It has completely abrogated its authority and responsibility, not once but twice in the case of ACA!!!

Congress isn't going to magincally grow a sack and write good law due to the SCUSA bending. On the contrary, without the SCUSA performing its mandated duty of finding ACA unconsitutional and requiring the congress to scrap it and start over, Congress has no incentive to craft well written concise laws in the future.


The GOP has gotten into habit of reliying on the SCOTUS to fix their messes. They need to take care of their messes before they become law and thus left to the whim of the Court. You know damn well the Libs in the Court are biased and therefore you should not be surprised when they screw us.

For all the McCain and Romney haters, you can bet had they won you would not have a Kegan and Sotomayer on the bench. Maybe you wouldn't have anyone like Bork, but it would not be so hard core Left.
