Tyrell is being uncharacteristically stupid.
Roberts did nothing to enhance his credibility or the Court’s by rendering an incoherent decision.
All of the good things that that Tyrell describes could have just as easily come about from a 5-4 decision the other way, except minus the ObamaCare.
I have described this as going for the suicide squeeze in baseball instead of a home run.
Exactly! Especially considering his third point.
“Thirdly, the Congress can now tax us for not doing something, but this power is not nearly so dangerous ....”
Tell me again, how teh “I WON” president and “We have to pass it to read it” Pelosi cheat, lie and bribe the whole time to get the bill passed against the consent of majority citizens?
And Mr. Tyrrell think they will somehow be more restrained in the future?
