Roberts is getting so much negativity and I am not sure it is fair. Kennedy who was nominated by Ronald Reagan does not get near the anger and he has been against us much more than Roberts. Roberts score is 100 to 2....Why is he getting so much grief when Kennedy does not????????
The seeds for a second American revolution are now sprouting up.
The USSC took the case and rendered a decision. I doubt that they will take the case up again, at least not until there is a shift in the make-up of the court.
The USSC chooses what cases to accept.
Yes. But it does not take five to pick the case, or as they say "to grant cert". Four is plenty to do that.
Would not surprise me if someone doing the “Chicago way” may have either threatened him or his spouse/children. He does have children and may had to look out for their safety.
Revolution is coming and coming soon.
Yes, it only takes 4 to grant cert. But, until the law actually takes affect in, what, 2014, can there be anything materially different that the court did not just rule on. So, the earliest this COULD be revisited would be 2016 or 2017. And there would need to be a philosphical shift in the court driven by a change in the make-up of the court for them to re-visit this anytime in the near (10 years or so) future, IMHO. I do not see the court wanting to see this on the docket again.
Basically the court ruled that if you want to dismantle the law, you need to do it politically, in congress. And let the electorate decide.
Because Roberts' decision is one of the very worst in American history, and it will have unimaginably bad consequences. This decision puts us on a sure path to tyranny by basically granting the federal government unlimited power.
I am more than a little annoyed that a short lived majority that came about due to a crisi is able to burden the American people for generations to come.
Second, he sides with with the conservative side 75% of the time in 5-4 decisions.
Most of the decisions where he sided with liberals were not nearly of the consequence of this decision (Kelo excepted - but even there he wrote a separate concurrence limiting the scope of the liberal majority).
To use a criminal analogy, most of Kennedy's liberal votes were misdemeanors, where Roberts vote is a major felony.
Not likely. Levin read from a nine page article in which Roberts was interviewed. It was a frightening read because Roberts revealed himself to be just as he voted. Levin said that not once did Roberts state that his role was to uphold the Constitution.
Roberts is an extremely evil human being. He did what he did with his own free will. Don't many ANY excuses for this subhuman scum.
The damage this evil cretin Roberts will do to our Republic is incalculable.
What a pathetic fool Roberts is. I am disgusted. If I said what I want to say, I would be getting a visit.
No doubt someone’s got pictures of the homosexual.
Believe me, if I wrote what I truly felt I would be getting a visit too.
I have a vast library of Liberty and economic books. I have read extensively on the Founders.
The Founders biggest fear was an all powerful central government. They looked at government as a necessary EVIL. They knew clearly the type of men attracted to such power. They tried their best to limit the ability of the government to grown.
Jefferson was extremely fearful of the judiciary. He rightfully stated that if true tyranny is to reign in our Republic it will be through the judiciary.
If our Founders were alive today they would advocate Revolution to restore our Republic. They would understand we are too far gone for legislative solutions at the Federal level.
The only way a second American Revolution an occur is through the several States leading an effort to remove from the Federal government all current powers outside the Constitution. Currently I can't see that happening. We will have to keep resisting the evil push towards an all powerful State.
The RINOs will without a doubt disappoint us. Very dark days lie ahead for our Republic.
I just read The Harbinger. It explains Isaiah 9:10 prophecy and our country turning from the compact of our Founding Fathers with God, how America has received the same warning as Ancient Israel when it turned from God.
Just in the last week, obama hand wrote a verse from this very prophecy on the top girder for the new Freedom Tower, (rebuilding the World Trade Center) and the fool does not even know (or maybe he does and is proud of himself) it is about God’s judgement on a fallen, arrogant people.

I did not realize that the St. Paul’s church, at Ground Zero is where George Washington dedicated our country to God immediately following his inauguration ceremony.
Good question, ace! And what's the bottom line of the silver lining?
METAPHOR OVERLOAD BUMP!
Shrinking violets are pulling at straws!
Roberts is there to keep the Court pristine so that Justice Ginsburg can wear her little ruffled dickey in an authoritative manner, as the socialist majority arrives at a collegial and apolitical consensus.
Pull my finger.
That scrawney old hag and those other two waterbuffalo are a disgrace to womanhood, let alone the Supreme Court!
Now we see that the Chief Justice is a bitter disappointment and a disgrace to the nation!
