Is Obama Threatening The Supreme Court Justices?

But you don't have a quotation from Reagan complaining about judicial activism by the Supreme Court in a pending case. Right? You're stringing shit together to make it sound like you do, but really you dont.
And Roe v Wade was one case, not "too many cases." So you're wrong there as well.

Pending or past, what the hell does it matter?

The theory that this is some sort of "threat" absolute nonsense.

What exactly is he "threatening" them with? He can't remove them from the bench. So what's your point?

You actually dont see the difference? Really?
Are you stupid?
 
So, all those examples of Conservative presidents criticizing judicial over-reach by the Supreme Court and referring to "Judicial Activism"...

Are somehow different than Obama criticizing judicial over-reach by the Supreme Court and referring to "Judicial Activism"?

Interesting.

Could you cite one example? Just one.

Do I really need to quote back the last 3 pages of this thread to you?

No, I asked for one actual cite where either Bush or Reagan was criticising the Court for over-reach in a pending case. You know, like Obama just did.
So far you've produced nothing but smelly tushy-air.
 
Jefferson had one member of the Supreme Court impeached, and other presidents had a few other federal judges impeached.

Alcee Hastings was the only judge impeached in the 20th century. Now he's a Democratic Rep for Florida.
And?
 
The 'severability clause' was in there, Reid got it out. So now it's all or nothing.
And that is exactly what the administration wanted. The administration is quite aware that the court can sever if they choose, and if they do, the Democrats don't want to make it easy for the court to do so.

However most of the law is not dependent on the mandate so it could be easily severed.
 
FDR threatened the Court...Obama is an understudy of FDR...and Compares HIS deal to the NEW DEAL...and threatening to PACK the Courts?

How soon we forget?

So President Obama is a student of one of the greatest Presidents we've ever had. That is a good thing.

Well, at least the vast majority of Americans, historians and the rest of the world think of FDR as one of the greatest Presidents.

Let's see who thinks FDR was a terrible President...there's YOU..and who else...hmm, let me think...oh yeah..that guy Adolf Hitler and his Nazi assholes...they HATED FDR...just like you...I guess you have more than a little in common.
It's a good thing that the policies of a known Socialist is about to bring this nation down, and shove it over a cliff toward the goal of making it like everyone else in the world of despots and dictators that loathe the individual human being and thier liberty?

*Really*?

FDR was a Despot.

I'm sure 'ole Adolf would whole-heartedly agree.

The rest of the world would just think your a complete asshole and an idiot.

Funny how the U.S. transformed from an inconsequential economic disaster to the world's most advanced nation in the history of humanity under FDR. How the American people rose from poverty to wealth.

But I guess you'd prefer if the vast majority of Americans had lived in abject poverty, serving the priviledged few.

You are too disgusting an individual to waste my time continuing this discussion.

Adolf? Really? "I'm a complete asshole" Really?

Translation: "I don't have anything else to offer up for you T for attacking intellectually MY President and my heroes in history...so I deem you as an asshole and Hitler..."

Nice job.

Obama warns justices against 'activism' on health law

President Obama said today he is confident the Supreme Court will uphold his health care law -- and basically warned the justices against striking down the law by practicing what he called "judicial activism."

"I'd just remind conservative commentators that for years what we've heard is the biggest problem on the bench was judicial activism, or a lack of judicial restraint," Obama said during a joint news conference with the leaders of Canada and Mexico.

Obama defined activism by saying "an unelected group of people would somehow overturn a duly constituted passed law -- well, here's a good example. And I'm pretty confident that this -- this court will recognize that and not take that step."

Obama taking his politics to the SCOTUS?

The case is over...they voted...they know the outcome...Is Obama trying to influence thier decision?

Video in the story...

Deliberately dishonest libs, such as President Obama, love to pretend that a judicial rejection of the lefts' endlessly illicit attempts to undermine the Constitution somehow constitute "activism."

Of course, the truth is that judges doing their jobs WITHIN the confines of the Constitution has NEVER been what was (honestly) meant by the term "judicial activism."

President Obama is a massive fail.
 
yep, he gave them a talkin' too that only makes him look dumber than the last time he said something similar. A constitutional professor my ass.
Too bad he doesn't know anything about the constitution, if he does he sure doesn't believe in it, either way he shouldn't be potus then.
 
was it as threatening as this? lol:
Gingrich: Send U.S. Marshals to compel ‘radical’ judges to explain rulings - Election 2012 - The Washington Post
During an appearance on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” Gingrich (R) suggested the president could send federal law enforcement authorities to arrest judges who make controversial rulings in order to compel them to justify their decisions before congressional hearings.

Now Gingrich is offered UP as a deflection point.

*Fail*
 
Is Obama Threatening The Supreme Court Justices?

No.

He’s simply reminding conservatives that when in the past the Court has struck down laws the right approves of – such as laws limiting individual liberty and expanding the power of the state – republicans have whined that those rulings manifested ‘judicial activism’ where judges are ‘legislating from the bench.’ In such cases conservatives further complain that the court has failed to exercise judicial restraint and exhibits disrespect for the will of the people as expressed through their elected representatives.

In order for conservatives to be consistent and avoid hypocrisy, therefore, they’d be required to denounce the striking down of the ACA as well.
That is as lame as obama is.

Actually? i think he does, and HOW to thwart it...he learned from the masters as FDR.

Newt Gingrich isn't the POTUS.
Next.

Precisely as LWC was trying to serve up Reagan and both Bushes...NONE of which had a Constitutional crises on their hands as Obama has offered up to the people of this Republic.
