Roberts said on the day before Thanksgiving that an “independent judiciary is something we should all be thankful for.”

Wtodd is too short-sighted to realize the pendulum always swings back.

So you have Clarence Thomas openly criticizing and calling out the ninth circuit this year publicly and Roberts makes this comment?


Get fricked Roberts.

Boosiebadazz is too shortsighted to see that Wtodd’s point of pointing out bias isn’t threatening the independence of the judiciary or whatever platitude Roberts was trying to convey

If we nakedly politicize the Court and it becomes accepted for judges to disregard the law and vote the way their politician nominators prefer, don’t be surprised to wake up one day to an unabashedly liberal, SJW Court literally making it up as we go.

Roberts is a bitch.

frick him. If you are too blind to see that there are a shitload of judges who ignore the law and rule as activists, then you're being willfully ignorant.

Ask Harry Reid how changing the rules when you’re in power turns out when you’re suddenly out of power.

Roberts’ Obamacare decision was vindicated by (and in some ways lead to) the Republican takeover in 2016. The mandate was gutted legislatively, just as it was enacted.

The Obamacare decision is proof of _____________ (insert POTUS name) judges. Roberts pole vaulted over his authority buy legislating from the bench and rewriting a law.

The Obamacare decision also opened the door for other SJW laws.....see gay marriage.

Roberts is a disgrace.

The Chief Justice of the United States is a virtue-signaling son of a bitch.
