Obama's Price |
2016-01-29 |
[CBSNews]. Hillary Clinton on Tuesday said she was open to appointing President Obama as a Supreme Court justice. Clinton acknowledged that the next president might have the opportunity to appoint several Supreme Court justices. Nearly half of the court -- four of the nine justices -- has served on it for 20 to 30 years and are either over the age of 80 or approaching it. "We need new justices who actually understand the challenges we face," Clinton said. We need Justices that believe the Constitution means what it says. Is Hillary offering this to get Obama to put the kibosh on any possible charges? Is this Obama's price for doing so? Inquiring minds want to know. |

#8 OMG, that would be waaaay too much work. It would also be evident very quickly, to his peers and his clerks, that his legal mind is as flabby and puny as his physique. And he knows it. Hillary may as well have offered to make him an NFL quarterback. What a b!tch! LOL |

#6 After the revelations of this afternoon I may have to revise my "what ifs". Could Bloomberg be substituted for Hillary at the last minute to save the Presidency for the Democrats? |

#5 1 - requires actual work to be put on display for public review * - yeah, I know the clerks can write it but this is a man who demands he is the smartest in the room and unlikely to pick 'bright' clerks. 2 - no travel time |

#4 The donk's view the constitution as an impediment to gut/circumvent. The supreme court has positioned itself to be the tool of choice for gutting the constitution. All that is needed is five justices willing to sell their souls. |

#3 Nah, she's just playing to a portion of the free-stuff crowd - a way of elevating Obama to deity status. |

#1 if we had a real media watchdog I think they would question Hillary's judgment at appointing a person who has been in front of the court repeatedly for violating the constitution as a judge who would now be on the Supreme Court. But then again she did just gain Chief Justice John Roberts' support. |
