We have to be careful of the exact measures used to correct this situation.

Once we use them, we know the Left will when they get the chance.

We wouldn’t have liked it if Obama came in and dismissed the court. We simply can’t do that.

What we could do is build a case against Roberts incompetence, based on his actions to in effect legislate from the bench. He is open to review on that.

The Leftists on the court could be too.

What opens Roberts up, is his actions related to Obamacare where he simply changed legislation by judicial edict.

You can’t legally do that. He’s unfit to remain in his position. That needs to be based on the legality of what he did.

Somebody on the court is talking to the white house or they wouldn’t have been so clearly prepared for the ruling.

Don’t worry. This situation will not be corrected without separation of the two Americas or the outright subjection of one of them, so there will be no issue of what the other side might pull. America has ceased to exist as a unified nation in anything but the forms of commerce.

It'll never happen. 'Too many homies amongst Republicans.

Why single out Roberts ? Everyone on the court except Thomas seems to think their job is to legislate or obfuscate

“We wouldn’t have liked it if Obama came in and dismissed the court. We simply can’t do that.”

FDR did it. He promised to stack the deck if they didn’t do as he demanded.

That would require a United States Senate with stones. I agree with your premise but I don't sense Mitch McConnell having the fortitude to try it.

I wouldn’t have minded. Remember nowhere in the Constitution is the S. Ct. given the power to overturn legislation, state or federal. It basically stole that power in Marbury v. Madison.

With all due respect I think your argument borders on the type of argument that Trey Gowdy gave for why we shouldn’t impeach Obama, because Biden would be worse. Don’t get me wrong, I understand the need to look ahead and examine the possible consequences of a particular action, but once war has broken out, the most important thing is to defeat the enemy. In war, and we are in a war, you don’t avoid bombing the sh*t out of the enemy because he might get mad at you and fire back. He’s already firing at you. This over obsession with what might occur if we start fighting back, leads to paralysis and inaction.

You don’t start with roberts.... You start with the stupid obammy nominees. And you kick out Ginsberg just because.... Roberts will come around if you do that.
