It has been stated on this thread that Chief Justice Roberts is another blemish on the record of President George Bush. I would like to address that point.

President Bush was not someone I could support a good portion of the time. I have railed on him here many times over the years.

When it comes to appointments to the court, they can look pretty good when they are made and voted upon. Years later, they stand a good chance of being viewed quite differently.

When President Reagan appointed Sandra Day O’Conner, it’s my understanding she didn’t look bad. Today we consider her to be quite a liberal SCOTUS Justice.

When Roberts was approved, we were all quite happy about it. He seemed like a good choice. Now we’re aware that at least with regard to this Obamacare ruling, he’s Dufus Maximus.

I don’t think we should blame President Bush for this anymore than we should blame ourselves, since we were in favor of Robert’s appointment.

This sucks, but Chief Justice Roberts should be the focus.

This is one instance where I’m not going to take Bush to task.

I thought Roberts was a good selection. I never saw him screwing a ruling this badly.

And yes, he really f’d up on this one. His ruling was an embarrassment to himself. It was an embarrassment to the court. It was an embarrassment to the nation.

Citizens have every right to be furious about this.

I researched Roberts, and read a biography on him. Nothing in his past would indicate how he would vote on AZ and Obamacare. So why did Roberts go crazy?
