to the Senate right now. The Constitution allows him to do it.

Of course, it would take some courage for him to do it, and for the Senate to confirm them, so it's just a pipe dream.

But, I can still dream.

He can add justices if he wants.

Well why only 2 then? Why not 10 or 15 that way the SC will be guaranteed to go your way.
Also if Obama can just add seats so can the next repuke POTUS. Something for you think about.

Oh goody!  Eventually there will be 300,000,000 Supreme Court Justices.  Just keep adding Justices and stir.

Before long we all will have a seat at the SC.

CATO said about the left reaction to the case:

http://www.cato-at-liberty.org/2010/01/22/if-you-prick-a-corporation-does-it-not-bleed/

-"Having dispensed with the repellent doctrine of corporate personhood, we can happily declare that journalists enjoy full freedom of the press … as long as they don’t plan on using the resources of the New York Times Company or Random House or Comcast, which as mere legal fictions can be barred from using their property to circulate unpatriotic ideas. You’re free to practice your religion without interference — but if it’s an unpopular one, well, let’s hope you don’t expect to send your kids to a religious school or build a church or something, because those tend to involve incorporating. A woman’s right to choose is sacrosanct, but since  clinics and hospitals are mere corporations with no such protection, she’d better hope she knows a doctor who makes house calls. Fill in your own scenarios, it’s easy."-
