The fury of the right that will now come against the Court will be far worse than anything the left could have brought.
My thoughts too.
I guess the “fury” of the Right can’t hold a candle to the “fury” of the Left.
I wasn’t clear in my last post. My initial reaction to the idea of John Roberts bending his decision due to fear of the Left’s reaction was, what about fear of the rest of the country’s reaction, or the damage to the country?
The fury of the right that will now come against the Court will be far worse than anything the left could have brought.
Let’s hope so. What the article doesn’t explain, however, is that the left, in Owen’s time, was dominant; the New Deal had majority support. John’s decision inexplicably broke AGAINST the public’s majority opinion. Though both Robertses disgraced the bench, Owen Roberts had the excuse that Congress & the Pres. were accurately representing the will of the people. John Roberts’ excuse seems to be nothing more than a bid for media praise.
The Left, as always, was ready to shut down cities.
I do not discount the possibility of word getting to Roberts that voting to shoot down Obamacare could be hazardous to his family's health.
The Fury of the Right? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahah! Where the Hell and how the hell is that Invisible Nonexistent manisfestation going to make itself visible? The so called Right is Led By Mitt Romney,enough said

You are quite wrong about that.
The political war in this country is being fought by the Left at the polling places and in the streets. Ever since Florida 2000, it has been clear that the Left wanted an SA, and what they have been able to achieve along this lines has been remarkable.
Try to go back ten days and imagine that the court had ruled 5-4 against Obamacare. What do you think would have happened the next day to Roberts, and his family? In the media? On the talk shows? On the shoutfests? In front of their homes?
And their Emmanuel Goldstein, Clarence Thomas? What would have happened to him?
The right has NOTHING (yet) to compare to the muscle the Left can bring out, and you know what?
Sheeple respect a leader who knows how to wield power. This has been seen over and over again since the idiotic idea of choosing leaders by direct popular election got started.
Obama's audacity is actually going to HELP him in the Fall, running against a mild-mannered manager/CEO type.
Dangerous, dangerous times.
