John Roberts, Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, is seriously considering stepping down from the nation’s highest court for personal reasons, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.
Roberts, known for his conservative judicial philosophy, has served on the Supreme Court since 2005, having been nominated by President George W. Bush after the death of former Chief William Rehnquist.
RadarOnline.com has been told that Roberts, 55, could announce his decision at any time.
The decision paves the way for President Barack Obama to make his second appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court following his first, Sonia Sotomayor.
As in, "The rumor is false," or "OH NO THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING"?
No

F***
I got the link from Drudge...after I posted it he added the second line...so maybe he is now waiting for additional news.
I’ve never heard of Radar Online either.
Will begin to wad my panties (FIGURE OF SPEECH, FOLKS) when I see this is corroborated
Disaster is the first word that popped into my mind too.
A gay blog? Kerpiffle.

It already has gotten to that point.
The Great Fall is coming and its unstoppable.
From Drudge:
“TOP COURT SOURCE TELLS DRUDGE: ‘THIS IS NOT HAPPENING... NEWS TO ME’... DEVELOPING... “
Come to think of it, what legitimate news source has their website decked out in putrid pink?
He’s had some seizures in the past few years, so if he really is leaving, it might be due to health:

Doing it to a Republican is harder, because the Republican usually hasn’t sworn his soul to the machine.

Actually it’s not gone from drudge, he dropped it to the first part of the middle column.
Here’s what I found about radaronline.com:
What most viewers likely don’t know is that folks behind RadarOnline aren’t strangers to the celebrity field. The site is owned in part by American Media Inc., the company that also controls supermarket tabloids the National Enquirer, Star magazine and other publications. According to published reports as well as a person familiar with the matter, billionaire Ron Burkle and budding media mogul Yusef Jackson, son of Jesse Jackson, also own stakes.

Harriet Myers, Chief Justice.
[Obama will do even worse, and McCain, Hatch and friends will go right along with it.]
If Drudge moved it down from the top, its probably not as serious as it looks.
