I'll bet that they judge who found Obamacare's provision of forced insurance purchases to be unconsitutional is wondering about his future employment status.
Good to see a judge with both eyes AND a spine.
Early in his career, Hudson stated: "I live to put people in jail."[6] In what Hudson described as a "career-defining case", he prosecuted David Vazquez, a mentally retarded Arlington resident, for a 1984 rape and murder. Hudson's prosecution was based on a confession given by Vazquez after repeated interrogations, despite the fact that semen found at the crime scene did not match Vazquez.[5] Threatened by Hudson with the death penalty, Vazquez submitted an Alford plea and was sentenced to 30 years in prison.[7] However, inconsistencies in the case led detectives to continue to pursue leads, ultimately linking Timothy Spencer, a serial killer, to the murder.[5] Vazquez, who had already served 5 years in prison, was exonerated by Hudson's successor. Faced with the evidence of wrongful conviction, Hudson wrote of Vazquez in his memoirs: "I certainly wish him the best, and regret what happened. However I offer no apologies."[7]

In Scalia’s words, “where Congress has the author ity to enact a regulation of interstate commerce, it possesses every power needed to make that regulation effective.” Judge Hudson, however, waved this rule away with a cryptic statement that the Affordable Care Act doesn’t fit within “the letter and spirit of the Constitution.”
This utter failure to even explain why he was ignoring the Constitution’s clear command led several conservative commentators to dismiss Hudson’s amateurish legal reasoning.

Tar ... how do you like this quote:
“where Congress has the autho ity to enact a regulation of interstate commerce, it possesses every power needed to make that regulation effective.”
Using that line of reasoning - Congress could bring back slavery if they thought that it was necessary to make a regulation effective.
Do you agree that Congress has that power?
There you go again, trying to derail the thread. What is your opinion of "Hang Em Harry". Would you trust a judge who says his goal in life is putting people in prison? And, one who obviously ignored evidence in putting an innocent person in jail?
Do you really believe he is concerned with the Constitution or his own political philosophy?
Using that line of reasoning - Congress could bring back slavery if they thought that it was necessary to make a regulation effective.

The topic is the court decision that forcing citizens to buy insurance is uncontitutional.
Clean your glasses, Mr. Magoo.
Why would a guy named "Henry Hudson" be called "Hang em Harry" ?
During his career as a prosecutor, Hudson earned a reputation as a "hard-line and zealous crime fighter" nicknamed "Hang 'Em High Henry".[4][5] Early in his career, Hudson stated: "I live to put people in jail."

The federal judge set to issue one of the first decisions on the Obama administration's health care law has financial ties to both the attorney general who is challenging the law and to a powerhouse conservative law firm whose clients include prominent Republican officials and critics of reform.

Actually I made a mistake. It was not/is not Hang Em Harry," it was/is "Hang Em High Harry." Now to your question, why would he be called that?
Would you trust a judge who made such a statement? And who sent an innocent man to jail even though there was strong evidence he was innocent?
