2. You know, if Obama's gonna publicly rassle with someone on any particular issue, I'm
glad it's this one. There is no way the Supreme Court can hold their heads up over this decision. No way in hell.

5. "Should Chief Justice Roberts be impeached for treason?!"
I'll hold my breath until Glenn Beck runs that headline.

8. Enduring an uncomfortable spotlight is the least this jackass should have to deal with
I'd be concerned along with him if he was actually ARRESTED for decisions political leaders disagree with.
A tongue-lashing? deal with it crybaby.

12. I can't help but wonder if his wife was sitting in the back of the room...

14. Roberts is a very upset widdle lawyer
He will be a short timer. He wants out. He did take a staggering pay cut at a very early age to take the gig, and those who put much work into being able to make that huge money tend to want to make it for a time before they go play old man games. He sees it as a burden, more than an honor. And the way he does the job, it is a burden to us all as well.
He is the only Supreme I have ever heard speak openly about his pay packet. Few public officials whine about that in front of the help, but Johnny Bobby does...

15. He has complained in the past about judicial pay--
hopefully, the right paycheck lures him off the bench.
