it seems as though things are finally coming to a head..

BO really stepped in it this time. His childishness got the better of him. People are really beginning to question his intelligence and I have noticed more on FOX that everyone is truly beginning just to flat out say he lies about everything.

Sounds to me like he never went to class. Affirmative action dude got passed anyway. He clearly knows little about the Constitution and the USA. He’s as ignorant as they come.

One should assume the Federal Judges know full well where they stand with regard to the Constitution and do not take lightly any other Branch trying to usurp, regardless of their political persuasion.

They probably do with the exception of Kagen and the wise Latina.

Wow, everyone ought to listen to this audio file. The three judges aren’t particularly sympathetic to the plaintiffs but the one judge goes after Holder’s lawyer. Starts at 17:00 in. Judge starts in at just before 18 minutes. The DOJ lawyer is obviously stunned!

Events like this helps me restore faith that maybe this country isn’t on its deathbed. Kudo’s to the judge for challenging the arrogant and narcisist Obama.

Your observation is dead on! Center mass.

By the way, did you hear any of the oral arguments where the “wise latino” drop the WISE part in her street level questions and points of view? I always thought the Supreme Court Judges were at least intellectual and honest.

No, I didn’t hear her, but did hear Mark Levin say she was not impressive AT ALL. Republicans were stupid to let those two appointments get through so easily.

There were a lot of dead people and people who never existed who pushed him over the top.

To a large degree, “our” GOP Congress’ stance of Go along to get along, is what brought us to this situation we have today.

Not exactly a SCOTUS ping but close enough.

SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES

Some are predicting at least five justices may strike down Obama’s unconstitutional law. Does this mean the other four are political activists willing to circumvent our Constitution?

If so, what does this infer regarding the integrity of the Supreme Court? Wouldn’t this mean the Supreme Court has been compromised by political activism? Where maybe five are willing to adhere to the Constitution, and the other four are willing to proscribe the US Constitution as a condemned writ.

I think we have a right to expect the USSC to be politically blind. Yet, each POTUS election we hear many arguments how one will appoint conservative justices, and the other liberal justices. Justices should be neither conservative nor liberal. Justices should be politically blindfolded.

My interpretation of the USSC is that this entity is by law required to form it’s decisions based on the US Constitution. Which begs the question, what has led to this misalignment of the stars? How has political activism infiltrated the sanctity of the USSC? Where it is now predicted at least four members may vote the Obama(could really)Care(less) as Constitutional?

Nancy who routinely Peesonselfsi states Obama(could really)Care(less) is Constitutional since it follows the pursuit of happiness concept set forth in our US Constitution. How on earth could any reasonable Justice argue with her interpretation of our US Constitution? /s
Meanwhile, Obama declares the Supreme Court Justices as invalid since they are unelected officials.

Beam me up Scottie! Please hurry!

Don’t be too shocked if the DOJ challenges the Judge’s authority to.........


If he’s re-elected, this judge might simply disappear or have an accident.
