It was blackmail.
The Chicago Way.
1. Roberts’ homosexual past
2. Roberts’ illegal adoption of his children
Shame on Bush for nominating this guy.
He wants everyone to love him.
He wants everything both ways.
Did somebody slip him a two headed quarter?
Can’t anyone do decent vetting these days, particularly for SCOTUS justices who are there for life? That is a serious blunder that needs to be remedied in this era of 90+ year olds.
It was blackmail.
+++++++++
I’m starting to think that Occam would agree with you.
Bush and the RINOS knew about Roberts’ homosexuality and the illegal adoptions and so did the ‘Rats. The ‘Rats just bided their time for 7 years until it was time to play the blackmail card.
The left rolled him like a pimp turns out a woman to work the streets. Now they want him humiliated and broken so he never thinks of leaving them.
If the left was rolling him why didn’t he just uphold the mandate/commerce clause instead of writing this illogical piece of crap tax mandate opinion which is opening him up to justified ridicule?
There you go introducing logic into a FR thread.:-)
Something...
Whatever happened in this decision, there was something underhanded going on.
The two things that were appealed out of the 11th circuit were whether the Medicaid expansion was unconstitutional and whether the mandate could be supported under the interstate commerce clause.
That’s pretty much it. NOT whether or not it was a tax.
So Roberts basically went out into la la land and pulled something out of his rear because HE KNEW IT FAILED THE INTERSTATE COMMERCE CLAUSE.
And he tries to argue - quite miserably, I might add, - that it IS NOT a direct tax subject to apportionment.
It’s not an excise tax, it’s not a duty or an impost tax, it is not an indirect tax that can be shifted to a consumer, it is a direct tax on individuals.
Something went down. He was threatened or paid off or coerced or something.
If he had any honor, he would simply resign from the court, disclose exactly what happened, and redact his vote.
I’d prefer that he resign from the court, disclose everything and RECANT his vote. FWIW
This is proof obama knew the vote, thanks to Kagen and Soto, and the blackmaid threats began.
And I’m also convinced every republican in any kind of leadership position is as dirty as they come. And they’re being blackmailed, too. That’s why they do nothing when the king issues a mandate.
I’m sure somebody will soon show me the error of my ways.
And why didn’t they roll him in the Heller case where he upheld the 2nd amendment
In any case we got royally screwed
Wonder if he read all the Nazi/Fascist portions of the bill
I called this one:
Roberts Switched Views to Uphold Health Care Law (Original CBS Report)

The dissent is unsigned because Roberts wrote it - it was originally to be his majority opinion. When he switched sides, the conservatives left most of it in place and didn’t sign their names to it to give a clue that it was originally his opinion.
It’s an embarrassing decision. I don’t see how it can be viewed in any other light.
Don’t specifically know...but there is interesting detail here.
