John Roberts is the Chief Justice, and also a brilliant lawyer. If he brings a previously rejected case to conference he’s staking his reputation with his colleagues on it.

No, he's not. Roberts is effectively killing it. This is done as a courtesy to the other justices. That people seem to think this means something different only goes to show how few people here have even a basic understanding of how the USSC operates.

This case will be denied 0-9 with no comment. You can count on it.

Obama’s Presidency will go down in history as being illegal and pathetic. But then again he was the first!

I don't understand why Roberts would bring this case to conference as a courtesy to the other justices. Why would it be a courtesy, to give them a chance to swear off this issue forever?
