We shall see, my prediction remains the same, they will not overturn it.
Of course the correct thing for Roberts to have done is keep his mouth shut on the Kagan issue.
So quick to turn your back on great men....what a shame.

That might be a bit rash — at this point all Roberts has done is stand up for his colleagues. It’s too early for him to opine about who should or should not stand down. If anything, perhaps he should have said nothing about it at all.
He is probably smart enough to know that Kagan and Thomas will likely take opposite sides of the Obamacare issue, so they will cancel each other out.
I am optimistically predicting that the court will overturn obamacare 5 to 4 with Kennedy being the tie-breaker (as usual).
oyez.org is a good resource for finding full opinions and even audio of the oral arguments.
“Great” men are known for great deeds. What exactly has Roberts done to be considered great? Certainly not challenging 0bama.
I disagree. I won’t waste my time on educating anyone for that matter, especially someone that really is unfamiliar with the rather huge effect Roberts has had on the philosophical direction of the court. I’m sick of ‘conservatives’ who eat their own...as my tagline repeats...no better than Obama.
I won’t waste any time either with someone who is an a$$I kisser, but you can kiss mine too.
‘sons of liberty’ always give up, apparently. During the revolution they were always very close to losing and not being financed...often failing greatly. It’s great we didn’t have people like you...who turned their back on it.
How would an ahold from the land of fruits and nuts know ANYTHING
Liberty? Kiss my ass and if I ever cross paths with you, I’ll enjoy kicking yours, BTW is the fag George Michael your “life partner”?
It is my personal opinion that the SC is going to find obamacare “Constitutional”. What rationale they will use ti come ti that conclusion is beyond me.
My opinion also. History will later show their ruling to the the practical end to the "Great Experiment", The American Republic. Of course it is very possible that contemporary events will be rewritten and refabricated by the left, as it has done with our previous history. The same way the Soviets erased deposed party officials from history.
The Left wins again. By any reasonable jurisprudence Kagan should have recused on Obamacare but the Left cannot have it. Hence the massive Clarence! Thomas! Must! Recuse! campaign which had no serious purpose except to establish a rough equivalence between Thomas and Kagan on this issue. Which apparently worked.
