Reply To: What now with ObamaCare upheld? Obama must have applied massive pressure

nfgo3 and the rest of you;

Could it be that Obama was totally uninvolved and this is simply how the cookie crumbled? Perhaps. But I think you are being a little naive to believe that it is totally unrealistic to say that Obama (secretly)applied some form of pressure or blackmail to get at least one of the conservatives to vote with the liberals.

And here is why. There is no question that if it would get struck down then that would be a terrible blow to Obama and could make him lose the election. He placed such a heavy emphasis on this thing (its obamacare!) as did the country that it could topple him. Why do you think its insane that he did some subtle arm-twisting or sweetening of the deal for Roberts? This could cost him the election for crying out loud!

Yes its a different branch of government….so what? You think no politician ever greased the palms or blackmailed or what have you.. a judge or justice or some aspect of the legal system? common.

Nixon did illegal things. Didn’t he?

What about Clinton? Lying under oath is illegal.

If a man has no God he will stop at nothing. Obama has no God. He stands for taxing us to death, illegals, gays, “a woman’s right to choose” (baby slaying) and every other Godless thing.

Yes I think he played dirty.
