Bill OReilly took his medication last night the clear-vision pill that controls attacks of fair & balanced. His talking points about homosexual marriage must have sent the liberals in FOXs audience into shock and disbelief.
Speaking for myself, I was pleasantly surprised by this:
Its too bad Mr. OReilly did not ask if John Roberts got his marching orders from Steny Hoyer:
Im grateful to OReilly for getting the truth out to millions in his nightly audience who might not realize the damage done by the Supreme Court. If, and when, Congress tries to repeal the ACA, I can think of no argument for repeal more powerful than including the governments power to force Americans to purchase whatever the government orders them to purchase. Hillarycare II is only the beginning if it is not repealed.

If you watched the video you heard OReilly say:
I think OReillys loophole interpretation was true away back when activist judges needed some justification for dismantling the Constitution. The SCOTUS has not needed justification for a long time; not since the Congress conspired with the Court, or, at the very least, did nothing when a majority among 9 lawyers decided they were better legislators than were the elected officials they bulldoze.
Or maybe it is nothing more than all of those lawyers in Congress having too much respect for their own kind. Note that respect for the High Court grew in leaps and bounds after 7 lawyers decriminalized infanticide. Also note that neither Congress nor the Courts will defund Planned Parenthood regardless of Kermit Gosnell. It seems that at least two branches of government can force Americans to purchase unwanted goods and services, but they do not have the authority to stop tax dollars from funding infanticide.
The Commerce Clause
Two words general welfare justified abusing the Commerce Clause. Those abuses were the Courts worst offenses until the ACA came along. Today, whenever Socialists want something the SCOTUS has only to call upon the Commerce Clause. No further justification is needed. In that sense liberals transformed OReillys loopholes into original intent. Everyone who knows the malevolence done under the Commerce Clause surely understands that the Affordable Care Act opened the door to butchers hellbent on expanding cruelty far wider than infanticide.
Regarding homosexual marriage from an average Americans perspective: Justice Scalia has it right when he calls the Court diseased:
Finally, You gotta love Scalia for chastising his pal Ruth Ginsburg:
Speaking for myself, I was pleasantly surprised by this:
00:01:57 This there is no way on earth that the federal government should have the power to compel americans to buy any product, including health insurance.
00:02:04 The only exception is public safety as in automobile insurance. 00:02:07 If somebody hurts with you a vehicle, they must be able it to pay compensation.
00:02:11 So, the states mandate car insurance.
00:02:15 But five members in the supreme court ruled that the feds can now order everyone to buy expensive health insurance and the feds will dictate how that happens.
00:02:23 And punish you if you don't comply.
00:02:26 Again, there is no way the founders would ever have condoned that.
00:02:31 But the vote decider, chief justice john roberts found a legal loophole to justify its support.

Its too bad Mr. OReilly did not ask if John Roberts got his marching orders from Steny Hoyer:
House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) said that the individual health insurance mandates included in every health reform bill, which require Americans to have insurance, were like paying taxes. He added that Congress has broad authority to force Americans to purchase other things as well, so long as it was trying to promote the general welfare.

00:01:07 The united states of loopholes.
XXXXX
00:02:31 But the vote decider, chief justice john roberts found a legal loophole to justify its support.
XXXXX
00:03:16 So the supreme court heard the case and once again found a loophole to nullify two votes.

Regarding homosexual marriage from an average Americans perspective: Justice Scalia has it right when he calls the Court diseased:
The root error of the Courts erroneous decisions, Scalia writes, is its diseased exaltation of its own role:
XXXXX
Scalia extends his diseased metaphor as he examines, in his view, the Courts superfluous decision to even hear the case, which he later characterizes as a contrivance:
XXXXX
Thus, we have the image of a diseased court healing the healthy.
Overall, the image is of a ravenous (hungry), diseased Court that has infected a healthy system with its malignant decision. Rather than bringing order (or health), the Courts decision, Scalia states later, will bring chaos.
Finally, You gotta love Scalia for chastising his pal Ruth Ginsburg:
Scalias biting sarcasm on the topic of the Courts jurisdiction in the case is also wonderfully entertaining. He suggests, for example, that Court must be confusing the American Constitution with a foreign one: The majority must have in mind one of the foreign constitutions that pronounces such primacy for its constitutional court and allows that primacy to be exercised in contexts other than a lawsuit.
