SCOTUS votes 6-3 to reopen shuttered Texas

1. Roll Call 478 on H.J. Res. 59 (September 20, 2013) Earlier in September, House Republicans voted to fund the government at current spending levels while strengthening our economy and protecting millions of American families by defunding ObamaCare. Senate Democrats killed the bill, and President Obama threatened to veto it. 2. Roll Call 497/498 on H.J. Res 59 (September 28, 2013) With hours left until the government ran out of funding, House Republicans voted to keep the government ...

I have a questions for the liberals here. I've heard some liberal talking heads state that they believe that if the SCOTUS rules all or part of ObamaCare unconstitutional that it would actually be a good thing for the Dems and Pres Obama. Do you agree? On that same line of thinking, if the law is ruled constitutional, do you think it would be a good thing for the Republicans? In other words, if you lose you win and if you win you also win. ?? ...

Oyez! Oyez! Oyez! Is it just me or is anyone else bothered by the fact that there are no cameras allowed during the ObamaCare arguments? I know they never allow cameras in the SC and I think I understand why they don't --- in order to prevent any distractions with grandstanding and drama by the attorneys. That, and the fact they are the highest court in the land and most judges in this country are notoriously known for hating cameras. Even still, since this ruling w ...

in the ruling’s “wait-and-see” wording because these state laws have not yet been implemented the policies and lower court legal interpretations of that portion of the law have not been exhausted. After the initial “victory” boast in her official statement, Governor Brewer later channeled her inner candor in an interview, bemoaning how the victory had become “disgraceful,” (presumably based on her perception that SCOTUS had told AZ to ‘drop d ...

The exact quote is, “Just because a couple of people on the Supreme Court declare something to be 'constitutional' does not make it so." OMG. Is this the best the TP has to offer? Is this the same Tea Party whose platform is founded on the principle that, "The U.S. Constitution is the supreme law of the land and must be adhered to without exception at all levels of government?" One has to wonder if he has ever read it. Then he said, "The Tea P ...

Good! Republican leaders in the Senate have told Senate Democrats they will withhold enough votes to prevent a 60-vote majority that would end debate on Hagel and allow a final vote, according to a Senate Democratic leadership aide. The move means Hagel will not be confirmed until at least after the Presidents Day recess, and that he will not be able to travel to a NATO meeting next week where the Afghanistan war will be discussed. Retiring Defense Secretary Leon Panetta has pledged ...

They stated they didn't have enough evidence that it was Assad who did it, so they want to wait for the U.N. report.Obama seems to be pushing on, holding conference calls with "some" congressional members, but not all. Kerry and Hagel still seem to want intervention stating Assad is behind the whole thing. Syria and Iran has threatened to bomb Israel IF the U.S. intervenes. So....what's the answer? Yes or No and why? British MPs have voted to reject possible military action aga ...

As to the other poster, Mr. Boehner is refusing to allow a vote -therefore HE is currently holding the government ***. It certainly is not Obama who controls that vote. Mr. Boeher thinks because he/rogue GOP cannot get what they want legislatively that they will force it by hurting Americans and America - I really do believe the blowback on this strategy will not be pretty - and I believe both parties will suffer.

If the election was not fixed in favor of Hillary, Bill could have done some serious damage arguing with the Black Lives Matter protestors. The Clintons have faced criticism from BLM activists and younger black voters for months now over that bill, which they say put an unfairly high number of black Americans in prison for nonviolent offenses. After a protester interrupted him repeatedly, Bill Clinton began to take on that critique directly, making the claim that his crime bill was ...

I see no purpose to the electoral college if we the people vote. It nearly cancels out the largest majority for whatever candidate wins. They have to have enough electoral votes. What I don't understand is does the one with the most electoral votes win even if they didn't get the most actual votes from the people? I say we need to do away with that and super packs and all else that causes one to buy an election. I think we should go back to paper ballots too. I am sick to death o ...

The GOP's campaign for strict voter ID laws is affecting another voting bloc. —By Dana Liebelson | Tue Oct. 29, 2013 3:00 AM PDT 3 Kheel Center/Flickr Women have been allowed to vote in the United States since 1920, after the passage of the 19th Amendment.

It's nice to see at least one politician in this country has a spine. Thank God for Governor Perry for putting the National Guard on the border!! He has to do what the Feds won't do. Go figure.

Amen to that! Good news for Texas women - who want to make their own choices.
