Why do I feel we’re so screwed?

Am I missing something. Judge did not accept the “we dont understand” rule. You have 7 days, is this not what we wanted?

May not be bad news. DOJ wanted to drag this out. Judge ordered it expedited.

Claire? Is it time yet?

“Why do I feel we’re so screwed?”

No, no! This is fantastic news. This means the Justice Department has seven days to put forth a winning case to the Circuit Court! Not only that, they have to do it with a case they have lost! Lost badly! The JD wanted to use one of the cases from a court that had ruled in their favor. In only seven days, the JD has to put forth an argument they may be “married” to when they go before the USSC! It’s somewhat like a deposition in that they can’t change or add to their argument once they quickly pull this case together in the next seven days. The JD was banking on making their argument to the USSC with a case they had won in the lower courts! Ha! As a law student, I think this is one of the best scenarios for the death of Obamacare.

Because we are. Thank all the “conservatives” who pitched a tantrum in ‘06 and ‘08 and stayed home because they diodn’t get the candidates they wanted.
