Is there any evidence that Roberts was blackmailed when he made his Obamacare ruling . . . which required such contorted logic . . . and left us all hanging? I need to know for an argument I am having.
He’s a closeted homosexual. Did pro bono work for a homosexual organization. There are photos of him with two of the guys, he looks just like them. His marriage is fake. He did an illegal adoption of two Irish children via Latin America. It’s all very creepy, and Bush was a jerk to appoint him.
Two very good and important points
Let’s not let conspiracy theories blind us about 2 important facts (one of them could be the key of ridding this nation of ObamaCare:

“it seems that by declaring the fee to be a tax he might have opened an avenue because the tax part of it made it a revenue bill which must originate as a revenue bill in the house. If it did not originate there as a taxing bill in its current format then it might not be constitutional.”
I’ve wondered if they had something on him like the Corleone family had on the southern Senator in “The Godfather Part II”.
Roberts’ illegal adoption is sufficient evidence. For all we know he might have blackmailed himself over it. Scaredy cat. It’s naive to think that there are explicit blackmail situations in Washington, horses’ heads in beds, like in silly Hollywood fantasies. A word can be passed to third, fourth and fifth persons, to a waiter at Trader Vic’s, valet parking attendant, and that is sufficient. I’ve seen it done in business, where a security guard, who wasn’t even working directly for the company that he guarded, was the ear and the mouth of the CEO. We know about your adoption, pal, it’s Chinatown!
That what appellate court do everyday..
As I say a conservative justice gives the will of the people expressed through their representatives the final say.
Its like the umpire calling strikes, as long as its in the strike zone its constitutional.
The libs want the courts (and have been fairly successful and getting the umpire to pick a side) but a conservative justice defers to the legislature..
BINGO
Anyone noticed that the first TWO justices President Bush picked were RINOS. It was only after blow back to Bush’s 2nd pick that Bush finally picked someone more Conservative
I do find it more than coincidental that CNN and MSNBC commentators were predicting that Roberts would vote with the liberals on the court and they mentioned it more than a few times in the weeks leading up to the decision. Most conservatives were concerned with Kennedy, but the lame stream media suddenly turned their attention to Roberts and that he would be the swing vote. And sure enough, he was! Coincidence? I think not!
One of the best solution to the deity known as the Supreme Court is to televise every single minute while in session. SCOTUS Tv
Judges are bought all the time. Frank Wilson's impartial judgement of "Not Guilty" on a murder charge, resulting from a Mob hit, cost $10,000.
It's the Chicago Way.
I guess they missed all the protests that surrounded the passage of this bill, the one you say was the will of the people.
I’m following what you are laying out here, but wonder, how in the world does it apply to this grossly unpopular bill?
Of course he was threatened. We’re talking about Obama, a practitioner of take no prisoners Chicago politics schooled by Saul Alinsky. Threatening a Supreme Court justice is all in a day’s work for a thug like Obama. I’m sure he didn’t threaten Roberts directly, but it was handled discreetly by his organized network of reprobates. It is all but certain we will never learn the truth about it.
Evidence is not required. Roberts changed his mind at the last minute and that cannot be explained logically by anyone no matter what is said. SCOTUS spent the first day of oral hearings listening to arguments on the Anti Injunction Act of 1867 and everyone appeared to agree that Obamacare’s penalty was not a tax and therefore the case could continue. Otherwise if it were admitted to be a tax and no one had yet been taxed case should have been thrown out RIGHT ON THE SPOT.
IMHO opinion, your IMO makes no sense.
i saw video posted by joseph Curl of a man in his underwears. At the same time Drudge and Beck were in New York to see who would buy or print a story.They did not want to be left hanging.Is it penis I think people would forgive the Kids.JMO
No evidence of blackmail. What I see is a very weak person in Judge Roberts. Someone not far evolved from the middle school playground. What I mean is that most people want to be liked within their social sphere. That means for Roberts those at the cool cocktail parties in the DC area. He was the nerd wanting to be accepted by the cool kids, the liberal establishment. Just like the nerd who dumps his milk shake on the head of a weaker classmate in order to get the approval of the cool kids, Roberts dumped on us in order to get invited to the latest Tina Brown soiree. If he voted his convictions (not dumping milk shakes on peoples heads) he remains on the outside looking in. Like the child he really is inside, he begs for acceptance from the establishment. However, in the end it never works, they will reject him anyway. It is a rare person who marches to their own drummer. That is why you see a gradual change in most politicians who have been in DC for any length of time. So our lives and our children’s lives are upended because of one immature and stunted person with the psyche of a 13 year old.
very plausible insights, thanks.
His job is to enforce the Constitution of the United States, all of it. If Congress passes a law, any law, that violates the enumerated powers granted to the federal government, then he should do his job and strike it down. That is his job.
Good points.
