Roberts delivers for president who had opposed him

As a junior senator, Barack Obama voted against John Roberts' nomination to the Supreme Court, fearing he would favor the powerful over the weak.

For Conservatives it was a double whammy;
Knowing that constitutional protections against intrusive government are gone.
And that a Republican nominee had now turned and done this to them.

Roberts was a weak mind who can never again be trusted.

That should be a barf alert. The Supremes just destroyed their reputation for impartiality.

There must be something in the DC water that moves DC denizens leftward.

And Roberts blew the swearing-in ceremony, which had to be repeated inside the White House with no photos, video, audio, and only two witnesses.

Isn’t it interesting that the lib justices stay lib to their dying day, while we frequently get stuck with squishy types like Souter, Kennedy and Roberts?

"Barack Obama voted against John Roberts' nomination to the Supreme Court, fearing he would favor the powerful over the weak."

So, it turns out that Obama was right.

Roberts has favored the powerful over the weak.

Thanks to John Roberts the mighty federal government gets to run roughshod over the working taxpayer once again.
