Not my best effort, I will concede, but I'm tired of all the turd-polishing articles I'm seeing on the forum.

The Obamacare decision was good for conservatives!

That’s okay. We’ll handle it by the clean end.

A shiny turd is still a turd.

Just thought of another "silver lining"!

6. Now that Obamacare is law, the collapse of America should come more quickly. Then we finally get to wear those mohawks and hockey masks and run around the Wasteland looking for 'guzzoline'. Whoo hoo! Thanks John Roberts!

It’s a mixed bag. Not what either side would have wanted. Maybe that was the whole point of the decision.

“The Supreme Court has come firmly down on the side of heavyhanded government dictates. We will be amazingly successful, as a nation, with a Centralized Command Economy. No longer do we need to worry about the fluctuations of the market, the government will control all that for us! We will have the wonderful successes seen in Fascist Italy, the former Soviet Union, and Cuba. Oh, wait.... well, whatever. Thanks, John Roberts!”

Now,now! Mussolini did make the trains run on time. Don’t worry your head over things better determined by your betters. This whole freedom thing is overrated.

I hope you are not surprised. The other turds that were shinned here were three Bush family members (if you don’t count Neil and granddad), McCain, the GOP, and Romney.

The SC is just 9 lawyers in robes. Nothing really special about them except for Thomas, Scalia, and Alito. The rest are all political hacks. Prohibition and some other things have been repealed. There aren’t enough jail cells to hold everyone who will oppose this kangaroo tax. Plus there are other cards in play such as secession. It is not the end but the beginning.

Maybe the turd can’t be polished, but that doesn’t mean I have to wallow in it & smear it all over myself.

What happened, happened. We need to quit looking back and look ahead to what we CAN do. Our founders could have taken one look at the legions of British troops & run the other way. They didn’t .... they took shots, one at a time from behind stone walls, trees, barns, etc. This ‘we’ve been screwed .... waaaahhhhh!’ is getting on my nerves more than what Roberts did on Thursday. Roberts wounded the country and the determination to shoot ourselves in the other foot by surrendering to the Left is ..... un-American. If we lose the country, it will be self-inflicted.

I know the reason for all the silver ling articles. It’s not to convince US that there is a silver lining. It’s to convince Roberts that he’s not completely hated by conservatives so that there’s a way back ‘home.’ If Roberts feels he’s hated by conservatives, he’ll just say “oh screw ‘em” and be like Souter, who doesn’t even pretend to care about the Constitution.

Thanks for this! I, too, have had it with all the $*it shiners.

All true except for the last. Legal scholars are saying that the commerce clause has not been weakened in any way since Roberts comments about the clause in the decision weren’t germane nor required and are therefore merely dicta.

You are way too nice Mr. Laz. I was hoping for something more akin to what Miss Ann Barnhardt had to say on her blog post concerning, "Stupid, Stupid Jackasses - part 1 and part 2".

Now there's someone with balls!

No 'silver' lining here, but the Bronze Turd Award™ goes to C.J. Roberts for his "service" to the Nation...

Bless you, Laz. For a less-than-best, it’s stellar.

My favorite description of Robert’s decision is “It’s like rolling a turd in sugar and calling it a donut.”
