Sure, can’t rule that out either. Justice Blackmun’s released papers clearly show that there’s a lot of negotiating and horse-trading behind the scenes on the Court. The ones on how Kennedy became the 5th vote on preserving Roe v Wade are particularly enlightening.

But we’ll have to differ here. Yes I think that same sex marriage will be 6-3, but because Roberts will be motivated not to have that significant a social change happen on a 5-4 ruling. Just like how Earl Warren worked so hard to avoid a close decision on Brown v Board of Ed.

It is really embarrassing for the 6 SC justices, esp. CHIEF justice, to opine in such a weasel way on a landmark decision. Those black robes cocoon themselves too much.

Another institution from Founding Fathers becomes strictly and irreversibly political, clearly seen by everyone now.

If they lost, then yes, they would get a do over,

Because freedom, truth and common sense lost and empowering the corrupt state won, then no, its settled,

What is most amazing not a single person on either side of the debate expected the other 5 justices to even consider following the law.

Everyone just assumed correctly with the other 5 the law be damned they would just make it up as they went along.

But what if the intentions were and are to collapse the existing US health care system to pave the way for full government takeover and national health care?

A majority disliked Obamacare from the beginning and it's disliked even more now. It's clear we were lied to numerous times and are still being lied to. The federal and state governments have botched up this thing big time. Anyone who actually wants to give them entire control over our health delivery system needs to have their head examined.

As long as at least one House in Congress is controlled by the GOP, a government takeover would be very unlikely.

But all through this thing, the most unlikely scenarios have occurred.

You will never find that out unless he goes against the regime. However, removing him via impeachment would be a good start. But then again, the GOP has no spine so I guess that is out.

Unfortunately when all sides of the government are in on the scam, the people have few paths of recourse. In recent years elections did not work to stem the destruction of the country. My fear is that we control both houses of congress and the WH and we would still get the shaft.

Boehner? McConnell? If the present system collapses in chaos, as planned, government health care will be offered as the savior of the people and the GOP leadership will fall all over themselves to legislate it, IMO.

“The only good news out of this catastrophe is his BUSH connection with “JEB” should hurt the Bush clan’s attempt to put another one of those idiots in the White House.”

Don’t forget David Souter...Papa Bush 41 put that Leftist wannabe from New Hampshire on the court! Now Bush 43’s Roberts is lurching to the dark side as well! Maybe Jebbie will also have a chance to push the court toward global world governance? Don’t hide the Bushes!

Would disclosing a finagled adoption so long ago now hurt his career at this point?

It depends on what he did and has done since then, which is all cloaked in secrecy. Was it child trafficking? Did he commit perjury in various document? Did he commit conspiracy? Did he commit on going fraud in the years since? And on the questions would go.
