Then they will be impeached if you do not want them in front of the others. No wonder we are in this mess-the justices are never held accountable for legislating from the bench. It is happening all over. So, impeach them. Obama is sending signals how he wants his court appointees to go-because this health care is a one track way to a socialist America (they are in a panic)

So if Obamacare goes down in defeat, it’s okay with you if -0- has the judges pulled in front of Congress for questioning and/or impeachment?

He’s doing more than sending signals, he’s threatening.

So if we don’t like a ruling they make, we impeach them? The left could also do that, you realize.

The SC has made rulings the right hates. The SC has made rulings the left hates. If either side, or both sides, begins ignoring SC rulings by finding ways to rationalize that they are legislating from the bench, we will begin going down a very dangerous road. obama showed his contempt for the SC yesterday by claiming they are unelected people thwarting his will and the will of Congress if they rule against him. Sounds to me like he’s setting the groundwork to ignore a ruling that goes against him. (he also showed his contempt of the SC by humiliating them in front of Congress and the people of the US in his SOTU speech) Newt shows his contempt for the SC by saying he will be the final word of what is Constitutional or not,,,not the SC. Or hauling them before Congress to explain their decisions,,,or arresting them if they don’t appear. This is dangerous stuff. Heck, why have a SC at all if the right or left begins ignoring their rulings for whatever reason they can rationalize? We would end up with just two branches of govt.
