Title: HObama racking up judicial losses

Supreme Court rulings on Obamacare, Union Dues Reject Unchecked Power

Quote
President Obama suffered two final defeats in the Supreme Court on Monday, capping a 2013-2014 term in which the justices delivered several judicial hits to the White House while taking a firm stand against the unchecked power of the state.

The administration’s losses on Obamacare rules and compulsory union dues served as a rebuke on the Supreme Court’s final day after months of judicial decisions to rein in big government on issues such as snooping without a warrant, campaign finance restrictions and Mr. Obama’s recess appointment powers.

Just as damning was the way the court ruled in some of those cases. Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. corralled unanimous votes on privacy and recess appointments — cases that dealt stinging defeats to Mr. Obama, himself a lawyer and former lecturer on constitutional law.

In the more than five years that Mr. Obama has been in office, the court has rejected the government’s argument with a 9-0 decision 20 times.

Nice to see some checks and balances back in action.

Where was this court when the affordable care act was shoved down our throats? I am glad to see them checking power now but we could have really used the new found balls they are displaying a while back.

Indeed, we can win this fight only if all who oppose progressive socialism unite. We get beat because the democrat umbrella includes socialists, communists, fascists, statists, eco-commies/fascists, liberals(modern definition) anti-colonialists and leftists of all pedigrees. All are against our constitution and all are anti-colonialists. We must set aside our differences for the greater cause of getting these anti-Americans out of office as they are entrenched from top to bottom and America and it's constitution are under grave threat.

Minor note, Obama is no expert on constitutional law, either in terms of background, training, professional experience or insight.

"Lecturer" is the correct word for the job he had.  That's a guy that is the lowest of the low ranks in academia, basically if you contract with a university to go in and teach one course for $1800 for a semester, say a night course on MicroCircuits 101, you would be a "Lecturer".

For this category of teacher, usually no real experience is required.  In other words, if you had a law degree, you could quite likely get hired as a lecturer to teach the same course that Obama taught.

Although a lawyer getting out of school and actually working at a law firm in an area of specialty for ten years would know a lot about that subject area, that wasn't the case with Obama. 

In twelve years he was associated with a law firm in Chicago, he only generated 3,723 billed hours.

With a spouse in academia I can confirm this. Lecturers are usually brought in to fill in for sabbaticals etc.
