SEN. MCCONNELL BLASTS PRESIDENT'S REMARKS IN LEXINGTON
Kentucky's senior senator was in the Commonwealth Thursday and blasted President Obama for remarks made regarding the Supreme Court's current deliberations over the Affordable Care & Patient Protection Act:
“So earlier this week, the President did something that as far as I know is completely unprecedented: he not only tried to publicly pressure the Court into deciding a pending case in the way he wants it decided; he also questioned its very authority under the Constitution.Mitch McConnell (The River City News will link to McConnell's plan to solve this country's health care crisis as soon as our senior senator has one.)
“And if anybody had any doubt about that, it should have been dispelled on Tuesday, when a federal appeals court ordered an administration lawyer to clarify whether the administration does, in fact, believe that the courts of the United States of America have the right to determine whether laws passed by Congress violate the Constitution. This was a clear response to the President’s comments from earlier in the week, and proof positive of the signal it sent to the judiciary.
