Has Kagan or another liberal Justice leaked SCOTUS Friday Obamacare vote to Obama?

President Obama has taken a very risky course if the Supreme Court voted Friday to uphold Obamacare. If he believed that were true, he would likely have said he has confidence in the judgement of the Supreme Court Justices. If he were unsure, he would also tread lightly. Instead, he fired a verbal barrage at the Court.

US President Barack Obama on Monday challenged the "unelected" Supreme Court not to take the "extraordinary" and "unprecedented" step of overturning his landmark health reform law.

In a highly combative salvo on a case which could have a critical impact on his reelection chances, Obama warned that health care for millions of people was at stake, even as nine Supreme Court justices deliberate the arguments.

"Ultimately, I am confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress," Obama said.

The US Supreme Court held compelling legal arguments on the health reform law, the centerpiece of Obama's political legacy, last week, amid a flurry of commentary predicting the law will ruled unconstitutional.

Obama noted that for years, conservatives had been arguing that the "unelected" Supreme Court should not adopt an activist approach by making rather than interpreting law, and held up the health legislation as an example. Read more here...

Justices rarely change their opinion after the initial vote, but it does happen. Justice Kennedy has been known to switch sides on major cases after the initial opinions are written.  President Obama may be hoping to pressure him to do so again. If he doesn't, President Obama has laid the groundwork for using this to motivate his base this November. It looks like he has been tipped off and the news wasn't good for him. If Obama was tipped off, many would suspect Kagan who was Obama's Solicitor General and an Obamacare supporter before her SCOTUS appointment.

Has Kagan or another liberal Justice leaked SCOTUS Friday Obamacare vote to Obama?

Well...duhhhh!

[USS Alaska]

“Do bears sh!t in the woods?”

Not polar bears.

Polar bears shit where ever they choose.

[Travis McGee]

Not in the woods, though. No woods around.

[djf]

Just because there are no trees doesn’t mean we’re out of the woods yet...

[Pappy Smear]

Ultimately, I am confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress," Obama said.

I saw him say this on a clip on my local news The written quote here missed all his umms and pauses. It took him about 20 seconds to say that. He was off prompter, and was stuttering and stammering to beat the band.

[Travis McGee]

That’s for sure.

[DooDahhhh]

Just like my parrott!

[jonascord]

Polar bears WILL be sh!tting in the palm trees.

If we are to believe the AGW idiots, who brag about how, in their infallible crystal ball, polar bears are going to need sun block, some time in the next 3 months...

Ask them if it's going to rain, tomorrow, though, and you are SOL. They don't have a problem with this.

[Jonah Hex]

Polar bears shat in iceholes and wipe with seals. They're the ursine Chuck Norris.

PJ, it is news like this that makes me thank God every day that I am old, retired, and no longer have to live in the USSA.
When I see that filthy Communist Obama on TV, I have to hit the remote to cut him off.
God only knows who leaks what, when, and where.

Let us all pray that he gets his comeuppance.

not to take the "extraordinary" and "unprecedented" step

Huh. You mean like the "extraordinary" and "unprecedented" steps that were taken to pass it?

Perhaps we need a little flashback to Pelosi (Speaker of the House at the time):

“We will go through the gate. If the gate is closed, we will go over the fence. If the fence is too high, we will pole vault in. If that doesn’t work, we will parachute in. But we are going to get health care reform passed for the American people for their own personal health and economic security and for the important role that it will play in reducing the deficit.”

Pelosi: Pole vaults and parachutes

[Phlap]

What about Mama Grizzlies? lol,p>

[G Larry]

But, you had to laugh when Obama fumbled his admonition and began to say “overturn”, but stopped at “over.....uh, uh, “.
This during his rose garden intrusion on the separation of powers.

Declaring an Unconstitutional Law as Unconstitutional is NOT activism and is NOT making law.

[GeronL]

I think it very likely that the cheerleader-stooge or the wise one did.

[evad]

"JUSTICE SCALIA: All right. The consequence of your proposition, would Congress have enacted it without this provision, okay that's the consequence.

That would mean that if we struck down nothing in this legislation but the -- what you call the corn husker kickback, okay, we find that to violate the constitutional proscription of venality, okay?"

[sport]

The only yhing that would surprise me about this bunch of criminals and their propganda arm, the media, is if they did something good and decent. they have demonestrated that there is no depth of depravity and degenercy they will not sink to.

[Eagle of Liberty]

Don’t forget STUPAK!

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

He also doesn’t mention how many of those democratically elected Representatives and Senators were kicked out by the voters for voting for that law. So many Congressmen lost their jobs that the House changed parties. I wouldn’t call that a “strong” majority!

[sport]

I would say that one or all three of the witches did.
