I think, in the end, Roberts will be exonerated.

I think you're waaaaaaay wrong.

He went all in with OUR political capital and he's got a 5 high as his poker hand.

Govt health care is now the law of the land and most of it is now "As the Secretary shall direct." That's why people keep saying that we don't know what's in this bill.

Do you have ANY idea what happened yesterday? The administration said this is not a tax. It's a penalty. They said that 18 times in their written arguments before the court. 4 dissenting justices said it's not a tax. The only one who said it is a tax is Roberts. The administration is forcing everyone to buy an insurance product. The Insurance Companies LOOOOOVE this law. They don't even have to advertise anymore, everyone now MUST have a medical insurance policy or the govt will sic the IRS on our asses.

It's clearly a violation of the Commerce Clause of the Constitution, but he ignored that and said it's a tax. He didn't rule on the law's constitutionality, he changed the meaning of the law.

That's whats known as judicial activism.

To the left the end always justifies the means.
We forever fight them the hard way - let them freely create a lop-sided playing field because for us the end can never justify the means. We watched helplessly as they usurp the presidency, steal the elections, shove obozocare down our throats, mock us for not being able to stop their lawlessness.......
Isn’t it time to level the playing field?
If CJ Roberts was indeed diabolically (yet observing the constitution) allowing obozocare stand as a tax issue thus opening the doors for us to more easily repeal it, or shocking us into voting out obozo and the bums, we should be glad that we finally are in the offense, instead of always stuck in the defense mode.
There is nothing wrong with diabolically working within the constitutional framework to surround them in order to achieve our goals.
When doing the obvious (a simple ruling that obozocare is unconstitutional) will hand them the victory, wouldn’t you do the less obvious to snatch victory from them?
We all know obozo will simply ignore the supreme if they rule obozocare unconstitutional and they will fight even harder, blaming the supreme while rallying their obots to another election victory.

The end - removing obozo, obozocare and the dems
The means - less obvious but still within the bounds of the constitution, such as -
***exposing their lies (it is a TAX!)
*** fanning the fire to vote them out (must remove obozo to remove obozocare!),
*** forcing them into defense while giving them a false sense of ‘victory’.

In an ideal world, the supreme will do the obvious.
This not an ideal world! It is a matter of survival. Wouldn’t you do things to survive?

If CJ Roberts had been coerced/threatened into a ruling for obozocare, his ruling has accomplished 2 things at once - hand them a false victory, and, save his own skin while dealing them a gigantic blow!

Embrace the winning strategy!
Know your enemies. Do not fight blindly!
