The Supreme Court's surprising decision to hear a new challenge to the Affordable Care Act once again has focused attention on Chief Justice John Roberts, who cast the deciding vote in a 2012 decision that saved ObamaCare from being declared unconstitutional.
Many court watchers expect that he will once again be the swing vote in deciding a case crucial to the health-care law, this one involving questions about who qualifies for subsidies under the law. But Roberts' vote in a recent voting rights case suggests he might not step in to save the health law this time.
At issue in King vs. Burwell is a provision of the Affordable Care Act that authorizes subsidies in the form of tax credits for qualifying individuals who buy their insurance from exchanges established by the state. But 34 states did not set up their own health-care exchanges, opting instead, as the law allows, to send state residents to a federal exchange to buy insurance.

“No”
The damage has been done. I am looking forward to the uproar when people see the IRS deduct the Obamacare fee from this year’s tax returns.
>>Will Chief Justice Roberts redeem himself?<<
The damage is done.
He injected a cancer into the USA. It has invaded our entire political and financial systems.
The best we can do now is try to cut the tumors.
LOL GMTA
I don’t have much trust in the SCOTUS anymore. The Federal courts have all become too political. They are packed with activists with agendas. Our Constitution, Bill of Rights and laws mean absolutely nothing to them.
It seems that the most important thing Obama was hiding was then called out and identified by Roberts and nothing happened about that aspect.
I am puzzled.
Last time it was suggested that they’d threatened his kids... what can they twist him with this time?
I heard they can only deduct it from your refund.
Is that true?
Jon Stewart did a great piece on Gruber and his criminal manipulations last week. We’re gonna win this one.
Here’s Saturday Night Live Backing Conservatives Against Obama’s Executive Action ...
We’re winning. Dems are toast.

That’s my understanding. I am waiting for them to put a hold on future tax refunds with penalties if not paid.
EXEMPT "Justice" John Roberts already
violated his Code of Conduct when SCOTUS
was considering Obola's faux and missing credentials,
and the EXEMPT began to linger and fawn
on the Indonesian Communist, ex parte:
Why wouldn’t they threaten his kids again?
Didn’t the NYT fire the opening shot in this?
Some of us don’t get refunds ...

After his contorted twisting of the law and the language in the first case I don't see how he can redeem himself. In view of what he did the last time I think someone should be looking into possible associations, or communications with Jonathon Gruber before he wrote his opinion.
What is Clarence Thomas doing with those commie weasels?
I have not gotten a refund in 20 years. Dont plan on ever getting one again. In fact I pay the penalty in April for not having paid 90% of my tax burden ahead of time. I refuse to give the govt an interest free loan, or money of mine to hold hostage if I don’t behave the way they want.
Let me add an ‘F” to that no. He’s now one of the Odumbo’s minions.
Good for you. But that’s not what a majority of Americans do with their tax bills.
