Obviously, I'm The Problem

Asked about Mr. Obama's astounding belief that the Supreme Court overturning laws is "unprecedented," press secretary Jay Carney explains that we idiot bumpkins out here in flyover country just may not be up to the task of understanding the words coming from that enormous brain that is our President/Teacher.

"...the president was not clearly understood by some people because he is a law professor, he spoke in shorthand." said Mr. Carney.

Does this mean that one must attend law school in order to understand this president, or is he saying that law professors are simply not understandable? Or could it possibly be that our president said something that makes no sense, and is untrue, making the statement itself incomprehensible? I guess that makes two people I don't understand.

Here is the exact quote with which WE seem to be having a problem:

"I'm confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress."

I'm absolutely serious when I say that the only truthful words in that sentence is that this congress was democratically elected. It is neither unprecedented nor is it extraordinary for the court to overturn a law, in fact, that is their job. This law was passed pretty much along party lines by the slimmest of margins, not a strong majority. And by the way, are there some other laws that aren't passed by congress? But the biggest lie is where he says that he's confident the court will NOT overturn. If he actually believed that, he wouldn't have made this remark in the first place.
