There will be no justice if Pres. Obama appoints to the Supreme Court.

“Obama could alter stance of federal appeals courts”


A second term for President Barack Obama would allow him to expand his replacement of Republican-appointed majorities with Democratic ones on the nation’s appeals courts, the final stop for almost all challenged federal court rulings.

Fourteen of the 25 appeals court judges nominated by Obama replaced Republican appointees.
The next president, whether it’s Obama or a Republican, also has a reasonable shot at transforming the majority on the Supreme Court, because three justices representing he closely divided court’s liberal and conservative wings, as well center, will turn 80 before the next presidential term ends.

The three justices are Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the leader of the court’s liberal wing, conservative Antonin Scalia and Anthony Kennedy, who leans conservative but on some issues provides a decisive vote for the liberals.
Even One new justice can produce dramatic change.  Justice Samuel Alito Replaced the more moderate Justice Sandra Day O’Connor and shifted the outcome in cased on abortion, campaign finance and other key issues, even though both were appointed by Republicans

Common Sense Review

This is another reason to remove Obama from office.  Right now the Supreme Court is pretty much balanced.  We cannot afford Justice appointed that don’t interpret the Constitution
