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.
Great point. Leaves pondering that Roberts has been a closet leftist not completely in loony tune land.
I dunno, there seem to be quite a number of Roberts Republicans, even here on FR.
