A federal appeals court is striking back after President Obama cautioned the Supreme Court against overturning the health care overhaul and warned that such an act would be "unprecedented."
A three-judge panel for the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday ordered the Justice Department to explain by Thursday whether the administration believes judges have the power to strike down a federal law.

Affirmative Action President was an Affirmative Action Constitutional Scholar
I think this deserves “BREAKING NEWS.”
I bet they will ignore it like they have ignored Issa’s subpoenas and other requests for documents relating to Fast and Furious.
Betcha.
He didn’t teach anything, he was a guest lecturer from what I hear.
Well, just because he taught it doesn’t necessarily mean he understood it.
“He is the most dangerous man who has ever been allowed in the door of the White House.We need to watch him like a hawk and take away any opportunity or excuse for him to stay.Watch your ass folks. He wants to appoint himself president for life.”
You sure? I read right here that Romney’s far worse.
Obama darn near caused race riots just recently and these judges fear he will turn his Communist Comrades on them.
Since this is supposed to be a Constitutional Scholar, I have even more reason to worry. Has the other two Constitutional selected departments of our government decided to go rouge? Will the Congress and the Courts let this go? Scary - really!
Since the Congress has been taken over by the political parties and the PACS, I guess they figure it's a fight of two against one.
But the citizens will have a really hard time seeing the Supreme Court get even more politicized than it already is. Taking on the court has never been a winning strategy before-but these are unusual times.
Have heard chocolate is a good substitute...;~)
tempête de merde
C’est très drole!
Le Président de Merde, peut-être?
it is worth noting the 5th includes TEXAS.
Also the 5th was broken up with part forming the 11th.
I have felt that this administration is spending their time consolidating power. They have no intention of relinquishing what they have won.
When I read about the Executive Oder giving feds the power to declare martial law during times of peace, I figured that was probably that last little piece - except that we are not disarmed.
If they win the election, they’ll continue to work on the little details, which will end up making the take over easier. If they don’t win, then they’ll start a civil war.
The phrase that keeps running through my head - he’ll take over “only if we let him”.
Well, if that is the case, you will be happy to know that the 2nd Amendment is sill in force. We will need it.
I will say that it is really a shame that the Constitution is not taught in schools these days. Maybe the problem has been pinpointed!
Also diabetic, but I sneak it when I get the chance. Can't eat popcorn, not supposed to eat chocolate. They might as well take me out and shoot me :-)
The Ayer’s clan got him the job as “lecturer”. I’ve seen a few of his “finals” questions—that he wrote. My, God. The man is a true bird brain.
His is not a matter of understand the Constitution but his education has been how to undermine it.
As long as they don't go mascara I think we'll be OK.
