Quote of the Day – President Obama Edition Part 7
Ultimately, I’m confident that the Supreme Court will 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.And I would like to remind conservative commentators that for years what we have heard is that the biggest problem is judicial activism and that an unelected group of people would somehow overturn a duly constituted and passed law.
President Obama on Supreme Court deciding the fate of Obamacare.
Where to begin with this?
Where in the constitution does it say that the federal government has the power to force citizens to buy a product?
Judicial activism is when the courts give power to the government it doesn’t have. Not when it rightfully limits it.
What dream world is this man living in that he thinks Obamacare was passed by a “strong majority”? If it were so strong why did they have to twist arms and give what in reality comes to bribes to pass the darn thing? I guess those are just details.

Seems to me the justices Zero appointed, unelected officials, were appointed by him expressly to be “activists” and basically, legislate from the bench and do precisely what he doesn`t want now. In his dream world, Utopia (capitol city – Nirvanna), liberal elites can have their cake and eat it too !
