Well, you know we all want to change the world.

[onedoug]

He is open to review on that.

It'll never happen. 'Too many homies amongst Republicans.

[DoughtyOne]

Looks like it. Not sure that’s actually bad if they were to remain steadfast to the legality of their actions.

As it stands, not good...

[DoughtyOne]

I wouldn’t argue against your point of view on this.

[Rashputin]

Interesting, we had 2 people from each State to represent the people of the State when confirming Justices until the 17th Amendment was passed. Now we have two people from each State who represent their national party and national money machines more than the people of their State.

Without the 17th Amendment most of the Justices on on the USSC wouldn't have ever been confirmed by the Senate.

State Legislatures would have replaced a Senator who relied on their own personal "wisdom" rather than doing what the folks back home wanted done. Senators would walk the staight and narrow on very visible things like court appointments and most other things as well.

[DoughtyOne]

Beyond that, even Lefties among Republicans.

[MUDDOG]

even Lefties among Republicans

Must be the season of the witch.

[fatnotlazy]

And look at the sorry scum our “employees” elected.

[lee martell]

Talkers? I give you Ms. Kagan and/or The Wise Latina.

[HomerBohn]

...cause for disbanding the entire Supreme Court.

A lot of lefties would be sh*tting bricks if a Trump/Jindal ticket erupted from the Republicrat convention.

[DoodleDawg]

I do think judges should be elected by the people

The people gave us eight years of Barack Obama.

[aquila48]

While we’re at it, get rid of the 16th too. That has given the federal government first dibs on everything you make, destroyed your privacy, and has resulted in its uncontrolled growth.

[Rashputin]

Why single out Roberts ? Everyone on the court except Thomas seems to think their job is to legislate or obfuscate

[DoughtyOne]

Somethings sure up...

[txrefugee]

One dictator in a 5-4 decision can destroy God’s plan for the human family. Our nation, the Babylon of Revelation, will be destroyed, drowning in her own putrid rebellion against God. “Be not deceived. God is not mocked.”

[DoughtyOne]

I do mainly because of his actions on Obamacare, where he single-handedly foisted the thing off on U. S. Citizens.

I don’t disagree with your take on it in large part, but his actions on this one were so over the top you can’t deny what he did.

He’s just unfit to hold office.

[DoodleDawg]

...a Trump/Jindal ticket...

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.

[MUDDOG]

I miss the good old days, when $25 million was enough to make the Beverly Hillbillies super-rich.

[fatnotlazy]

I would rather let the people decide, flawed as they are, than have corrupt crony partisan senators pick them. Remember the present setup gave us Roberts, the two commies nominated by Obama and that dweeb, Kennedy.
