Bad day at the SCOTUS for Obama Whoring General, er I mean Soliciter General.
I said Whore. I guess the "war on women" liberals will come after me. Too bad I don't have any sponsors!

It's a PDF. Hope your Adobe is up to date libs!
Oh and heck ya we have audio! Supreme Court of the United States
Didn't think I would leave out liberals educated at public school who can't read a legal doc, did ya?
Bottom line Verilli got his butt and head handed to him.
Here's some highlights of the questions legal drubbing Verilli got:
That's just some of the highlights. There was also an extended questioning about whether this precedent of a mandate could extend into forcing us to buy burial insurance.
Bottom line, the Conservative Justices really made it clear they could see where the government is going with this mandate.
I loved it. Now let's see if they will wimp out when it comes to voting on this.
Keep the Conservatives Justices in your prayers!

Here's some highlights of the questions legal drubbing Verilli got:
JUSTICE KENNEDY: Can you create commerce in
order to regulate it?
JUSTICE SCALIA: So, any self-purchasing? Anything I -- you know, if I'm in any market at all, my failure to purchase something in that market subjects me to regulation.
CHIEF JUSTICE ROBERTS: Well, the same, it seems to me, would be true, say, for the market in emergency services: police, fire, ambulance, roadside assistance, whatever. You don't know when you're going to need it; you're not sure that you will. But the same is true for health care. You don't know if you're going to need a heart transplant or if you ever will. So, there's a market there. In some extent, we all participate in it.
So, can the government require you to buy a cell phone because that would facilitate responding when you need emergency services? You can just dial 911 no matter where you are?
JUSTICE SCALIA: Could you define the market -- everybody has to buy food sooner or later, so you define the market as food, therefore, everybody is in the market; therefore, you can make people buy broccoli.
That's just some of the highlights. There was also an extended questioning about whether this precedent of a mandate could extend into forcing us to buy burial insurance.
