So SCOTUS is going to manipulate 2012 with review of healthcare law.

Healthcare law will be overturned.

1. Not necessarily - the jurisprudence isn't there.

In the lower courts and circuit courts, it's been upheld more often than struck, and the only judges striking it have been right-wing loonies.

I did notice that the Obama admin is fast-tracking these cases, which implies that they're confident the ACA will be upheld.

2. What about the man-date?

3. "right wing loonies"

Yeah, it's a good thing we don't have any of those on the Supreme Court. Nothing to worry about there.

4. Snort. ROFLMAO!

:rofl:

5. Point! But I have the feeling that at least Kennedy, and maybe even Scalia will vote to uphold.

Scalia's politics are funny - he's conservative as hell and a real asshole, but more old-school, rather than than modern batshit.

6. Scalia, Grimace, Roberts and Thomas will not do Mr. President any favors.

Not that should be doing any favors, but harm is their intent, has been since the day he took office. Do you recall Grimace at the State of the Union?

7. Whew. right on. nt
