I’m going to give it a few days before I decide whether to be upset or not.
That’s not a bad approach. I woke my poor husband up at 6:15am with “they struck it down!!” - only to sheepishly return a bit later with “no they didn’t.” At that moment I did think Roberts was as big a dog as most of the posters today...
But you have to let reason in, and ask yourself “why the hell would he have done that?” - and calling him some yellow belly communist, as some here have done, is immature and intellectually shallow. John Roberts is NOT a liberal. He may not be as conservative as some of us hoped/thought, but he has been a very solid conservative vote on the court. You can’t argue with that just because he’s not voted with Scalia 100% of the time. He’s not some social liberal either. There is an explanation out there for why he ruled as he did, we just aren’t sure of it yet.
Ah except the know it all name callers, who in fact surely must have his number already.
And for those pining away for Harriet Miers, refer to the intellectually shallow comment above.
Hi Sandy,
Just read the dissenting opinions and you will know exactly what to think. There are trustworthy Justices that wrote dissenting opinions and they were there and they are brilliant and they tell us what was wrong with this decision and it is vast and deep.
