[the “ Ripeness” issue exists and a violation of the Constitutional requirements for holding office in fact exist]
Hope you’re right.
I hadn’t plannned on watching the holy installation but
I may do so just to see Roberts do the vows with a
straight face.
This does have potential for a set-up/sting but I have yet
to see congressmen with balls enought to follow through.

The issue is now for the moment out of the hands of congress. Generally, lawyers, which is Justice Roberts background, are a cold bunch that can take either side of an issue without showing any emotion other than that necessary for the client. He will give the oath of office with a straight face and then 3 days later go to conference unbiased on the issue.
