Horrible administration
links in the article at site
SNIP;
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) has argued cases before the United States Supreme Court, successfully. President Barack Obama has not. He has never argued a case at the Supreme Court at all. That didnt stop his spokesmen from playing the constitutional lawyer credential card when reacting to the Hobby Lobby defeat on Monday.
Sen. Cruz is also an excellent troll, very much a match for Obama on that score. Obama treats matters of law as opportunities to troll see both his handling of the border and his Obamacare abortifacient mandate. Obama is trolling everyone on one thing or another.
Cruz is trolling Obama on his record of getting his backside handed to him by SCOTUS. The president has lost 20 cases by unanimous decision since January 2009 according to Sen. Cruz.
In some of those cases, the presidents administration argued for some sweeping, disturbing powers.
Attach GPSs to a citizens vehicle to monitor his movements, without having any cause to believe that a person has committed a crime (United States v. Jones);
Deprive landowners of the right to challenge potential government fines as high as
$75,000 per day and take away their ability have a hearing to challenge those fines (Sackett v. EPA);
Interfere with a churchs selection of its own ministers (Hosanna-Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church & School v. EEOC);
Override state law through the Presidential fiat (Arizona v. United States);
Dramatically extend statutes of limitations to impose penalties for acts committed decades ago (Gabelli v. SEC);
Destroy private property without paying just compensation (Arkansas Fish & Game Commission v. United States);
Impose double income taxation (PPL Corp. v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue);
Limit property owners constitutional defenses (Horne v. USDA); and
Drastically expand federal criminal law (Sekhar v. United States).
Obama wasnt done, as youll see on the next page.
