Look, I know folks are going to show up here and say, we can't get rid of justices when we don't like their opinions. To this, I say, BS...what he has done here is nothing but judicial activism on steroids and if we cannot remove these guys for such a blatant abuse of their position; then they are truly there for life...

Thanks.

The ruling must be overturned.

I honestly think he was either bribed or blackmailed.

Either is grounds enough to remove him.

You’re correct, we cannot really impeach the guy. All I want is the chance to grab him by his super-duper black robe, look him square in the eyes, and ask him,”What the H3LL were you thinking?! You just DESTROYED my country and what it stood for!”

Some would say he handed the Republicans control of the House, the Senate, and the Presidency for a generation.

He limited the commerce clause, he labeled obamacare for what it really is: obamatax, and he has given Conservatives a real opportunity to use reconciliation to reverse it since it was reconciliation that gave birth to this monster act. The more I read the SCHMART PEOPLE studies, the more I am starting to realize 1) Roberts is a genius and 2) he works in a process of decades as opposed to what you want: instant gratification.

Just out of curiosity, what impeachable rule or law would he be libel under? Not agreeing or disagreeing, just an inquiring mind that wants to know. ;-)

i suppose it helps to vent your spleen but if judicial activism were an impeachable offense, there would be a whole lot more idiots kicked out of SCOTUS.

Did you see the posts from earlier today, where Roberts was joking about hiding out in a secure place? That doesn’t sound like a man under duress to me. He simply became and activist judge and betrayed his oath all on his own.

Impeach him for what? Expressing his opinion? Following his job description and writing a judicial opinion you disagree with? Impeach him on what basis? Your proposal is so much cow manure. I despise the man’s judicial opinion as much as anyone else, but I refuse to give up my brain to hysteria. Your proposal makes as much sense to me as the teenage girls who get on buses and subways and decide to cut someone up. It makes as much sense as an honor killing. Grow up. Quit throwing tantrums.

Maybe not...this is now a budgetary law, and it concerns budgetary matters, including taxes (like the Bush tax cuts), 51 votes are sufficient to put the law on hold for 10 years.

We can make this happen, can’t we

Good luck with that. You little people in flyover country haven't noticed, but Roberts is the toast of official Washington this weekend. The Compost could barely contain itself today, slobbering on and on about Roberts’ “statesmanship” and how he brought “legitimacy” to the court. The institutions of our undoing in Washington know when they have a new champion on their side, and they mean to keep him. By whatever means necessary.

I said the same thing several times since yesterday. But I didn’t need a vanity to do it. Bravo!

Don’t just single out Roberts. There were 5 bad judgements.

Some issues like this are clearly unconstitutional, and we shouldn't obey anything a court this out of control says. It's not simply an opinion, but an act of tyranny against the people. Not part of our government respects our Constitution, and most blatantly bypass it in every way it can. There is a legal way to change our Constitution, but this way is never bothered with because they know it would get nowhere. We are going to have to just stop obeying our government and corrupt courts, while demanding the freedom we are guaranteed from our Constitution. There is no point to let what are obviously frivolous arguments be decided by a court. We will never get anywhere unless we take control of this situation using everything we can.

It's time for a revolution, and by that I mean it's time we stop obeying the Federal government on such ridiculous issues, and forcing a confrontation with them. It's up to them how far they want to take it. Voting will get us no where when it comes to federal elections. Voting for people who are willing to confront the federal government in state elections are the only thing that matters. Our federal government must be destructed and rebuilt, because it's past the point of being fixed. We can accept living under tyranny, or we can accept doing what must be done to save our nation. Our constitution means nothing, our courts rule on personal political opinion, and even the best of our leaders can't stop this tyranny. We aren't sure we can even defeat Obamacare, and we were in serious trouble before this was even an issue.

It worse than a ruling being wrong - the ruling doesn't even make sense. I am left with the following question - is this or is it not a tax? Roberts makes a ruling inconsistent with the bill as written. He makes a ruling based on a fictional bill.

Roberts should be impeached and removed from office for incompetence and sophistry unbefitting of a SC justice. Obama and Holder should be impeached as well. We all know the dems will prevent anyone from being removed from office. But what is the harm in having hearings and exposing this crap to the masses?

I never understood all the excitement over Roberts when he was nominated anyway. Sam Alito is my favorite justice by far and should have been given the head position of the court as he always follows the Constitution to the letter.
