‘Court is not a legislature’: Roberts rips gay marriage ruling, day after he backed ObamaCare
Fox News ^ | 6/26/15 | staff

A day after Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts sided squarely with the Obama administration on the health care overhaul, the same jurist came out swinging against the court´s ruling legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide. In his dissenting opinion -- which he read from the bench for the first time in his nearly 10 years as chief justice -- Roberts charged Friday that the court had no right to intervene in what should be a democratic debate by the people, at the state level, over same-sex marriage.

Yeah, you’re right he’s a complete hypocrite. At least some of the others are consistent in their thinking. What a shame this guy has turned out to be.

First, Cruz, then Roberts, exhibit betrayal and then
a vacuous attempt at plausible deniability.

Why will NO ONE in DC defend the Constitution?

Why does the GOP regards its own voters at the enemy,
preferring to arm al Qaeda over protecting the Law
and the Constitution and American security?

The USSC is a kangaroo court that has no regard for legal principles, established law or our Constitution. It has become a power wielding political authority that effectively negates the legislative function. They are rogues in robes.

It’s a legislature of the fantastical now, thanks to you, you effin’ limp-wristed, rubber-stamping, paid-off, traitorous scum.

Well, certainly you’ll have to pay in April,
but starving them in the meantime is worth it.

Besides, we should be working to a non-withholding tax system anyway.
People need to know what they’re paying and it should hurt when they do.

**************
The Constitution gets in the way of their powerful ambitions, deal cutting and left wing ideological agenda. They view it as an inconvenient document.

I’ll agree with him that the court overstepped on the Same Sex Marriage case————— but what gave him the right to re-write a statute that he decided was wrong? If today’s decision is bad, they yesterday’s really stinks.

>>>> “This court is not a legislature,”

Roberts has Zero credibility on lecturing others about this.

Not since his ‘Obamacare penalty is a tax, therefore Constitutional’ ruling.
