Crucial times for the Supreme Court

[nat4900]

Your opinion matters regarding the 4 crucial decisions that will be rendered by the SC later this month. Questions:

1. If the ACA is found unconstitutional, how will the public react?

2. If Obama's Immigration executive order is also found unconstitutional, how will the public AND the congress react?

3. If same sex marriages are found to be unconstitutional, how will the LBGT community react?

4. If capital punishment is also found unconstitutional under the current methods of capital punishment, how will the public react?

That's a big basket of reactionary fodder.

1. The conservatives will have an incredibly ugly victory party until the roof falls in on their heads when people lose coverage and start asking them what they are going to do about it.

2. Much the same thing, immigration reform will remain something the congress will not touch.

3. That one is not going to happen. I do not see how they could rule against it.

4. Some states will drop capital punishment, some states will use other methods.

if BURREL / ACA case goes against mrobama , it'll just make me smile . Those that lose coverage , well they should figure out how to get coverage . Course if lost it'll probably lead to single payer . ------------------------ Immigration , once again , if mrobama loses Real Americans will smile . -------------------------- Gay marriage , lots of screaming and shouting with much of America liking the ruling . -------------------- capitol punishment , no idea , not really an issue that I think about .

1. If the ACA is found unconstitutional, how will the public react?

Well, if they like their insurance, they can keep their insurance. If they don't like their insurance, they can discontinue it. In other words, their reaction will be freedom.

If Obama's Immigration executive order is also found unconstitutional, how will the public AND the congress react?

This one will be addressed with tweets and facebook posts, as everyone continues to go about their lives as if the problem does not exist.

If same sex marriages are found to be unconstitutional, how will the LBGT community react?

Erm, this is not a question before the court. I believe you mean to say "If same sex marriage bans are found constitutional, how will the LGBT community react?" The answer is that they will adjust their strategies. They'll move away from a litigation heavy strategy and capitalize on the growing public support for same sex marriage, to advocate for legislative solutions.

If capital punishment is also found unconstitutional under the current methods of capital punishment, how will the public react?

This is not really a question before the court, either. The court is considering much more nuanced issues regarding the death penalty deals with one particular drug that is being used in OK for lethal injections, in the absence of accessible drugs that have previously been the standard. So all they really have to decide is whether this particular drug passes the "cruel and unusual punishment" test. But the public is seeing a dumbed down interpretation, which is being construed as testing the constitutionality of the death penalty generally.

Since this is being viewed by most of the public through beer goggles, the reaction will be much gnashing of teeth and a mild windfall for Viagra as people try to compensate for their impotence.

1. The question of ACA's constitutionality is not on the docket. The only question is whether Obama can extend sibsidies to those on the federal exchanges when the law is explicit that subsidies are only for state exchanges.
When the Court decides that the law really means something and Obama exceeded his authority Obama will probably ignore the ruling and continue to dish out subsidies.

2.Few people give a shit about Obama's EO on immigration, other than bedwetters. Rolling back his unconstitutional exercise of power is just gravy

3.The constitutionality of same sex marriage is not up for decision. At issue is whether unelected judges make law or state legislatures and/or referenda. Since the will of the people is the only legitimate source of power the fagghadis will be back to lobbying (read: whining) to legislators to do something.

4. Capital punishment will not be found to be unconstitutional. I predict we'll rush a few more just for spite.

The court has already found the ACA constitutional this is about the subsidizes those who signed up through the federal exchange are getting.

Any changes on immigration law are to be done by Congress not the President through an EO the fact they aren't doing it fast enough for Obama does not change this.

Right now same sex marriage issues are decided by the states so it seems the court would have to take those on an individual basis.

I don't really see capital punishment bring ruled unconstitutional.

 

[nat4900]

My apologies....I should have been clearer regarding the ACA and the subsidies, which are the real issue before the court.

Well, REAL "FREEDOM" would be when choosing to bleed to death in a corner instead of going to the a hospital's emergency room; is that what you'd choose to exercise your liberties?

Perhaps........will you be one of those who'll tell your GOP congress people to get their asses in gear and pass some legislation as Obama has repeatedly requested?
I mean, how many years has congress done nothing but bitch?

Did you say that to Harry Reid when he basically shut the Senate down from January of 2011 to January of 2015?

 

[nat4900]

Um, what?

The point is if for you "real freedom" is refusing to have health insurance if you so choose.......then, the responsibility or that individual is to NOT ask others to pay for your ER visit.

Actually, YES, I did on several emails.....BUT, check your blanket statement about Reid's power to shut down all of the senate.
Ready to send some emails to McConnell????

Yep! At least you admit that is what the far left wants!

But hey who cares that Obama can drone anyone without "Due Process"..
