“Nobody would ever contend in his office, and he certainly is not contending, that the Supreme Court doesn’t have as its right and responsibility the ability to overturn laws passed by Congress as unconstitutional,” Carney said.

Hmm. Well apparently the 5th Circuit Court Justices think Obama was contending exactly that. I assume they are who Carney is referring to as the few people who did not understand it.

“[The president] was a law professor,” Carney added. “He understands constitutional law and constitutional precedent and the role of the Supreme Court, and is working diligently to undermine the Constitution and the Supreme Court.”

There, I fixed it!

Dumbo was just being nuanced. Shame on us for just being too stupid to hear what he actually said.

Why did he mention the number of years as 80 or 85. What is so magical about that number?

And Obama continues to be unpresidented himself.

I feel like Rush is that Obama is not idiot and knows exactly what he is doing.

Think Adolf Hitler.

Actually they whiffed on the clarification too.
The Supremes struck down at least 2 cases in the 90s where it said. Y a 5-4 margin that Congress exceeded its authority under the commerce clause.
See US v. Lopez (1995) and US v. Morrison (1998).
What idiots!

Dear Carney (what a delightfully appropriate name!), would you care to contrast “unelected” Supreme Court justices who face a confrimation process that is usually withering with the White House Czars?

"Carney: Obama remark about Supreme Court was misunderstood"

Translation: We didn't believe we would take such a hit in the polls so the Ministry of Truth (A.K.A. the MSM) is revamping our statement to conform with the new reality...
