justices antonin scalia, anthony kennedy, clarence thomas, and samuel alito issued an unusual joint dissent, united in opposition. they said the law should be invalidated in its entirety under any constitutional provision. in a 65-page dissent, they repeatedly said the law "exceeds federal power" and accused the courts of "vast judicial over- reaching" to uphold the mandate as a tax and contrary to the specific words in the health care law. "to say that the individual mandate merely imposes a tax is not to interpret the statute but to rewrite it." now, justice kennedy read aloud parts of that dissent from the bench, and, scott, going into this decision today, many people thought if the court were going to uphold most of this law, it would be justice kennedy providing that key, decisive vote. but today, justice kennedy was the conservative, and it was john roberts giving that fifth vote with the liberals to uphold the president's signature achievement. >> pelley: a day for the history books, jan. thanks very much. the president and the chief justice have a somewhat rocky history. in 2005, th

does anyone wonder like i do what this skourlt, the one personified by antonin scalia and clarence thomasd have done in the landmark decisions of the post world war ii era. i doubt this pack of conservatives that includes john robards, sam alito, and justice kennedy would have removed organized prayer from public schools in the 1960s. that decision that ignited the moral majority. i doubt this court would have recognized a woman's right to decide on an abortion in the 1970s. let me proffer a tougher judgment, would they have upheld the 1964 civil rights bill, the statute that called it illegal to ban someone because of race. would they have approved the decision or joined in the dissent. maybe kennedy would have. we have the most conservative court since the '30s. these justices believe in original intent. they want the judge the case the way the founding fathers would. they wrote slavery into the constitution. it took a civil war and the 13th amendment to get it out. that's "hardball" for now.

. >> the supreme court justice antonin scalia's dissent in the sb1070 also criticized a policy that was before the court -- president of his recent announcement his administration would not deport many undocumented immigrants who came to the u.s. as children. scalia wrote -- , could youincapiÉ respond to that statement by justice scalia? >> unfortunately, his dissenting opinion highlights how ideology really is what is at play. that issue was not before the supreme court. the fact he felt he needed to speak to that and once again question the obama administration's authority on immigration at the same time the court had just issued a majority opinion, talking about the importance of the federal government's authority under the supremacy clause of the united states, again, just reminds us of the biases at play. it is not surprising that is coming from justice scalia. however, i think the important thing is both the majority decision actually gives more power to the administration and those of us that have been pushing the administration, like the dreamers, that have taken a courageous ac

a dissent read from the bench also in the arizona case by justice antonin scalia that was again not just furious but went after the president himself on immigration changes. so it's an amazing thing to see a court that is, a, says it wants to be out of the spotlight, and b, suffering from the lowest poll ratings this court has seen in a long, long time. doing things that seem to deliberately promote the idea that the partisan rift at the court is worse than it's ever been. >> on the issue of the campaign finance stuff, i realize citizens united has been famous since it was decided. it's getting more and more famous with each passing day in american politics as we see its impact. it's interesting to see the montana attorney general put out a statement in response to this ruling. montana law, their state law is getting overthrown by virtue of this decision. he seemed to signal he does not think this fight is over yet. he said, despite this disappointing decision the last word has not been spoken on the issue of how we preserve a viable democracy in which everyday people have a meaningful v

justice antonin scalia claimed the obama administration opposed the law because it, quote, desperately wants to avoid upsetting foreign powers. i guess he means mexico -- and that the majority ofpinion boggles the mind. this from a guy who thinks jesus liked the death penalty. as for jan brewer, she told a local white house, the white house opposition was part of a plot to get illegal immigrants to cross into this country to vote to help reelect the president. >> they want chaos. they want a larger voting base as far as i am concerned and they want the illegal immigration to continue so the illegals can all do whatever they want and register to vote. it's illegal but they are not enforcing the law. so what's going to happen to them? he is looking for votes. >> january bhch -- jan brewer is cubist art, three of the provisions, while keeping the one that allows police to use reasonable suspicion to check immigration status if they think they might be undocumented which concerned raul grajalva. >> i think it opens the door for increased violation of civil rights and discrimination. >> the

. >> 76-year-old justice antonin scalia has spent a third of his life on the united states supreme courtis apparently starting to get to him. he confessed today in writing, in a strange, even-for-him opinion that his mind is, and this is his word, "boggled." the most peculiar thing about justice scalia's dissent today is that he reached far beyond the record of the case, far beyond the arizona statute, and cited material that was never considered in the case. it seemscalia is very upset with president obama recent announcement restricting deportations of people under 30 who may be in this country illegally. scalia alone, among the justices, snuck that little bit into his thinking about the case. the president said at a news conference that the new program is the right thing to do in light of congress' failure to pass the administration's proposed revision of the immigration act. perhaps it is, though arizona may not think so. but to say, as the court does, that arizona contradicts federal law by enforcing applications of the immigration act that the president declines to enforce boggles

he was approving the law and i saw antonin scalia, sitting immediately to his right, who is the senior associate justice now and he looked distraught because he had lost this case. anthony kennedy who we thought was the swing vote, he later wrote a scathing, angry bitter dissent. where he said he would have invalidated the entire law. so that's how close this was. but the result was quite clear. >> sanjay, you heard governor romney a few moments ago say on day one he would act to repeal it. if you go to his website, it gives a pretty detailed view of his positions on health care what we don't from him is a sequencing. if on day one, i'm going to try to repeal it, you take the stems you can, you ask the congress to do things. you've talked to his policy advisers about this. how do they do the sequencing? the governor says, he would keep the pre-existing condition thing, keep the other more popular things. but how would they do it? >> well, you know, it's funny because i've asked that same question, john. there's not good answers on that particular issue. even with regard to some of the
