Has the SC ever NOT been a collection of political hacks and affirmative action types?

The Four Horsemen of the Constitution take supreme exception to such a foolish statement.

Roberts is the wild card. Ailto, Thomas and Scalia I am not concerned about but do I have any faith in Roberts? hell NO

Actually, the Bill that Cao voted for was not the final Bill. He voted against the Final (Senate) Bill.

Rush knows nothing on this one. There has never been a leak at SCOTUS.

Goodness. Thanks for just coming out and saying it, because I had no idea what Rush and a few others were trying to imply.

I still have no idea if this is true, though. I guess it’s fun speculation.

>> There has never been a leak at SCOTUS <<

I think you’re wrong here. I seem to recall hearing or reading that in 1954, somebody on the Warren court (or its staff) leaked details about the “Brown v. Board” decision to the POTUS and to the AG.

(I believe there was also at least one other “known” leak in relatively modern times, but the details escape me.)

I think it is preposterous to claim that Chief Justice Roberts is gay especially when our side does it.

Politico Warns Chief Justice Roberts

1) You got your mandate, saying that in order to not be criminalized for existing, you have to buy something. Nowhere, even in the 14th Amendment consitution of limited privileges, does it say or mean that you have to pay simply to not be a criminal. There is no possible way this fits any interpretation of the Constitution.

2) You got your severability, which was specifically ruminated over in the Senate, and then discarded. Which means there is no way to interpret the lack of severability a accidental, but rather a deliberate intention of Congress.

Therefore, My Fellow Americans, and In Conclusion, you can't give a pass to the mandate, and once that's gone, you have to throw out the entire bill along with it.

That's the law.

Anything other than that, is politics - and not nice politics, either.

I agree, he’s just pontificating. None of these theories were around until people saw Roberts vote on Arizona. As I recall a few FReepers were concerned over Roberts questions during oral arguments when the Arizona law challenge was before the court because he didn’t sound supportive.

I don’t think this is a big conspiracy or anything.

I have, from the beginning when Politico came first on the scene always said that anything from that rag has to be taken with a grain of salt. I dismiss anything that comes from them as nothing but trash. Look what they did to Herman Cain.

IMHO, if the HC decision comes down on June 28th and goes against the Constitution, it will have been done by the jihadis.

1389 – Battle of Kosovo takes place between Serbian and Ottoman army.

1519 – Charles V is elected Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/June_28

1914 - Archduke Francis Ferdinand and the Mrs. Archduke were assassinated by Serb nationalist in (what is now known as) Sarajevo, Bosnia. WW I begins.

1919 - The Treaty of Versailles was signed ending World War I exactly five years after it began. The treaty also established the League of Nations.

1942 - German troops launched an offensive to seize Soviet oil fields in the Caucasus and the city of Stalingrad.

1949 - The last U.S. combat troops were called home from Korea, leaving only 500 advisers.

1950 - North Korean forces captured Seoul, South Korea.

1954 - French troops began to pull out of Vietnam’s Tonkin Province.

1960 - In Cuba, Fidel Castro confiscated American-owned oil refineries without compensation.

1964 - Malcolm X founded the Organization for Afro American Unity to seek independence for blacks in the Western Hemisphere.

The Night of the Long Knives started on June 29th...as in the day following.

I wouldn’t have thought so, given your excellent history of thoughtful and very helpful posting. So my apology for what probably looked like personal criticism. None intended.

In any event, given the potentially misleading headline from Rush’s website, perhaps one of the mods thought it was a “hard news” item as opposed to an opinion piece.

There has never been a leak at SCOTUS.

With Kagan and the Wide Latino on the Court? I'm quite sure one (or both) of these two 'leaked' bad news to 0bama in April.

Which prompted this completely inappropriate and disrespectful intrusion on the separation of powers between the Executive and Judicial Branches of our Government ....

Obama Warns ‘Unelected’ Supremes: Overturning My Law Would be ‘Judicial Activism’

From the article .....

The Drudge Report has openly speculated that President Obama knows something about the eventual outcome of the case, possibly through a leak from the high court itself.

The SCOTUS took such care to prevent a leak in Brown that they broke with tradition by not releasing a printed copy of the ruling to reporters in attendance.

Me too. Thursday can't come soon enough. I am very optimistic though. Summoning my inner Gene Kranz ...

With all due respect sir, I believe this is going to be our finest hour.

The House passed the bill on November 7th 2009. Cao was a congressman from Louisiana Source

He was obviously send packing in 2010 because of it.

The Senate passed the bill on December 2424 2009 Source
