The rest of your post is just beyond ridiculous.
That is who he is
The Fraud Of Barry Soetoro (a.k.a. Barack Hussein Obama) (Feb. 24, 2009)

I'm not engaging in "racist dog whistle politics" that's YOUR
opinion

Ridiculous

According to Richard Poe, co-author (with David Horowitz) of the 2006 book The Shadow Party:
"The Shadow Party is the real power driving the Democrat machine. It is a network of radicals dedicated to transforming our constitutional republic into a socialist hive. The leader of these radicals is ... George Soros. He has essentially privatized the Democratic Party, bringing it under his personal control. The Shadow Party is the instrument through which he exerts that control.... It works by siphoning off hundreds of millions of dollars in campaign contributions that would have gone to the Democratic Party in normal times, and putting those contributions at the personal disposal of Mr. Soros. He then uses that money to buy influence and loyalty where he sees fit. In 2003, Soros set up a network of privately-owned groups which acts as a shadow or mirror image of the Party. It performs all the functions we would normally expect the real Democratic Party to perform, such as shaping the Party platform, fielding candidates, running campaigns, and so forth. However, it performs these functions under the private supervision of Mr. Soros and his associates. The Shadow Party derives its power from its ability to raise huge sums of money. By controlling the Democrat purse strings, the Shadow Party can make or break any Democrat candidate by deciding whether or not to fund him. During the 2004 election cycle, the Shadow Party raised more than $300 million for Democrat candidates, prompting one of its operatives, MoveOn PAC director Eli Pariser, to declare, 'Now it’s our party. We bought it, we own it…'"

After Obama insulted SCOTUS during the state of the union speech, I would be surprised if they obliged his request.
Yeah, I was wondering if they had to comply with his request. I guess they don't so it will be interesting to see what happens.

Then why don't we hear about John Sidney McCain, or Ronald Wilson Reagan? Why only Barack Hussein Obama? Dog whistles.

Orly Taitz? Are you seriously citing to a letter written by Orly Taitz? You do realize that she has absolutely no credibility, right?

Anyway, trying to get back on topic - I feel at this point that SCOTUS should review the case on an expedited basis. We know what the legal arguments are, we know what the issues are, so why wait at this point?

Way to COMPLETELY MISREPRESENT what's happening. Though I shouldn't be surprised.

The Supreme Court normally takes cases only after they've been reviewed at least once by appellate judges.

Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli is trying to CIRCUMVENT THE PROCESS by skipping over that part and going straight to the Supreme Court.

The Obama Justice Department is saying that's inappropriate and that this legislation should follow normal protocol through our court system.

And you present it as Obama wanting to delay the process, as if it were on the proper track and he was asking the court to hold off "just because".

I shouldn't let this kind of crap tick me off anymore, but somehow this level of dishonesty always does.

Didnt Obama just a few weeks ago ask for this to be rushed so he could ignore the judges ruling voiding the whole law?

Is there a resaon why Obama wants to wait? Heck, he should be asking for it, right, standing right up there and saying, yes, lets get this over with...or is something wrong with bill?
Eh, I didn't have a question but want to see the excuse for expediency and the need to bypass normal process.

Why would we need normal procedure, you may ask? Perhaps you can provide an answer to that as well?

Who is asking for a delay? And who is asking for expediting the process? You need to figure that out first. But then, is there anybody asking for a delay?

You have that backwards.

Obama is not asking for a delay.

He is asking for the case to proceed according to the normal process.

It is the other guys who have requested the case be expedited.

No, but he knows better about law and the constitution (than Obama).

Actually that would have been US District Judge Roger Vinson who gave Obama just 7 days to file an appeal, when he declared the healthcare reform law unconstitutional..

“Because the defendants have stated that they intend to file a subsequent motion to stay if I were to ‘clarify’ that I had intended my declaratory judgment to have immediate injunction-like effect (which I just did), I will save time in this time-is-of-the-essence case by treating the motion to clarify as one requesting a stay as well,” Vinson said.

That means RUSH IT..
