“everyone thought would be upheld.”
Hrm? Some of us when the law was issued predicted it would be found unconstitutional for precisely the reasons that Roberts stated.
Speak for yourself, sir. You do not speak for us.
There is no “us”. Commentators worldwide widely predicted the Arizona law would be upheld. Conservatives were giddy about it. “Everyone thought” is a common expression, obviously it does not literally include “everyone”. And I hereby officially exempt you from it.
Are you seriously stating that prior to this decision the majority of folks on Free Republic thought the law would be struck down?
Nonsense. And speaking only for myself, I have less hope of the mandate being struck down. Unfortunately.
BTW, “everyone” thinks the mandate will be struck down.
