>>> Wouldn’t it be nice if the Justices were looking for a little “payback”.
Why do you think Obama attacked them in the first place???
He knew darn well his HCR bill was unconstitutional.
His verbal attacks give him (at least in his mind) leverage to say that the upcoming ruling is politically motivated, and thus invalid. He may use such a ruling against his bill to somehow punish the court for it’s political stance, and push for some type of retribution in the form of justice removal, or constitutional amendment to override.
At the very least, maybe he thought that by attacking the court, they might be less likely to rule against him, simply to avoid the charge of a politically motivated ruling. Either way, there is no doubt that it is all tied into his agenda to overthrow the court as well.

There is nothing in the Constitution that says the court must be nine Justices. FDR tried to increase the number with his cornies, but failed.
How much more damage can those idiots in congress do to our nation before the November elections!
How much more damage will that clown in the White House do before he is thrown out on his ear!
