obama, who was speaking as a senator and explaining why he was voting against the confirmation of john roberts. obama said to paraphrase about 95% of the cases, the law is pretty straightforward that precedent or rules mean that either glia or just verbal one of them pretty much the same place. but in about 5% of cases, it comes from outside the law. you had identified that ingredient is politics. what do you mean by that? >> i talk about law and politics in the law component is pretty straightforward. the politics component is a very complicated thing. most of the time we talk about politics and we talk about partisan politics. will this policy helped the republican party or the democratic party. that plays some role in what the court does, the justices are chosen by republicans or democrats. and they have these sort of inclinations or feelings come but it's very rare for them to make the decision early on the basis of this advantage. whenever i give talks in public, and i say something like that, somebody raises the issue and i say, sure, that is one of those cases where pure partisan politi

>> i wonder why john roberts ruled the way he did when he -- it made no sense.nd he kind of gave them this loophole and now they can go back on it. now they admit that it was not a tax, but it does not matter, we are saltddled with this thing. >> he ruled according to the constitution. >> he thought, i'm not going to overturn it, it's your job, voters, and we let him down. >> i think it's because he is a rhino. >> animals cannot be on the supreme court, bill. >> yes, they can. if grover, a muppet can weigh in. then he can. >> the whole thing is unconstitutional. the ruling was that it was constitutional because it was a tax. so, now that it's not a tax, it's unconstitutional and we don't have to use it. so look at that. >> where does that lead us. >> obama-care is gone. >> is it that simple? >> as of this airing when people city the show. it's dead. >> you said the same thing about bill. >> that was wishful thinking. i know, we do have to worry about obama-care in space though. >> as someone who does not have insurance and may get beat up on the street at any ti

but then again, i think john roberts, he loves obamacare so much. >> brian: supreme court justice. >>. >> brian: it will cost an extra $700 or more per family and the staffers are making minimum salaries. a lot of them do it for the benefit. >> i'm not excited about doing that to staff or federal employees. but if the president thinks obamacare is a good idea and john roberts thinks he can twist the constitution and make obamacare constitutional, he ought to get it. >> elisabeth: what about the middle lane? if there is not funding obamacare, or if it is exactly funded, is that a slow road to eventually having no cash here anyway? >> right. what i've said is defunding obamacare is where we should start. that's what we're for. that's what the people who voted for us are for. we may not get everything we want, so i acknowledge that. the president wants 100% of obamacare. we want zero. maybe we make it less bad through a compromise. if the republicans pass defund, democrats continue to fund. maybe there could be a compromise where we got rid of some of the tacks and get rid of some of the
