"the 2nd amendment protects a legitimate individual right" - Barack Obama

[jimmy the one]

28. What about 4 liberal justices ruling for militia interp?

hack: The President and our party platform say it is an individual right. nt

Politics - the DNC & obama/biden cannot realistically as current leaders, contend they oppose the supreme court decision, would make too many waves for little gain, so they proclaim support for the SCOTUS ruling, expediently, without having to divulge true feelings on the ruling.

It DOES however, create a conundrum, since by agreeing with the supreme court5 republican rightwing 2008 heller decision by scalia, thomas, alito roberts & kennedy, is DNC & are joe & barack DISAGREEING with the 4 liberal justices Ginsburg, Sotomayor, Breyer, Stevens who ruled for the militia based right?

.. how about democrat DU readers, do you think Ginsburg Sotomayor Breyer & Stevens were WRONG about ruling for the militia interpretion of the 2ndA?
.. I think they were spot on. I know it.

Had obamacare been shot down, obama would've had to 'accept' SCOTUS & once again repubs scalia, alito, thomas kennedy & 'roberts', but he surely would've disagreed with the decision.
A difference is that in obamacare, obama, like gore in 2000 bushvgore, could've vocally said he disagreed with scotus & supported ginsburg et al - while he accepted it.

There could be nothing to be gained by obama vocally disagreeing with heller 2ndA decision, since obama really had no dog in the hunt as the case with obama in obamacare & gore in bush v gore, so obama kept quiet on 2ndA. Why stoke the fire?
