Will John Roberts be remembered in history the same as Benedict Arnold?

Posted on 06/28/2012 7:39:44 AM PDT by Sybeck1

When some is called a Benedict Arnold he is deemed a traitor. Will being called a John Roberts go to mean the same?

“Let’s hope nothing happens to him while O is still in office.
Why? What’s the difference?”

Because Obama probably has another relatively-young, fat ugly lesbian ready to appoint.

Reagan got snookered by Sandra Day O’Connor and now it looks like Dubya got snookered by Roberts.

Who will vote exactly the same way Roberts would.

I concur with that. Roberts is a straight up peice of crap, at least Arnold had personal courage at one time.

Point taken.
yes, it was a 5-4 on the mandate

We now need a President Romney, to grant a WAIVER to every State and Every taxpayer!

Sorry for the multiple posts; I was getting a “server overloaded” message each time I submitted.

Harry Blackmun would be a closer comparison.

In the past you’ve talked about being in the legal field and you think it is OK for a foreigner to have a kid here become president. Now you write that you are a health insurance agent and what Roberts did is a blessing. What position do you hold with the GOP-E because that is the same crap talking point they spit out on the last decision.

And are you crazy? Nothing has been gutted. Obama will approach this as if everything can continue just as he planned it. What is worse, Romney will do exactly the same. After all, he is the father of Obamacare. None of either socialist party wants to change this.

Well the GOP needs to know that people in this country don’t like socialists ruling over them. We have no longer have protection in any body of govt. We live in the United Socialist States now. Five of the nine Oligarchs have spoken. Our republic is dead.

With the end of the Bush tax cuts coming up and the beginning of the teeth of Obama/Romneycare just getting started, everyone is going to need a second job just to pay the taxes. But guess what? There won’t be enough jobs left out there for that to happen. The only industry that is a guaranteed growth industry is tax accounting. So I guess I should be glad. But I’m not.

Impeachment by the House with a trial by the Senate.

In an interesting twist, the Constitution provides that the Chief Justice presides over the trial. Presumably any impeached CJ would recuse him/herself, but who would instead preside is an interesting question for the legal scholars.

You need to develop a legal mind.

I NEVER said I liked this ruling. I do not like it. However, I must deal with it and I must look to the advantages and disadvantages, personally, politically and economically, on this ruling.

There is a tomorrow. We must continue to fight our battles and we must be realistic if we really want to win.

I have no patience for those who throw temper tantrums and make everything personal and petty.

You are making a personal attack against me, but the fact is, the majority of Conservative opinion is on my side, on the Natural Born Citizen issue, and you are only bringing that up now, to attack me on this ruling.

Again, I wish Roberts had voted to strike down the mandate entirely.

I am relieved that Roberts and the majority DID say that the Commerce Clause did not authorize the mandate.

In fact, it was UNANIMOUS that the Commerce Clause did not authorize the mandate.

“Do not place much confidence in weak and mortal man, helpful and friendly though he be; and do not grieve too much if he sometimes opposes and contradicts you. Those who are with us today may be against us tomorrow, and vice versa, for men change with the wind. Place all your trust in God; let Him be your fear and your love. He will answer for you; He will do what is best for you.”

His two ADOPTED children are from Ireland VIA LATIN AMERICA.....makes one wonder if all was legal and if he was being BLACKMAILED. NOTHING else makes sense.

That makes this even MORE (if possible) distressing -- there were the votes we needed and instead of joining the 4 - Roberts sides with the left! A sad, sad day for our country.

Yes, and because it's now a "tax" a good number of republicans will stand their with their hands out, rather than mounting any meaningful opposition to tyranny.
