Political hypocrisy

Just another example of hypocrisy that I find around this place. It seems to me that all the people who were so overjoyed with the SCOTUS when they ruled on the ACA are the same people who are now saying how fucked up the SCOTUS is because of the Hobby Lobby case. It reminds me of Thomas Jefferson’s attempting to impeach Supreme Court Justice Samuel Chase because Chase disagreed with his politics. If it wasn't for John Q. Adams defending Chase, disagreeing with the President could have become a precedent for impeachment. Jefferson actually tried to market political dissent under high crimes and misdemeanors. Kind of shows you what some of our forefathers really thought of their constitution.
