I am for any action that can slow or stop this. That said, I think Roberts acted out of fear or intimidation to create that ruling. Like most in Washington the Supremes live in the bubble and he either fell to public or private pressures that the court should avoid political decisions. In other words, he abandoned his personal beliefs and changed his vote for reasons outside the constitution. Did he leave open opportunity for other challenges? Possibly, but i don’t see his decision as any clever attempt to help constitutional conservatives. He had a chance to do that and specifically decided not to. Allowing Obamacare to exist in whole because it is a tax...a tax levied if one does not buy a product of the govenrment’s choosing...is a horrible precident to set. An historically bad decision on his behalf.
I wonder if his rope-a-dope act was related to his photo being taken with a briefcase going into the Vatican Bank on Malta. I think this is what was shown on the internet. At least somewhere in the files of the net there is a photo.
