They must be thinking two things. One, is that the current court would rule against. Two, is that one of the conservatives will be leaving soon.

Hey Obama, we're not a communist country yet. You just can't have 'your way'. We have a constitution and separation of powers.

Soon you will not be president and btw, I need to thank you for one thing: You have cured the country of ever electing a socialist/communist again. Remember, it's November 6, 2012.

I suspect he told them after his second oath what they would be allowed to touch and do.

Why should the Supreme Court be outraged by this? The Obama administration is a party to a lawsuit, and responded to a request made by the opposing side. Nothing outrageous here.

Senator Schumer is pretty sure that the Supreme Court is not one of the equal but separate branches of government, so as such it’s possible that Chuck’s advised the White House that they have the power to tell the Supreme Court what to do:

The 0bama administration told the Supreme Court on Monday night it should stay away from a high-profile challenge to the 2010 health care law until after a lower court has had a chance to review the case.

. . . . !

White House tells Supreme Copurt to stay away from Obamacare.

That isn’t he scary part.

The scary part is they will do what they are told to do.

They were told to stay away from his Birth Certificate too, and they did it.

We don’t have three separate branches. The Supremes evade the problem and the Legislature runs along behind The Won like a little puppy.

This is outrageous. It should be the top news item if Japan’s tragic events were not in the news.

The President is trying to pressure the Supreme Court. Very disturbing misuse of power.

Sorry - not an attorney. I just assumed this was something for the courts to settle, without input from the White House.

Obama is not trying to "pressure the Supreme Court" any more than any litigant tries to "pressure" the court. The President is acting as a party to a lawsuit:

President Barack Obama's Justice Department has filed a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in opposition to a request from Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli to have the case come up for consideration before the nation's high court more quickly than it otherwise might. (Source)

This is clearly a stalling tactic (0 knows that the Supreme Court, as currently constituted, would strike down the law), but it's not any sort of misuse of power.

Response to The White House from the Supreme Court:

Stay away from us. We'll call you.

Nazi fascists in the White House? This just isn’t the same America it once was. Back in the day, fascist dictators would have been thrown out of the White House on their ass. Now they live there.
