Think this argument is far-fetched? The author of this theory is none other than Justice Elena Kagan. In 1992, she lamented the Supreme Court decision in Rust v. Sullivan, which upheld that the government could exclude from Title X funding the subsidizing of abortions, abortion counseling, and abortion referrals. If her argument is accepted, not only will Rust v. Sullivan be overturned, but the government will actually be required to fund abortions along with other aspects of reproductive health.

Kagan, Obama, et al equate "freedom of speech" with government-funded healthcare, contraception and abortion! Tortured juxtaposition and totally fails the "reasonable man test".

And Kagan would recuse herself from the case, having authored the theory and all..../s

I'm to the point where I wish we could just get the November election over with. If Obama wins, we can move on to the long overdue CWII or if Mitt wins, we can move on to the long overdue CWII.........

More importantly (because of the many ramifications) is that Obama is serving up a hanging slider on purpose to Elena Kagan so she can crush it out of the park and "establish a principle" </ liberalspeak > as you describe.

He's going to do this with issue after issue, which means in effect that the Administration now has two Executive Department employees sitting on the High Court, each holding Obama's power of attorney as agens in rebus, as the Romans called such servants -- which is exactly why neither one of them should have been confirmed. Partisan agitators and political agents and spies have no business on the Court.
