Discussion about
President Barack Obama’s health-care reform law’s provision requiring individuals obtain coverage “exceeds Congress’s commerce power” and is unconstitutional, a U.S. appeals court ruled, affirming a federal judge’s January decision to invalidate that portion of the act in a lawsuit brought by 26 states. The Atlanta-based appellate court today upheld portions of U.S. District Judge C. Roger Vinson’s ruling that Congress exceeded its power in requiring that almost every American obtain insurance starting in 2014. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-08-12/health-care-mandate-ruled-unconstitutional.html

report abuse As far as Brooklyn, it's still on my list but I have to resolve some other things first. Jim, not that I'm not flattered by your concern and devotion to the particulars of my life, but i have to put it out there that mrs. Hones cannot possibly be comfortable with it. Maybe less time following me around the Internet? Btw, Project Isolation is underway. Let me know when you start to notice something. Bye bye Jim.

Back to move important things. Jim, are you concerned that posts made by caonima/Brooks2 were deleted after you agreed with them? When did you and Brooks2/caonima get onto the same team?

CBS News) In the escalating battle between the administration and the judiciary, a federal appeals court apparently is calling the president's bluff -- ordering the Justice Department to answer by Thursday whether the Obama Administration believes that the courts have the right to strike down a federal law, according to a lawyer who was in the courtroom.

The order, by a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit, appears to be in direct response to the president's comments yesterday about the Supreme Court's review of the health care law. Mr. Obama all but threw down the gauntlet with the justices, saying he was "confident" the Court would not "take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress."

Obama vs. Marbury v. Madison
The President needs a remedial course in judicial review.

hilarious comments:

"Forget about the birth certificate, I want to see his diploma! There can't be any chance he's a Constitutional Law professor."

"This proves it; The University of Chicago owes anyone who studied constitutional law under him an apology and a refund."

What a shock. A US President complaining about judicial activism. Every President does it. This is from Reagan:

"Reagan claimed during a presidential debate in Cleveland that he opposed the Equal Rights Amendment, despite being %u201Cfor equal rights,%u201D because %u201Cthe amendment will take this problem out of the hands of elected legislators and put it in the hands of unelected judges.%u201D

Reagan insisted that %u201C[w]e%u2019ve had too many examples in recent years of courts and judges legislating. They%u2019re not interpreting what the law says and whether someone was violated or not. In too many instances they have been actually legislating by legal decree what they think the law should be.%u201D"

And this is from the 1996 Republican Party platform:

"The federal judiciary, including the U.S. Supreme Court, has overstepped its authority under the Constitution. It has usurped the right of citizen legislators and popularly elected executives to make law by declaring duly enacted laws to be %u201Cunconstitutional%u201D through the misapplication of the principle of judicial review."

So this is just yet another example of the conservative media Mafia blowing things out of proportion.

The Judicial Procedures Reform Bill of 1937[1] (frequently called the "court-packing plan")[2] was a legislative initiative proposed by U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt to add more justices to the U.S. Supreme Court. Roosevelt's purpose was to obtain favorable rulings regarding New Deal legislation that had been previously ruled unconstitutional.[3] The central and most controversial provision of the bill would have granted the President power to appoint an additional Justice to the U.S. Supreme Court, up to a maximum of six, for every sitting member over the age of 70 years and 6 months.

And your point is? President Obama has never suggested anything of the kind. If you are trying to say that all sitting presidents try to threaten, cajole and persuade the SCT, then you have stated the obvious.
