I know there are a multitude of issues, but this is one that should be at the top of our lists. The crass disregard for any semblance of the law is the hallmark of this administration and both parties. We really need to clean house if we want America to survive.

Even the flippy floppy RINO Mitt Romney has yet to waffle on his promise to enact a 50 state waiver upon inauguration if he is inaugurated, this Rat manipulative power play is hated so. Let Kagan be intransigent, it will only increase the wrath to come upon the Rat machine.

Someone recently posted the text of a law that says that a jurist MUST recuse themselves from any case where they may have a conflict of interest.

So, now a jurist in the highest court in the land can just break the LAW with impunity? Excuse me, but the irony in that is almost too stark to describe.

If Kagan doesn’t recuse herself from the Obamacare case, it will effectively nullify the legitimacy of the Supreme Court.

This is just one of the many affronts to our democracy that has surfaced during the Obumo regime. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if Kagan made money via insider trading over Obumocare. But this administration is all about in-your-face activism and blatant cronyism whether by appointment or union kickbacks or targeted payoffs aka Solyndra.
Retch if you must but get to the polls even if you have to be wheeled.

Obamacare is one of the central reasons Kagan was appointed and confirmed. She is “trustworthy”.

She will not recuse herself, since she has privately agreed to vote precisely the way she is instructed to vote by Obama and the Democrats on every case that comes before her so long as she sits on that bench. Sotomayor has made a similar pledge, I’m sure.

Notice that the only objections come from Republicans.

There is no reason for Democrats to be upset. It would literally make no sense to a Democrat for Kagan to recuse herself.

To Democrats, the purpose of Presidential appointment and Senate confirmation of a judge with life tenure is to overthrow our government of limited powers. That is exactly why Elena Kagan was nominated, and that is exactly why she was confirmed.

For her to recuse herself, to defect from the battle for communism on the cusp of its greatest triumph in all of history, would make as much sense as her dressing for court in purple underwear and announcing her opinions in Norwegian.

We cannot begin to win until we understand the terms of the battle.

ObamaCare is the ruling class sinecure...perpetual bureaucratic splendor and bliss form behind a computer screen in DC.

The only way that sucker is going away..is when We the People go rip it out by the roots...

Justices are to serve in good behaviour.

How is pretending to be an impartial judge over an issue that she is on record vociferously supporting considered good behaviour?

Impeach her!

The problems in DC will never be solved at the ballot box.

It's called hitting the reset button.

The military steps in and fires all three branches of government.

Six months later new elections, all amendments repealed except for the bill of rights.

The capital moves every other year, no more DC calling the shots.

Only taxpayers and veterans can vote.

Quotas on lawyers, who are not allowed to hold elective office.

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other. Oaths in this country are as yet universally considered as sacred obligations. That which you have taken, and so solemnly repeated on that venerable ground, is an ample pledge of your sincerity and devotion to your country and its government.

John Adams, 1798
