The court should not ask what the administration believes. It is of little consequence - it is what the court believes that is at issue. Repeal the law and teach the administration about the Constitutional separation of powers and if he makes one weaselly peep, hear one of the natural born suits and disqualify the usurper. It time the court stop the nonsense and defend this constitution.
Right. My comment was that politicians on our side should be demanding - repeat - demanding that Obama explain himself.
I think those justices just gave the admin. a shot across the bow. They are paying attention as they should.
The court has a case in front of them... They were asking an OB lawyer what the WH meant by his comment.... They have a right to ask that question as they are about to make a ruling in a case in front of them.
It would seem rather odd for them to be doing so while at the same time the highest law enforcement official in the country is telling them that courts do not have the power to over rule things. Pretty clear case that the judges had a right to ask.

What will be interesting is if the Whitehouse even responds....
