FARMINGTON, Pa. (AP) — U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts is joking that he’ll be spending some time in “an impregnable fortress”

Roberts declined to answer a question about the landmark opinion issued Thursday. But he says he hopes the court will be remembered for “protecting equal justice under the law.”

The only advantage I see to this decision (except that it should have been all thrown out), is that the passage of a bill to remove the tax does not need a 60 vote super-majority to pass, and merely a 51% vote is all that is needed. Is that correct?

Wise decision, funny boy.

Seriously, when I heard this decision come out yesterday, I thought, he better have some security. There will be some angry people out there and nothing should happen to one of our justices.
