Super Stupid

Steve King is Still Doing Steve King Things

Written by SK Ashby

Iowa congressman, secret border control agent, and man who can't forget what he buried that cornfield, Steve King, has introduced a bill that is so stupidly, hilariously unconstitutional and unenforceable I honestly can't even imagine what makes him think this will ever happen.

King's bill would prohibit the Supreme Court from citing its own legal opinions and rulings.

"It was my first order of business on the morning after ObamaCare passed into law, March 24, 2010, to draft and introduce my full, 100% repeal of ObamaCare," King said in a press release announcing the legislation. "By prohibiting the Supreme Court from citing ObamaCare cases, we will be truly eradicating this unconstitutional policy from all three branches of government so that the repeal will be complete."

If the Supreme Court cannot cite its own cases, that would mean no court can. And if no court can cite established case law then it would be as if there is no law. This is the dumbest shit.

I would note that the desire to replace "unconstitutional policy" with actually-unconstitutional policy is a uniquely Republican desire.
