THIS IS WHAT I MEAN WHEN I SAY 'IT'S ABOUT THE JUDGES, STUPID!'


OBAMA ADMINISTRATION FIGHTS TO SAVE HEALTH CARE LAW

RICHMOND, Virginia (Reuters) - Lawyers for President Barack Obama go to court on Tuesday to try to save the cornerstone of his healthcare overhaul, arguing that the requirement for Americans to buy insurance is constitutional.

A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit will consider whether a lower court was correct in striking down the requirement.  But they will not be the final arbiter in a fight that is expected to reach the Supreme Court.

The panel of judges -- selected at random by a computer -- turned out to have all been appointed by Democratic presidents, including two by Obama:  James Wynn and Andre Davis.  The third, Diana Motz, was appointed by President Bill Clinton.
