But Roberts pays attention to media coverage. As Chief Justice, he is keenly aware of his leadership role on the Court, and he also is sensitive to how the Court is perceived by the public.
There were countless news articles in May warning of damage to the Court - and to Roberts' reputation - if the Court were to strike down the mandate. Leading politicians, including the President himself, had expressed confidence the mandate would be upheld.

Why threaten Roberts though? Why not Kennedy, the more likely (before then) to go left?

It was a moment of truth for John Roberts, a longtime pillar of the Washington legal establishment, a member of the ultra-posh Chevy Chase Club, and someone who acquaintances say cares deeply about how he is portrayed in the press.

elections have consequences.
bush passed mccain feingold believing it to be unconstitutional, hoping the SCOTUS would bail him out. The SCOTUS is becoming the whiping boy to take pressure off politicians to do the right thing. Not the SCOTUS's job. If you don't like Roe v. Wade, you shouldn't have a problem with what Robert's did. If the law can be passed democratically, it can be repealed democratically. The fact is congress easily has the power to pass a law that states the medicare is extended to all people living in america. It lacks the political capital or public will to do so. You want a supreme court to just rule, "all americans have the right to free universal health coverage paid for by the public treasury?" quit bitching about the court, start fighting politically. bunch of slack jawed faggots around here. |

Sotamayor and Kegan immediately informed Team Obama (Valerie Jarrett & her worker's party handler) that the socialist NHS had been defeated by SCOTUS. Remember, they were openly laughing at Obama's attorney during the oral arguments, as broadcast on radio for the whole Nation to hear.
This was when Team Obama was switching back and forth on calling the Law a Tax, versus not a Tax. Do you think it's coincidence that Roberts made sure it was called a Tax in his written decision? Where do you suppose the pressure came from? And why was Elena Kagan allowed to even include herself on this vote, since she helped advise the WH on the fricken thing? It's like FDR all over again. Racist justices appointed to rubber-stamp an international worker's party pile of oppressive, anti-Ameican crap, and even that didn't work, so they strong-armed Roberts somehow. Isn't Roberts the one who swore Obama in, but the ceremony didn't follow protocol, so they assured us it was done in the WH out of view? |

The court is corrupt.
The fed govt has the power to tax. Nowhere in the Constitution does it have the power to force the individual to buy a product or service or tax the individual for not doing something that is mandted. The collection of income tax required an amendment to the constitution, the collection of tax as a condition of not buying a private product from a private company does not? The Constitution is dead. |

You don't have to coerce the willing. I can't help but think he was waiting for something his whole career. IMO, now that he has unmasked, he will be a reliable vote for the left side of the aisle. Scary to think of that from here on out, the court may very well be shifted to the left. Something to think about for any future 2A cases that make their way to the SCOTUS. Also downright frightening to think that Zero (if he gets a second term, will be able to really stack the court). |

Question, for anyone who might know:
Is it even possible for a Supreme Court justice to reverse his decision retroactively? If not, under what provision of the law do you make that determination? I see that the activities of the Supreme Court seem to be mostly at their own discretion. Within their authority to determine the Constitutionality of existing laws, they seem to have great latitude to do things as they please. With this in mind, can a justice change his mind after the fact and thus change the decision? |
