozo did during the last “State of the Union” speech where he made negative comments about the Court. I believe I’d be very careful about any challenges or implied threats to or about the Court. Be they Big Time judges, they are still human and can respond, in their own way, to what might be said or done!

[stephenjohnbanker]

” Logic would lead you to believe that it is difficult to vet something that you have not read and need to pass to see what it says.”

Kerry and the rest of the liars wouldn’t get away with this, if we conservatives had ANY leadership WHATSOEVER!!

[moehoward]

“The court commands no armies, it has no money; it depends for its power on its credibility. The only reason people obey it is because it has that credibility. "

There's a lot of truth to that statement. (BTW when referring to SCOTUS court is always Court.) The Court from the beginning feared being rendered irrelevant if their rulings were ignored. And since they have "no armies" they cannot force their rulings. Thus they have a long history of splitting the baby.

"And the court risks grave damage if it strikes down a statute of this magnitude and importance, and stretches so dramatically and drastically to do it.”

That is the scary part. It sounds like a threat that if the Court does not rule their way, they will ignore the ruling.

[DustyMoment]

A handful of Senate Democrats sought to assure doubtful liberals that the Supreme Court justices aren’t ready to strike down their crowning achievement, standing before cameras and mics Wednesday in front of the court. One warned that doing so would ruin the court’s credibility.

Are these fools threatening the SCOTUS!!???

[servo1969]

Your right. Their hubris is unbelievable.

They might as well be standing on a hilltop, wearing copper armor, during a lightning storm, shaking their fists at the sky and yelling “All the gods are bastards!”

“As a senior member of the Finance Committee,” he said, “I can tell you that we had one of the most rigorous and transparent legislative processes that I have witnessed in almost 3 decades here in the Congress.

Uh Johnny boy, given that nobody had even read this bill, just what does that tell us about the rest of what goes on inside the crapitol?

[Oberon]

That’s because they’re never in doubt about those kinds of laws.

Wednesday, I posted the following. I noticed that Rush L. voiced similar concerns today. [Did he read my post?]

Justices poised to strike down entire healthcare law

TomGuy to Bill Buckner

Don’t bet the farm on it just so you can play MegaMillions.

As Rush said yesterday, be wary of the justices’ words and their possible actions.

They will be striking down the most major accomplishment of Obama’s presidency, if they do.

I would be leary of thinking they would subject the first black president to such a humiliation. They will find some way to salvage a major part of the bill.

[Kenton]

I think they're referring to the idea that the courts will rule that the Democrats can't continue to misuse the Interstate Commerce Clause as justification for any damn thing they want it to mean. That might upset the justification for the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

I understand why they're sweating bullets.
