Should Justice John Roberts Be Impeached?
11/10/2016 | Charles O'Connell

Posted on 11/10/2016 5:44:54 PM PST by CharlesOConnell

"I, John Glover Roberts Jr., do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God." - Oath of Office, September 29, 2005

Generically, an impeachment may be an inquiry into the integrity or validity of a practice, but with respect to high office holders, it seems to be an allegation or charge of official misconduct.

If Justice Roberts cast his vote under duress from the President regarding National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius (2012), the Affordable Care Act decision-if it might be imputed that he failed in his oath to 'defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies…domestic', is the matter impeachable?

You do not impeach him. You have the FBI investigate(sans Comey and other compromised FBI) to see how badly he has been compromised and if he has you ask politely for him to resign. You only impeach him if there is just cause and he refuses to do the right thing himself.

The only way to save this country at this point is to investigate everything that has raised eyebrows and there is so much in almost every department in this government and outside from Soros, to the media, to the Clinton Foundation and on and on.

That to me is a strongly held but linkless belief. The Arab foreign exchange student with Saudi purchased Harvard degree. Hell Barry himself claimed he was Kenyan born in a biographical sketch he used for 16 years. This is all well known and will break loose soon. Sure would hate to have him address all his deeds to Saint Pete. But I,m sure they have a trap door for such cases.

>This blackmail charge is not persuasive.

And there you are wrong. The dissident to the ruling is actually Roberts. The conservative Justices published his original decision without alteration after he flipped at the last minute. That absolutely smacks of blackmail. Nor is it the first time it’s happened. We have a tape of LBJ laughing about blackmailing the chief justice over something he did in Mexico city. Had the guy crying on the phone according to LBJ.

> One has to wonder where Roberts REALLY got those adopted children now that we know a lot we never knew before particularly about the Clinton's. There's a huge black market for stolen children and teenagers to feed sicko’s twisted appetites and it was happening right at the topmost positions of our own government.. Man this stuff makes you want vomit to think the there are really people getting off on this stuff...

Children adopted by gays are frequently used as sex toys which is why Russian banned the US from adopting. Maybe this recent mania in foreign child adoptions is about child molestation not helping the kids.

>Thanks for the clarification. In other words, the odious Roberts will be successfully impeached when pigs fly.

If Trump can find out what he’s being blackmailed with he can force him to resign.

Yeah I didnt want to say it but that was something I knew that would be read into it. Our government is run by a lot of very sick people at the moment. Time to clean house.

< Congress really should give a tax credit to those that had to pay the fine.

I’m on board with that. We were really taxed without representation on this. One has to wonder what else they through in the AHCA legislation that is really damaging other than the penalty. I imagine a LOT...

Does the president nominate to the court with the Authority to name the Chief Justice?

Trump needs to hire Michael Corleone to question Roberts....sort of like he interrogated his brother-in-law. Tell him is out of the family business......but don’t say he didn’t tell Tatellia.....it insults the Don’s intelligence. Go ahead...give him a drink. Here are 2 airline tickets.......now get out of my sight.

I remember Roberts saying about the decision that you get the government you elect. The failures of the ACA led to big GOP victories in Congress and maybe the election of President (elect) Trump.

That’s what I originally thought too.

My ‘bone head’ statement was meant to imply he may have put himself in situation where he could be “compromised”.

If so it needs to be quietly investigated and if demonstrated, he needs quietly encouraged to “retire” or publicly face impeachment and prosecution.

Though the “vengeful” side of me wants the book thrown at him for all the damage his “problem” has caused!

He should be offered immunity to testify about being blackmailed. I would gladly free him if it brought down the left.

I agree with you.

Another yuge disappointment passed on, like a kidney stone, by the Bushes.
