John wrote yesterday in the New York Post about the “unerring liberal inability to accept the substance and merit of opposing arguments,” a phenomenon that has produced preemptive attacks on the integrity of the Supreme Court after the ObamaCare oral argument.
The distinguished law professor, Ronald Dworkin, is the latest liberal to libel the Court. At the New York Review of Books blog, he asserts the legal issues in ObamaCare “are not really controversial;” that “basic constitutional principle” and Court precedents “obviously” support it; that conservative justices are ignoring “text, precedent and principle;” and that the distinction between regulating commerce and making everyone buy a product is “pointless.” Perhaps he missed the point in the colloquy between Justice Breyer and Michael Carvin; or skipped the Eleventh Circuit’s 207-page opinion (jointly written by Democratic and Republican appointees); or perhaps he lacks the ability to accept the substance and merit of opposing arguments.
