If I were sitting on the U.S. Supreme Court when this case came up, I would have refused to hear it at all. There's no reason for a Federal judge to waste a moment of his time reading a single legal brief in a legal challenge that is brought against a Federal statute when the Speaker of the House of Representatives openly acknowledges that she didn't even read the damn thing before voting on it.

Justice Roberts was right when he said that it's not the Court's job to protect Americans from the consequences of their political choices. The Supreme Court isn't the problem here. The real problem is that we've grown complacent with a government where a dingbat like Nancy Pelosi can rise to a prominent position of power.

Hogwash, I am trying to be polite here. SC Justices’ job is to uphold the Constitutionality of any law passed by the legislatives. If it is not constitutional, it shouldn’t be made a law.

IF YOUR SINGLE VOTE uphold an unconstitutional ‘law’ to enslave the whole nation under gubbmint boots, do we the people not deserve a better explanation? Why did you change your reasoning?

In fact, I think CJ Roberts SHOULD explain himself soon. He owed us.

We send Republicans to the House of Representatives and then behave like Democrats.

We send Republicans to the United States Senate and then behave like Democrats.

We send Republicans to the White House and they behave like Democrats.

Why are we surprised when those we send to the Supreme Court behave like Democrats?

Good post.

It HAD to be heard by SCOTUS, otherwise the the lower court rulings would have stood.

Well said, as usual :)
