Sorry, have been working hard to try and keep the DOW above 13,000. The economic recovery is keeping me pretty busy
I don't see you could interpret Obama's remark as stating the SCOTUS doesn't have the authority. Obama was simply using a bit of the Right's own poison against them.
It was a heavy handed political remark for sure, but the Administration didn't fare well in the media last week and so they have to tighten up their line.
Obama's comments if anything we to reassure the base he was fighting for their interests...Reagan did the same thing.
