Chief Justice John Roberts gives Obama and Democrats a Trojan Horse

After wounding socialism, why didn’t Roberts go for the glory and slay Obamacare while he could? Chief Justice stepped aside to let We the People do the honors.

I think Roberts doesn’t want the Supreme Court to be the arbiter of the laws of the land. That would be the implication of his ruling. That is the Founder’s intents when they created the Supreme Court.

Congress is supposed to decide these things, not the Supreme Court.

Very good.

Thank you.

Read and study it.

This is the ;largest rope a dope in the history of mankind.

“They fail to realize that the sparks and flickering they see is Roberts trapping them in a ring of fire.”

[NoLibZone]

EXCELLENT FIRST POST.

Thank you.

Oh bull honey...

[4rcane]

so why do we even have a supreme court if they’re just a rubber stamp?

Welcome to Free Republic.

All that is necessary for the triumph of stupidity in the world is for intelligent people not to ridicule it until it slinks away in abject humiliation.

With that in mind, here's what I think of this idiotic nonsense:

Legal Jedi-Master-Super-Genius John Roberts^TM explains it all:

And a REAL Conservative's take on all those Beltway pundits suffering from Battered Conservative Syndrome^TM who can't bring themselves to admit to that they've just gotten the Full Sandusky (slapping sounds and all):

And finally:

Please. PLEASE. PUH-LEASE stop posting this imbecilic nonsense about John Roberts' incredible sleight of hand: It isn't even entertaining as humor.

John Mccain view Senators as rubber stamp to the Executive (for picking judges). So why do we have 3 branches of government again?

A very nice read, Read. (lol)

But since the PPACA advocates scarcely read their own piece of legislation, they probably didn’t read Roberts’ opinion either. In mob-mentality fashion, they see that four of their own kind appeared in the majority vote plus the word “upheld” and rejoice that the highest court in the land has put conservative opposition to flames.

You sound somewhat in your article like me here...Time and a better, closer reading of the decision should help everyone form a better conclusion.

However, as you rightly noted, they probably didn't bother reading the decision.

Related from Friday Ping, Twink.

Chief Justice stepped aside to let We the People do the honors.

Can we all stop grasping at this straw?

"We the People" elected this socialist turd in the first place. If Roberts had some brilliant, master plan that involved the voters saving the day, he's a dufus.

Trojan Horse? Imagine the Bills coming out of any would-be Socialist dominated House or Senate from now on.. The Socialists will be empowered by this decision to go rogue on America worse than they already have. Not unlike the Caliphate since Obama’s taken office. Roberts failed to enforce the Constitution, plain and simple.

[philman_36]

Your reply smells like liberal angst instead of conservative consideration.
Perhaps you could objectively critique her analysis instead of doing nothing more than posting imbecilic and childish pics.

[867V309]

Roberts says it's OK for the Guvmint to tell me I have to buy something I don't want, or pay a tax greater than the price of the product I reject?

Sincerely Amanda, Read my lips: THAT AIN'T FREEDOM!

Please take your big government obfuscation and peddle it somewhere else.

[philman_36]

Imagine the Bills coming out of any would-be Socialist dominated House or Senate from now on..
Yes, imagine that! A tax bill that had to be called a tax bill instead of it being promoted as a lie from the outset.

How novel!

I just can't, however, imagine a potential would-be Socialist dominated House or Senate openly and honestly stating that they were passing a tax bill...just like with that PoS bill that got passed into law and is being hung around their necks.

[philman_36]

Cute...Chief Justice Roberts pulled an Elrond.

[rolling_stone]

it was ronerts sworn duty to slay the dragon and he did not, he ran away...

I’m sorry but re-writing a bill from the bench is just as grievous as legislating from the bench.

IMO.

Interesting read, thanks for posting.
