That’s undoubtedly what Roberts is telling the nation: Your job, not mine.

I respect Krauthammer's mind, but here he's dead wrong. As Scalia, Thomas, Alito and even Kennedy knew, this is exactly the job the Supreme Court exists to do - ruling on the Constitutionality of laws passed by Congress and striking down those which are not in conformance with the US Constitution. Roberts passed on that responsibility and chose to bend his views and the US Constitution like pretzels to find a way to keep this gross imposition on individual freedoms alive. If Roberts doesn't consider this his job, he should never have accepted the nomination.

Well said sir. I really hate the attempt to turn defeat into victory.

“I respect Krauthammer’s mind,”

Until about a year ago, I respected his mind about 90% of the time. Now... not so much. He’s been wrong (unconservative) on several issues lately. To hear him pompously pontificate ... blah blah blah ... assuming we all think he’s wonderful makes me nauseous.
