Levin: Obama cannot continue to implement ObamaCare (Obama defying court order)
TheRightScoop ^ | 2/1/2012 | The Right Scoop

Posted on 02/01/2011 9:18:24 AM PST by Signalman

Levin makes an interesting point that the Federal Judge today declined to issue an injunction because he didn’t need to. ObamaCare has been declared unconstitutional and the only thing Obama can do at this point is appeal it. And if chooses not to respect the court’s decision from today and continues to implement the law, Levin says the litigants should go right back in front of the Judge and file a contempt order: (Audio at Link)

Zero’s not just chief executive. He’s middle-eastern `old school’: He’s a “ruler”.

Remember when a reporter asked Pelosi if the 0bama health care bill was constituional. Her contemptuous reply was “Are you serious? Are you serious?”

What are they gonna do?

Arrest him?

Right. Good luck with that.

Imagine Eric holder writing up the charges.

It will NEVER happen.

The Left will continue to do whatever it wants to do, regardless of the Constitution, regardless of the Courts, regardless of the Congress, regardless of the People.

Count on it.

At the same time take dingy harry on charges of bribery, vote tampering and mis-appropriation of funds

"The Plaintiffs need to make their way back to court this morning and file an emergency request "

I realize that talk show hosts have to fill airtime, and comments like this really help to sell commercial spots, but as an exploration of civil law practice, it's all a bit ridiculous.

Any 1L student, and certainly Mark Levin, knows that FRCP Rule 62(a) provides for an automatic 14-day stay. If plaintiffs made their way back to court today, they'd be told to go home.

The government will file notice of appeal sometime later this week, and the 5th Circuit will SURELY grant a stay pending appeal. This isn't complicated. It's unlikely anything will halt implementation (anything from the Judiciary) until such a time that Scotus issues their opinion, my guess is 2012 at the earliest, and probably 2013 more likely.

“Obama wants the people to rise against him so he can declare martial law.”

Good and just have the Army disobey him just like in Egypt. DADT has pretty much alienated much of the rank and file military from the leadership.

Obamacare is legally dead at the moment. Will Obama obey or be an outlaw?

It's all up to this guy:

Oops, I mean this guy:

Actually... maybe I was right the first time

his thugocracy tried to inform the courts that states ‘had no right to challenge’ obamacare

Obamacare stays dead, the medical industry and the citizenry can just laugh at Obama's face. See you in court Dems.

Oh, that's right, there won't be any court case because government care doesn't legally exist.

Seems like one can get a judge to say almost anything. Bet they find one to say that they can coninue with implementation until appeal process is completed.

So now that it is dead, will healthcare insurance prices go down? Most likely not. Hopefully, they go down.

Obama is a dictator. He will continue to implement the law despite otherwise. Look at the oil drilling moratorium.

Go ahead Obama no one has to obey.

Good luck with that, too.

The BJ Klintoon impeachment circus had the undesirable side-effect of virtually immunizing presidents from such, at least for this generation of voters.

Anyone doubt that I pegged King Obama as a communists black Muslim wanna be dictator. He will just issue a executive order saying that the health bill will continue. Mindless dictator.

I recall the VA ruling on this as being dissed as a non issue by the WH.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GMB1bt58ck&feature=player_embedded

A republican appointed judge made it not real or effective in stopping ObamaCare. Now the WH response is the SAME.Valerie Jarrett said, ‘you win some you lose some big deal The SCOTUS will rule for ObamaCare....it is a republican judge’ blah blah blah spin....

Which is why we should be writing our congresscritters asking them what they plan to do about a run-away administration that does not obey the law. Will they draft articles of impeachment? Or will they go along with violating the ruling and the Constitution.
