Where's The Constitutional Crisis?

No surprises here.  The emphasis is mine:

WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court refused Monday to consider an early challenge to the federal health-care law, allowing appeals courts to hear arguments first over the constitutionality of the Obama administration's signature legislative achievement.

The justices, without comment, rejected Virginia Republican Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli's bid for early Supreme Court review. The move wasn't a surprise because the court rarely agrees to hear cases directly after rulings by federal district courts.

"Expediting our case would have been the exception and so, although disappointing, this is not surprising," Mr. Cuccinelli said in a statement.

Because you see, Mr. Cuccinelli, the case would have been an exception because the court steps into a legal fight before the issues are aired in appellate courts only rarely, in wartime or constitutional crisis.  And as much as you would like us to believe passage of President Obama's health care law signifies the end of the western world as we know it, it was not a declaration of war and does not come anywhere near constituting a constitutional crisis.  And yes, even the good Attorney General knows that.
