It was a strange thing for Roberts to do, because he's always been known as a strong federalist. This goes against everything he's ever believed. Because of that, people think there must be something wonderful behind it. Otherwise, why would he do it? A federalist would never advocate the government making our bodies - right down to the cellular level - the property of the state.

All I know right now is this. He sold us out. He sold the country out. I hope he proves me wrong someday.

Roberts is a liberal. The Arizona case and the Roberts Tax/medical law case proves. This is not a conservative court. This is a liberal activist court run by a liberal justice. We need to get used to that idea. He is not a conservative.

Personally, im beginning to wonder if those Roberts being gay rumors might be true. He would have been wide open to blackmail. Remember he was in the GHW Bush administration. Hillary would have had his FBI file.
This would also explain his Pro Bono work to help overturn the Colorado law excluding gays from protected minority status. It would help explain him upholding the DC gay marriage law.

He might turn out to have been blackmailed.

Yes at first glance you think, wow this stinks of the same type corruption we see coming from the white house.

Enter Occam's Razor. The most simple explanation is the correct one. The simplest answer was he was coerced, and that I do believe is the answer we don't want to accept. Why is it that we think the supreme court is immune to the corruption we see in congress and the rest of government? Well we just found out it's not.
