He was threatened.
Some people just hate Americans and America although they can’t explain why.
Traitor. Pure. And. Simple.
Obama, the coverup king, has had his evil regime dig up some dirt on Roberts. They may have a photo of him french kissing a poodle.

the Affordable Care Act has 300+ pages detailing how the US goverment will control and regulate the industry as well as force participation of the citizens in the federal governments regulation of what is a wide range of PUBLIC entities.
The governement regulation and control of public entities IN THIS MANNER is not authorized under the general welfare clause or the interstate commerce clause and certainly does not fit the enumerated powers.
I blame the five "justices" who did not do their job of interpreting constitutionality, but instead twisted a morsel of fabricated fact (that it is a tax contrary to what the content of the bill details) in order to justify their personal paradigm of socialism.
Even if it is in fact a tax is not their business, taxation is certainly at the discretion of congress. the issue in question was this ; does congress have the authority to regulate public entities and force the people to fund their imposition ?
it is exactly the same as if they passed "the Affordable Car Act", forcing a tax in order to make you buy a car, with 300 pages detailing how they will control each car company and how they will decide what car you will have , the fact that it is funded by a tax does NOT address the constitutionality of the act but is merly a deflection and dereliction of the duties of a cheif justice
?
Time for Impeachment
The reporter on the Fox News panel from the Washington Post says “Roberts plays chess while everybody else plays checkers.” He notes that Roberts got 2 of the liberals to go along with him against Medicaid expansion and is reaping what amounts to “strange new respect” from the left as a “reasonable guy.” He claims that sets him up to be able to return to the conservative side in upcoming votes next year on affirmative action and some provisions of the voting rights act. Plus , it appears to me the left recognizes he really handed them a hot potato with the “taxation with misrepresentation” decision. Chrissy Mathews panel of experts voted 8-4 that Romney would be wise to downplay Obamacare , so that tells you Romney should do the opposite. So even if unintentional, Roberts is going to help the Republicans re-take the Senate and the White House.
This is one of the most alarming things to happen in a long damned time. And I know every DAY there’s another assault on our liberty but this is really beyond anything.
...When Obama heard the ORIGINAL mis-reporting on CNN that it was overturned- he was “puzzled and surprised”....
...Roberts was red-eyed and upset while reading the ruling...
Seriously- what the HELL went on here?
WOW.....this dude’s “legacy” is over, IMO. THe Supreme Court doesn’t leak like this normally. If his eyes were red and he seemed unhappy when he read his opinion on Thursday morning, it was likely because he knew the other conservative justices were done with him.
So Justice Kennedy was the one trying to get Roberts to see straight? Where were Alito, Scalia and Thomas?
“It is not known why Roberts changed his view on the mandate and decided to uphold the law”
He found a horses head in his bed.
I guess we know where he would stand on eligibility.
Another lawsuit needs to be brought before the Supreme Court: Can the federal government tax a citizen for inactivity while giving waivers to others for the same inactivity?
