Yeah, until the NSA reveals some juicy texts and e-mails all taken out of context.

Too late for Traitor Roberts to buy legacy salvation.

THE SUMMER OF 2014:
______________________
______________________

Today is the last watershed day for America, because it is the last chance for the US Supreme Court to exercise a Constitutional Check and Balance on the current rogue, tyrannical and oppressive Federal Administration.

Chief Justice John “Traitor” Roberts will probably again refuse to abide with the clear Constitutional Law, and again rewrite the US Constitution to his own liking, in similar manner to what Roberts did with the Constitutionality of the Obamacare Case when he un-Constutionally converted a legal fine into an illegal tax.

Today the US Supreme Court takes up the issue of whether or not an Administration can act without Congressional Approval on matters relating to personnel appointments.

The topic of bypassing the House on approving the spending of taxpayer’s dollars by the Administration will not be considered today, except tangentially, as the appointed personnel will be paid with taxpayer dollars, which would be a bypassing of the Constitutional Control of the Purse by the US House of Representatives.

We taxpayers view this as a clear cut case where we have “Taxation Without Representation” because our Representatives have not been part of the decision-making process.

Examples of a few Imperial matters of record include the following:
* Senator Reid’s Democrats recent voting to turn the US Congress into the US Parliament,
* Boehner’s refusal to appoint House Special Prosecutors for each of the Five Obama Administration Scandals,
* Obama’s four years of Imperial actions, and
* the recent history, ( Traitor Roberts’ Obamacare decision), of the US Supreme Court’s proven reluctance to provide their Constitutional duty of a Check and Balance on the other two Branches of the US Federal Government.

With the usual US Supreme Court private straw vote today that always follows the 30 minute Official Hearing before the Court, America’s future fate will be sealed, and later proclaimed between now and the Summer of 2014.

Either way that the NINE SUPREMES rule on this case, “The Summer of 2014” will prove to be the Summer that decided whether or not our Founding Fathers fought King George the Third of England in vain - - - .

I used to hold to the belief that Repub presidents would select conservative justices. We now see from history that isn’t true.

And for many years to come, I see no positive rulings forthcoming from the SCOTUS.

Just worthless.

When liberals pick judges they stay liberal 100% of the time, when conservatives pick.. our picks suddenly turn liberal 80% of the time.

It’s maddening.

My take on this issue and the supremes is, at its core, more about the court than anything else. What is the purpose of the Supreme Court in our system of government? The answer should be, to protect the Constitution. If not that, we are finished as a constitutional government. I can imagine that some, if not all of the Justices, realize that. Their authority and indeed their very future is in doubt and they must know that.

I think if it is the lives of his children they have over his cojones in that vise, he will go all the way. Maybe we need to go after his adoption for him. Would there be a way to fix this for him legally so that he no longer has ‘em in a vise?

Gosh, we thought they’d rule against Obamacare too.

I have no faith that this Court under Roberts will uphold the Constitution. The real issue isn’t even being addressed. The Constitution says the President can make a recess appointment when the position becomes vacant during the recess. It does not give the President the power to make a recess appointment to end run the Senate if the position does not become vacant during the recess. Both parties violate this. But as usual Obama pushes the violation to the extreme because the Constitution means nothing to him, or apparently to his party.

Don’t worry. Roberts will rule that the recess appointments are a tax and some folks will say it is a magnificent political strategy.

This one should be a slam dunk, but the justices sounded very favorable on Obamacare...we were mostly concerned about Kennedy, and he was clearly thinking our way in his questioning. We didn’t foresee our Roberts turning twisting his thoughts like a pretzel to rule for Obama.

We thought that about ObamaCare too.

C.J. Roberts is a reliable Obama vote, so O has his safe majority on ALL issues.

Eisenhower once said the biggest mistake he made as President was appointing Earl Warren to the Supreme Court. I suspect Roberts will be W’s biggest mistake.

Just like it sounded like they’d rule against an obviously unconstitutional Husseincare.

That can’t be. Don’t they know Christie closed a bridge lane? And misappropriated Sandy funds? Everything else is faux scandal.

How much more damage will the Supremes do to the remaining legitimacy of America’s enemies in FedGov?
