SCOTUS: No Live TV for Obamacare Arguments
Michelle Malkin ^ | 3/18/12 | Doug Powers

Posted on 03/18/2012 6:12:46 PM PDT by Nachum

Alternate headline: Ruth Bader Ginsburg not ready for her close-up:

The Supreme Court rejected requests from news organizations Friday for live, televised coverage of this month’s historic arguments on President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul, but agreed to release audio recordings of the proceedings on the same day. [...] The justices have never allowed cameras inside the courtroom and decided not to make an exception for the health care case, despite what the court called “extraordinary public interest.”

There goes my daytime viewing plans on March 26-28.

A little more on the time allotted for arguments:

page 107, Health Care draft of bill: “dhimmitude”

http://askmarion.wordpress.com/2011/05/03/dhimmitude-on-page-107-of-obamacare-bill-what-does-it-mean/

“One Of The Earliest Dated Qur’anic Manuscript (107 AH / 725 CE) At Egyptian National Library”

http://www.islamic-awareness.org/Quran/Text/Mss/enl2a.html

There used to be stories and articles about when the Gregorian calendar first used the Hijri calendar. There was a ‘year zero’ for the Hijri calendar—1401, IIRC. The section of the IRS code referenced in 1402(g) was significant in many senses to the 0bamacare bill. I used to be able to find that. I can’t anymore. But it tied in to the Muslim exemption that has since been generally dismissed as something that would be ‘unexpected.’

Where do we hear that word used again?

Good. No play-by-play spin from the government-run media!

This is truly a Case about the Role of the Federal Government, and with the built-in "Severability Clause", the WHOLE Law would be struck down if the Individual Mandate is found to be Un-Constitutional, IMHO.

However, if by some miracle it is ruled Un-Constitutional, then Republicans need to IMMEDIATELY de-fund ALL the beauracracy that has been installed to implement Obamacare, and make sure ALL the hires for it are discharged, period.

Next, with THIS in their pockets, they should pursue vigorously ON THE SAME GROUNDS, ALL handouts to Unions from Taxpayer funds, along with ALL phony other front groups such as Planned Parenthood, and all Czars, who are EQUALLY not provided for in The Constitution.

HOWEVER, with Kagan clearly having a conflict-of-interest, and having SPECIFICALLY been put on the Court to vote in favor of Obamacare, the chances of an Un-Constitutional Opinion and Order are very, very un-likely.

I hope the out-of-control Leftists then are OVERWHELMED by the turnout of VOTERS for THE USA and THE CONSTITUTION who will vote out of Office every Progressive/Liberal/Socialist/Democrat in November.

If THAT doesn't happen, then prepare for CWII, because that's the ONLY alternative left.

But 0bama would IGNORE SCOTUS’ overturning of Obamacare anyway. This is a Dictatorship, remember?

Oh, and the 1311 section on religious exemption......

“in the year 1311 AH (1894 AD) erected a large clock above the keblah gate of al Abbas shrine peace be upon him, by Hajj Amin al-Sultan, it is still standing now, and oversaw the laying of seid Ali keteb.”

https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150476391186328

Karbala, ‘the martyr’ Hussein shrine’s location. Twelvers. Jarrett, the Iranian. And the IRGC infiltrators in the WH/Congress.

0bamacare: It’s on Mecca time, baby, and wrapped in 12er shiite.

They do like to twist the shiv, don’t they. And make us kill ourselves, pollute our own blood, kill babies and newborns, infirm, disabled and elderly, BY OUR OWN HANDS AND WITH OUR OWN CONSENT, and otherwise TAX US FOR LIVING, while the Muslims will be exempt.

Now, who wants to tell me these people, their handlers, bill authors, staffers and lawmakers themselves aren’t Muslims? Anyone? Bueller?
