The administration’s solicitor general, Donald Verrilli, pleaded with the justices to recognize the “urgent problem” of climate change, because the “threat to future generations gets worse” with each passing year.

This is an argument to make before the Legislature. The fact that the Administration is asking the nine Justices of the Supreme Court to make this kind of a scientific decision shows how far we are down the rabbit hole.

I’d like to be optimistic. But when it comes to the SCOTUS actually getting it right it’s hard to be optimistic. I’ll continue to pray for a smidgen of sanity.

How much will King Barack’s thumb be on the scales of justice to get what he wants without appearing too obvious, I wonder.

Never again will I underestimate the supreme courts ability to come up with the wrong decision on any Constitutional matter.

Praying for sanity and dare I say “adherence to our Constitution”?

"This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow,and our planet began to heal.

Welcome King Barack "Canute" Obama the Great.....

...Obama issues an Executive Order to the Sun...

....to increase it's magnetic field....

and make a good crop of sunspots before elections in 2016....

(PhysOrg.com) -- Sunspot formation is triggered by a magnetic field, which scientists say is steadily declining. They predict that by 2016 there may be no remaining sunspots, and the sun may stay spotless for several decades.

The last time the sunspots disappeared altogether was in the 17th and 18th century, and coincided with a lengthy cool period on the planet known as the Little Ice Age....and lasted 400 years.

Good luck surviving with no electricity and GE modified seeds.

“Either way, it was clear that this court would not be of service to the ‘king.’ “( From the article.)

Uh, Dana, I have news for you: SCOTUS is not a reliable barometer for protecting Constitutional freedoms.

And besides, the Clown and his jester Eric the Red have already demonstrated they will IGNORE the law.

I thought SCTOUS already ruled on this. How is this case different from Massachusetts v. EPA, 549 U.S. 497 (2007)?

"but..but..it's for the all the little chil'ren" *bowing/scraping/clinging/crying* don't cha' know.
we all know the truth of the matter, the unadulterated grasping of power/$$$$.
It seems even the pResident 0'Muslim's Marxists minions on the USSC can't
swallow the spiel/arguments of Michael Mann's climate claptrap..but you never
know, maybe NYT/WaPo/0'Muslim can "coerce" spineless John Roberts to their side.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

Obama IS King.

Laws are supposed to made by the Congress, which is
just too busy with its child brothels, Ambien,
alcohol, and TREASON.

The Supreme Court has screwed us before. Remember how the openning arguements went well against obamacare. Roberts stabbed the American people in the back on that one — what is different now? I’m sure that NSA data they collected is still good for blackmailing him.

IMO, NONE of those black robed pseudo intellectuals belong in that magnificent building which was built to house the final arbitrators of justice in the country.

The only thing supreme about the occupants of this Supreme Court are their massive ego’s and sense of grandiosity.

Gee, didn’t the press report that the Obamacare hearings went badly for the administration too?

Don’t worry, the libs will support their man and Justice Roberts will find a miracle theory to allow the EPA to continue to simply line-out text of the law and replace it with text they prefer.

Then certain elements will tell us how Brilliant Roberts was by laying a trap that the EPA will fall into.

From the Article: 'The solicitor general assured him that “human beings are actually net neutral on carbon emissions,” so “it doesn’t matter how many family members you have.”'

What BS. Humans emit carbon dioxide and are not net neutral. So the solicitor is lying. The administration is speaking out both sides of it's mouth as usual.
