“Who owns Roberts?”

The Liberals and especially the democratic party.

His legacy is actually worse than Obama.
Obama pissed me off more, but Bush is worse.
Also, Bush begat Obama.

Everything you need to know about Roberts in one ruling.
We were set-up for failure by the RINO establishment.

But remember now Muslims can hand out religious stuff too. I might have voted no too.


That is the price of FREEDOM OF RELIGION.

The state or organization can do what it wants, after several years when it gets to the Supreme Court steps, modify its policy, in Roberts view it is then moot. The next week, the state or organization modifies it back, maybe with a slight change, and then the plaintiff has to sue again.

I know how the band felt and the old men at the bar felt on the Titanic.
= = =

I was going to ask, ‘Was there a Chapel on the Titanic?’, but remembered the band’s (alleged)last song, “Nearer, My God, to Thee”.

Maybe I should listen to it. Not a bad song to have stuck in my head, perhaps.

Although he could probably be defended for dissenting on the grounds that the case was moot - the plaintiff having graduated - it was more likely an act of cowardice, meant to shield him from the Chicago Way moves on the left and the scrutiny on the right. We’re entitled to a bit of courage in our SCOTUS critters.

You can have whatever preference you want, but a supreme court justice is supposed to base his opinions on the Constitution, which is very clear about freedom of speech and freedom of religion.

Souter part II. Roberts is now left of Kagan and Sotomayor.

Roberts, however, in his first solo dissent, wrote that the court was acting as “a moot court” in deciding this case and their ruling.

The plaintiff is seeking damages for past harm, not just relief, therefore the case is not moot. One would thing that the Chief Justice of the U.S. Supreme Court would understand this.

I’m no fan of Roberts, and actually disagree quite strongly with him about his reasoning in this case. However, if you actually read his dissent it’s really nothing more than an argument about standing, not about the merits of the case. Even the opinion, authored by Thomas was really just a procedural one that said the individuals do, in fact, have standing to sue.

Dominating, enslaving or killing Infidels is required of Muslims. Islam should be declared to be not a religion but a cult.

Harriet Miers was nominated for the seat subsequently taken by Samuel Alito.

I bet she would have been much worse than Justice Alito because that’s the person who was nominated after her nomination was withdrawn.
