Obummer? Very troubling!
I suspect that SCOTUS rulings will be more consise, clear, and BROADER for a while. Expect broad language in the McDonald case. I think the Chief Justice may just see how important it is to overturn ALL gun bans in this nation after the baffoon in the White House has clearly demonstrated his lack of decorum, legal boundaries, or ethics.
THIS is why we have the 2nd Amendment and WHY the Founding Fathers put in “SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED.”
Please rule broadly and strongly SCOTUS. You see what we are concerned with now. Don’t pansy out like in the past. PLEEEEEAAAASE.
He (or they) should have stood up and walked out. Wouldn't THAT have been dramatic?!
I think they were pretty shocked. They should have gotten up and walked out. All of them, including both those who were in the majority of the decision, and those who where not, including the Resident's own appointment.
Not as troubling as watching *you* swear in this Marxist usurper.
It's safe to say this was the last State of the Union many of these Democrats will ever attend.
If this marxist, along with his many fellow travelers, manage to take over 1/6th of our economy (health care), install "cap and tax", and enable "illegal alien amnesty", this nation will be just one more on the ash heap of history. There will be no turning back, because those who benefit from such policies will never let go.
As a man living his twilight years, I have nothing to lose anymore. I've done the street demonstrations and they worked sometimes, but things are quickly growing past those benign efforts. It's time for more assertive action. I've posted many replies that those who march on DC (TEA Parties and such) should just sit down and refuse to leave. It worked for the hippie scumbags to cause us to lose the Viet Nam war. Why wouldn't it work for our cause? The movement needs to be more assertive.
I've also posted many articles about State Nullification. Got few replies and was pooh-poohed, but NOW everyone is talking about it. Many States are passing resolutions and laws to re-assert their 9th & 10th Amendment rights. I still believe that to be the best way back to our Constitutional heritage...before the People initiate RWII.
As I've said many times on this forum, "we all die". What will you die for? Waste away from old age in some hospital hooked up to a machine, or sitting in some "retirement home" wondering who will change your soiled pants? Or will you make something of what is left of your time on Earth?
Do you have the b*lls to try to restore the promise of America for your loved ones, friends, and compatriots? Will you take a bullet, no matter where it hits? I have given an Oath to do so. I would probably be the biggest wuss and scream and cry out in pain, but I still would not renounce that Oath. Well, unless I was tortured... Then it would be untrue anyway.
All the above said, I bet most National Guard, and if Obambi decides to ignore Posse Commitatus, the Marines and Army will not fire on their own brethern in this day and age.
Mark my words on this post!: If DC keeps pushing and gets its way, a real fight is coming. It will probably start with some small remote group who will be destroyed for their efforts. When that happens, providing they are not some stupid cult or outlaws, all hell will break lose. Personally, I believe Texas will be the flash point.

We are on the cusp. We either accept our finality towards socialism or we fight it. We can fight through the political machine or if that is for naught that we fight with our our sacred honor; our livilihoods (take care of your family resoureces), and our lives.
Things are coming to the boiling point. Either boil in the hopeless socialist agenda or hop out of the pot and fight, fight, fight. What is your turning point? Think carefully. It is about going along to get along or supporting a societal compact that has given you so much?
Best to all in these trying times.
Without accountability it's useless. We are responsible for holding our freedom in check.
Why are they surprised? They wanted a dictator and this is what dictators do!
Obama is a coward. Someone who need his buddies around to act tough and smart off.
It was an attempt at public intimidation...
Silly Chief Justice didn’t you know that Obama (supposedly) wrote for the Havard Law Review... When you do something that can match his omnipotence then you can speak so until otherwise please shut up and color...
Obama is a street thug who conned his way through Columbia and Harvard. Just a street thug with a dubious pedigree.
I don’t like Obama’s juvenile comments, nor do I think appropriate what occurred with the legislature. However, it is not the first time friction appeared in the three branches. Off the top of my head I’m thinking of FDR threatening to pack and make SCOTUS a rubber stamp after the court struck almost all of his communist policies. Another conflict occurred when Andrew Jackson’s actions after Cherokee Nation vs. Georgia and Worcester v. Georgia. And finally, Chief Justice John Marshall asserting SCOTUS power made for interesting consequences.
But I could be wrong
The conservative members of SCOTUS should be made to wear blue arm bands. As should non-union auto maker executives, bank executives, medical insurance company executives, and all WalMart employees.
I wonder when the window smashings of big banks and big pharma and big insurance properties will occur? Can somebody check the SEIU calendar for the date?
After the Wellstone event,, decorum in the democrat party is dead.
Ream ‘em, Judge Roberts.
Seriously, would he expect anything less from the spoiled brat man child, Marxist, narcissist Kenyan? That ruling screwed up Barry’s campaign plans for 2012 and Wookie is loving living like a Queen and so is he. They are nothing but squatters and I can’t wait to see them leave.
We should expect nothing less from the ZERO loser, manipulator, intimidator, dictator wannabe. He is a classic abuser imo.
