I've seen him post on the Ywain boards so I would assume that he's not from ACF.

I would like to think that this case will finally make the right STFU about judicial activism but Groucho is right, as soon as this one is over and SCOTUS strikes down something they like they'll be bleating in the streets once again.



I don't vote for Republican, or Democrats for that matter, and consider myself moderate. But even I know the difference between Judicial Review and Judicial Activism. The court is exercising Judicial Review. Now we can argue as to whether that was the original intention of the Founding Fathers, to grant the high court that power, but you would be hard pressed to argue that they are being activist judges in this case.

Marbury vs. Madison established Judicial Review, and that was in the beginning of the 19th century, not at the founding of the court. I personally believe that Judicial Review gives the court ultimate authority in our land. The court is going to be partisan, as it is made up of appointees from both the left and the right. I wish they were all moderates, but we can agree that kool-aid drinkers like Alito and Kagan are ultimately where all justices will end up being, right or left, they are different sides of the same busted coin.



It's all judicial review, or judicial activism. It all depends on your perspective.



Nevermind, I thought maybe someone else was intelligent on this board, I guess not.


Why don't you try reading the entire thread before posting stuff that's already been covered ad nauseum, Cupcake?

By the way...do you know who granted the Supreme Court the power of judicial review? (hint: it wasn't the Constitution)


So you're saying you've covered the truth ad nauseum and yet continue to debate it? You guys sound like real winners...especially that angry little troll with the dog as his icon.

I tend to just assume stupid people who come here are probably from ACF, since it's pretty much the only other forum still alive.


And because they're all dumb.

"I just remind conservative commentators that for years, what we've heard is, the biggest problem on the bench was judicial activism or a lack of judicial restraint, that an unelected group of people would somehow overturn a duly constituted and passed law," the president said.

What a egomaniac.

BUT IF PRESIDENT OBAMA HAD A SON THAT WAS A SUPREME COURT JUSTICE, HE WOULD LOOK JUST LIKE THIS.

If the Obama truly believes that super pacs are, in and of itself, a horrible perversion of the Constitution, he should be against it even if it works in his favor.

This case would not involve judicial activism if the court struck down a provision of a law that seems to indicate the congress has no limits when it comes to using the commerce clause.

It would be activism if the court said not only can the mandate stand it can do X, Y and Z (essentially writing the law) for future reference as was the case Roe v. Wade with its new and expanded powers of privacy.
