Amendments are part of the constitution, including the income tax amendment. He's got to uphold that as much as the rest of the constitution. Why not try to repeal the income tax amendment? So many are enraged by all this. Now would be a good time to try.
Ping for later: Also, I have always maintained that those in power can make the legal into illegal and the illegal into legal.
Traitors by the pair
Governmental Systems and rules and such work great...unti you plug in human beings...then everything goes to pot.
Nuts! It is a horrible ruling with NO silver-lining. Yesterday, Mark Levin eviscerated the ruling.
Roberts is a purely evil man. What he did was to vastly increase the Power of the State.
If anyone thinks there is anything good about this ruling they are delusional.
CJ Arnold simply acted as he was expected to. He did us a great favor in underlining the fact that we’re playing a rigged game that we can never, ever win.
Whether the GOP wins or we get “conservative” judges is irrelevant. The game is rigged.
The author of this piece of trash can shove it where the sun doesn’t shine. Lawyers have taken this country down the path of destruction. Please don’t use the word “Justice” when referring to the traitor John Roberts.
“Also, since the Obamacare (tax) law did not originate in the House, it is illegal.”
It would be illegal either way, since tax or no it spent money and spending bills have to originate in the house. That’s why they went through the charade of gutting an unrelated bill and “deeming” it to have passed the house.
Strange since he announced today that he felt he had to save the bill at all costs, it was the will of the people. Well he did save it in a way that defied any sue of legal logic, or common sense.
God I hate Lawyers.
Yes, indeed.
There is no short-term or long-term silver lining. Only a political necrophiliac could see something attractive in this corpse of a ruling.
There are no words in the tongue of men to describe the treachery that has taken place, nor the retribution deserving of Roberts.
I would have the SS (interesting share of an acronym these days) knocking on my door, if I said what I really thought.
I’m all in! Throw him out and another 535 if neeed be. Whatever it takes, for as long as it’s needed.
I despise him. I don’t care what kind of chess game he thinks he was playing, it was within his power to shoot down this unconstitutional pos, in fact it’s in job description. He didn’t have to find ways to “finesse” it for the sake of politics or anything else-it was his JOB to protect the Constitution and we the people from unconstitutionality, and if this doesn’t fit the bill then nothing does. He and his defenders can spin like a top, he didn’t do his job when he needed to do it like never before.
“Amendments are part of the constitution, including the income tax amendment. He’s got to uphold that as much as the rest of the constitution. Why not try to repeal the income tax amendment? So many are enraged by all this. Now would be a good time to try.”
In what way is the penalty an income tax? It doesn’t tax income, it taxes people for existing without insurance coverage. It’s a poll tax.
When even Kennedy would have dismissed this pos, then Roberts is really reaching, stretching to the breaking point, to try to defend this on any grounds. Fricken politics, I hate these people for playing games with real people’s lives and freedom. I wish they could all be dismissed at the push of a button-we could do better choosing from the phone book, as said Buckley.
“Strange since he announced today that he felt he had to save the bill at all costs, it was the will of the people.”
Who said this, Roberts?
Sorry, I missed that, can you please provide a source?
Here is your comment... I hate his guts!
LLS
So because politicians are elected by we the people, it can never happen that they’ll try to inflict unconstitutional legislation on us against our will beause after all we elected them? The what do we need him and the Supreme Court for? After all, we must have agreed beforehand to whatever any politician inflicts on us, after all we elected them. He’s a disingenuous lying pos.
Ironic that old man Bush gave us Justice Souter and GWB gave us John Roberts both notorious traitors.
