I think Roberts is gonna turn on conservatism. It’s a pattern. sigh
I have said from the beginning that they will not overturn Ocare, if the do then they have cost the taxpayer several hundred billion dollars for no reason.
They are implementing the plan as fast as they can, and there will be no undoing it. All in the progressive plan. Politicians have been letting the court take the blame for their progressive agenda for decades, we should be used to it.
Well it’s too early to say that Roberts will turn liberal, or ‘evolve’ as the champions of judicial activism like to say about Republican’s long list of mistaken Sup Court picks. So far he has voted the right way on pretty much everything, including high profile Second Amendment and partial-birth abortion cases.
This sounds more like a case of the top judge defending his club. That may be rather innocent and without much consequence, or it may indicate that while conservative in his jurisprudence, he nonetheless sees the judiciary as somehow superior to the other branches, as if they are on an elevated plain. So we can probably be sure that if for example the idea and practice of judicial supremacy is ever challenged under his watch, he will defend it vigorously. And on that, I would guess the same would be true of the other 3 good judges. Part of the reason why judges like Scalia, Roberts, Thomas, and Alito are superior to the 4 leftwing usurpers and the unpredictable (in a bad way) Kennedy is that they can restrain themselves. They don’t seek to rule the country and impose their beliefs from the bench. But this restraint is voluntary...I have no doubt that all four of the good judges firmly believe that the Sup Court does properly have the final word on all things Constitutional, and that their decisions MUST be obeyed.
Gingrich is dreadful, but I do applaud him for saying he would ignore particularly awful Sup Court decisions. That is the only way that the Constitutionally unsound and unfounded practice of judicial supremacy will ever be successfully challenged. Therefore it will probably never be successfully challenged.
