Judicial Watch Asks Congress To Review Supreme
Court Justice Elena Kagan's Role in Obamacare
OK ATS....
Here we go with yet ANOTHER underhanded scandal Barack Obama has been exposed as being complicit with. This time it also involves a Supreme Court
Judge appointed by Obama - Elena Kagan.
The scandal?
In July 2010, during her confirmation process, Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee asked Kagan in a letter: “Have you ever
been asked about your opinion regarding the underlying legal or constitutional issues related to any proposed health care legislation, including but
not limited to Pub. L. No. 111-148, or the underlying legal or constitutional issues related to potential litigation resulting from such
legislation?”
They also asked: “Have you ever offered any views or comments regarding the underlying legal or constitutional issues related to any proposed health
care legislation, including but not limited to Pub. L. No. 111-148, or the underlying legal or constitutional issues related to any potential
litigation from such legislation?”
Kagan’s answer to both questions was: “No.”
Documents Raise Questions about Kagan’s Role in Obamacare
Defense
Elena Kagan has said she was not involved in Department of Justice (DOJ) preparations for legal challenges to Obamacare.
Documents obtained by Judicial Watch as result of a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit suggest that Kagan helped coordinate the Obama
administration’s legal strategy to defend Obamacare.
FOIA emails clearly acknowledge that Kagan was involved in the strategy to defend Obamacare from the very beginning, and as recently as March 2010.
Then the president nominates Kagan to the Supreme Court in May 2010, and all of the sudden she knows nothing about the Obama administration’s legal
strategy for defending Obamacare...
It's only obvious that Obama hand-picked Elena Kagan to make sure that ObamaCare's individual mandate is ruled constitutional in the upcoming
Supreme Court vote. Kagan has already proven her complicity in this scandal by first lying through her teeth with the statement that she was not
involved in any Department of Justice (DOJ) preparations for legal challenges to Obamacare, then breaking the law in April 2011 by not recusing
herself from the High Court decision not to “fast-track” for Supreme Court review Virginia’s lawsuit challenging Obamacare.
Federal law, specifically 28 U.S.C. 455, states:
a “justice … shall disqualify himself in any proceeding in which his impartiality might be reasonably questioned.” It further says any
justice “shall also disqualify himself … [w]here he has served in governmental employment and in such capacity participated as counsel, adviser or
material witness concerning the proceedings or expressed an opinion concerning the merits of the particular case in controversy.”
When Kagan worked for Obama as Solicitor General, she helped CREATE many of the healthcare law's policies! Supreme Court judges MUST be
unbiased, especially when they will rule on what could be the MOST IMPORTANT Supreme Court case of our lives!
So now Congress, as a result of Judicial Watch exposing this, is investigating this... as announced back in June and reported on by
the Washington Times.
In a letter to committee Chairman Lamar Smith, Texas Republican, and the panel’s ranking Democrat, John Conyers Jr. of Michigan, the
lawmakers said that “contradictory to her 2010 confirmation testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee,” recently released Justice Department
documents show that Justice Kagan “actively participated with her Obama administration colleagues in formulating a defense” for the law.
The lawmakers, including 10 doctors and GOP presidential candidates Rep. Ron Paul of Texas and Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, said the documents
raise “serious questions” about Justice Kagan’s ability to “exercise objectivity” in any case involving the Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act (PPACA) that comes before the Supreme Court.
Evidently Congress is still requesting data related to this investigation, the only update I found to the June article comming in July:
House lawmaker asks Justice for data about
Kagan
However this update makes some serious issues the Congress has discovered that this post here has revealed, and it's probably these very issues that
not only will make the approaching Supreme court decision on the constitutionality of Obamacare more complex than it should have had to be, but also
the validity of Supreme Court rullings on it questionable, until answers - in truth - are given relating to the intentional lies Elena Kagan wrote in
reply to a congressional inquiry... also known as Purgery.
Honestly, what in the heck is up with all of these people associated with Obama and their comfort in purgering themselves, and lying through thier
teeth to the American People?
I have a theory...
I bet Elena Kagan is really sitting on some solid sh*t bricks right about now...
She's been caught lying to a Congressional Inquiry, and that for Judiciary Confirmation in her role as a Supremem Court Judge. If it's determined
that she indeed purgered herself she'll most likely be removed from the bench, and probably fined and imprisoned.
It's only obvious that Obama nominated her to that position, because he knew her complicity and asked her to purger herself to get the position. He
felt comfortable asking her that because Obama himself, is comfortable with purgery, including forgery, as the recent release of his birth certificate
he claims is official revealed.
And let's not forget Eric Holder's purgery pertaining to the Congressional Inquiry over Operation Gun Walker... It's most likely that Obama
Purgered himself there too... but that's a different topic.
It will be interesting to see what Obama has to say about Elena Kagan, when Congress ultimately questions him about her role in defense of Obamacare,
which is inevitably going to be asked...
Will he throw her under the bus like he did Eric Holder?
probably...
