resident Obama bluntly challenged the Supreme Court over a pending ruling on the validity of ObamaCare subsidies, complaining Monday that the court should never have taken up the case -- and warning that a ruling against subsidies would be a "twisted interpretation" of the law.
The president and his administration's legal team for months have fought the Affordable Care Act court challenge, which is over whether people who enrolled through the federal HealthCare.gov are entitled to subsidies.
But the president's comments on Monday, during a press conference on the sidelines of the G-7 summit in Germany, were perhaps his toughest to date. He strongly suggested the court would be running afoul of established legal guidance if it rules against the administration, and took the rare step of saying the court should have stayed out of this fight.

Now he’s above the Supreme Court....A true dictator!!
I had to look to see if this is satire. What must the world think.
I got the opposite impression. He’s not happy.
Obama just sent out a message to his fellow travelers...
Look for multiple articles and talking heads to push the idea of a E.O. after the court rules...
Which of the 20,000+ pages that discuss subsidies is twisted? Pre- or post-suit? Today’s change pages?
I do. Oh, yeah.
thanks to John Roberts the USSC is pwned by obama
Uh-oh, he be fixin’ to bring in the Black Panther bench watchers!
The Saul Alinsky prexivent bristles at any suspected incursion into his putative banana republic.
I hope SCOTUS lays the bricks to ‘em.
How about just being blunt.
This whining c*** s******, c**** dressing usurper dares to criticize our very form of government to various heads of state while on foreign soil. No, this is waaaay beyond unseemly by umpteen orders of magnitude.

I wonder what would happen if he said, "John Roberts has made his decision. Now let him enforce it."
Beginning to wonder whether the Supreme Court as an institution is flawed. Justices nominated by one branch of the State, confirmed by another, and thus beholden to both; yet, with life tenure, unaccountable to the citizens, should any justice prove to be a louse. With the State as final arbiter of all constitutional questions regarding Citizen vs State, is it any wonder, the inexorable accretion of State power at the expense of society since 1789?
This isn’t the first time the Executive Branch has been critical of the legislative or judicial branch since 2009.
If SCOTUS didn’t you DUmmie, the appellate review rulings that went against your OBotcare would have stood. ... It was soooooo much easier to blackmail a Supreme Court Justice to change his mind.
Supreme Court? We don’t need no stinkin’ Surpreme Court.
I believe from this day forward he will simple ignore all rulings that he disagrees with. The solution will be for all the rest of America to ignore him.
It won’t matter. The republicans will bail him out.
Captain Midnight needs to shut his pie hole.
