I have always believed that liberals RATS
are so determined to get their way that they are willing to risk civil war to do so. Well, they did it once before didn't they?

The court commands no armies, it has no money; it depends for its power on its credibility. The only reason people obey it is because it has that credibility.”
Here we go. I knew this would happen. He is essentially saying that the court will be unable to enforce a ruling (which is true) that strikes down any part of obamacare, and that any such ruling should be ignored. President Andrew Jackson pretty much did the same thing. The SC made a ruling he didn’t like, so he told them to shove it and to try to enforce their ruling. An entire branch of our govt. is becoming virtually useless. This country is going down the toilet faster and faster every day. No matter what the SC decides, neither side will accept the ruling if it is against them.

Is it wrong to enjoy the smell of fear emanating from the democRATs/socialists/communists?

By the way, Blumie wasn't even around to vote on this turd law, was he? He was still skunking the people of Connecticut. Blummie is *so* much like Eliot Spitzer in *so* many ways that I've often wondered if he might even be Client #10.

Hmmm. Maybe we should dismantle the Constitutionally appointed USSC and make these RAT senators the new court. Because they are experts and all. We don’t even need a court. Just RAT lawmakers.

Hitler made a similar comment when he asked (rhetorically) how many divisions the Pope commands.I think that was Stalin but what's the difference? The point's been well made.

Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) said the law has been thoroughly vetted.This is a demonstrable lie, of course, since the Dems had no idea what was in the bill in the first place. Nice of the Dems to make veiled threats to the SC justices, though.

This is a blatant attempt to intimidate The Court by 3 sitting Senators by referencing the Courts reliance on the Senate for funding.
Yup. And they have 3 more months to apply more and more pressure on the SC and to threaten them.

“I think that was Stalin but what’s the difference? The point’s been well made.”
Yea, not much difference, thanks. It’s scary to hear that from a SENATOR.

>He might want to check that. A whole lot of us have pledged to defend the Constitution against ALL enemies, foreign and domestic...
That does assume that the Supreme Court’s actions are themselves Constitutional. Things like Kelo, Wickard, and Roe v. Wade indicate that it is not; things like the very recent 9-0 smackdown of the EPA’s denyal of due-process do give me some hope for the Court though.

They only have to get to Kennedy and he wont be that hard to coerce behind the scenes. Im not at all convinced the court will overturn,
Yup. I wouldn’t put it past them to threaten his family. I’m pretty much convinced the court will rule in obama’s favor. I think it will be passed by more than 5-4. More like 6-3, maybe even 7-2. Threats can change a lot of the justices minds.

The court commands no armies, it has no money; it depends for its power on its credibility. And how many divisions has the Pope? But when 0bamacare knocked down the conscience clause exception to abortion related medical care, the Church found that it had allies all across the religious spectrum.
Reiterating my tagline, the Mandate of Heaven resides in the hearts of men.

Playing politics and attacking the courts credibility seems dangerous. If I was a justice on the fence this may be what pushes me the other way
You, maybe,,,but not Ginsberg, etc. They are probably applauding Kerry’s comments. Even thought the govts. arguments were ripped to she shreds, they will still vote in favor of obama.

"The court commands no armies.....it depends for its power on its credibility."
As we all know, the Dems command legions of gimme entitlement takers for their power and armies of effeminate, idiotic intellectuals for their credibility. Their ranks also include an ever-shrinking corps of union dolts plus 9 or 10 overweight New Black Panthers who are the Dems Special Forces.
Bring 'em on.....
P.S.....you can make book that the Court's decision will reflect payback time for Obama's State of the Union insult.

It’s just talk, for now. We’ll see if it gets ignored if overturned. If so, that anger in the country is gonna boil over.

The court has no armies. Sounds like a threat from the left.
