There was the Warren Court.

Now these idiot Dems have given us the WAR ON COURT.

“Do liberals really think this way?”

Socialists think that way, yep. This was the famous joke of Joseph Stalin on being informed that the Allied cause was supported by the Pope. “How may battalions does the Pope have?”

I’ll bet ol’ obama is wishing that he hadn’t pissed the scrotums off in his state of the union address. Payback is a bitch and now it’s getting paid back...

"The court commands no armies, it has no money; it depends for its power on its credibility."

Sounds like Blumenthal is paraphrasing Stalin when he asked; "How many divisions does the Pope have?"

They pretty much just threatened the Supreme Court.

Who are they to talk about credibility, anyway?

Are they going to 'Breitbart' them? Maybe have Black Panthers put out 'Wanted - Dead or Alive" posters - with big rewards?

Or threaten their parents and families?

Or stick the 'oh so biased New York Times and Washington Post on them?

Spooooo many ways to be thuggy - so little time.

Sounds like one here too. Sounds like they are threatening to ignore the ruling.

The biggest detriment to the bill is in the one justice who asked why they should be the ones to go through the 2700 page bill and pick-and-choose what to keep and what to throw out.

That would seem to indicate that the justices don’t want that task.

[I hope they declare it, in its entirety, unconstitutional. Send it back to Congress. Let Nancy read it and find out what is in it.]

Remember that the Constitution is an impediment to these people. They want it to be replaced with something more to their liking - like the Canadian Charter of Rights. The Charter is a very nice document all of whose clauses and codicils are utterly negated by the ‘notwithstanding clause’.

In short: Canadians have rights except when those rights are inconvenient to their rulers.

Obama and his crowd like things like that.

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

Let me get home and get a glass of wine before I tackle that.

“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.

Dude! The Senate dropped their own legislation and picked up the House version lock, stock and barrel without debate and passed it using a technicality. What rigor was involved here?

I’m not going to hold my breath. Kennedy appears to be reasonable, but I’m not going to count on him. I don’t want to get my hopes up to have them dashed. I’ll wait for the ruling.

“The court commands no armies, it has no money; it depends for its power on its credibility."

Wow. That's quite a statement. “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. We worked with some of the brightest, most thoughtful and experienced constitutional lawyers in order to make sure that the law was constitutional.”

Yeah, that's what was being reported during the whole process. Nothing but "transparency" the whole way.

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

How can you vet legislation you never read?


Even worse -- remember when they were talking about sending it out 'deeming it to have passed' without it even being voted on?

I have always believed that liberals are so determined to get their way that they are willing to risk civil war to do so. I don’t know what the issue will be (maybe it’s this one) but one day it will happen. They are NOT going to allow rule of law, the constitution, will of the people, or any of that to keep them from getting what they want.

As far as I’m concerned, they can start now. Let it happen while I’m still young enough to carry a gun and fight. I would hate to see it start when I’m in my late 70s or 80s and unable to do my part.

Well then from their view the Court already trashed it’s credibility two years ago with Citizens United.

So who cares?

The SCOTUS was absolutely sacrosanct in the eyes of leftists during all those years it returned liberal decision after liberal decision. Now that they’re facing a possible significant loss, the Left is threatening it with quotes from Joseph Stalin: “How many divisions has the SCOTUS? Not enough to prevent us kicking their butts if they rule against us.”
