EXCLUSIVE: U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts Considering Stepping Down 
 Edited on Thu Mar-04-10 01:08 PM by RamboLiberal
John Roberts, Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, is seriously considering stepping down from the nation’s highest court for personal reasons, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.

Roberts, known for his conservative judicial philosophy, has served on the Supreme Court since 2005, having been nominated by President George W. Bush after the death of former Chief William Rehnquist.

RadarOnline.com has been told that Roberts, 55, could announce his decision at any time.

The decision paves the way for President Barack Obama to make his second appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court following his first, Sonia Sotomayor.

Roberts is a Patriot! No way he would screw the country like that. Barring some devastating family problems, I just ain't gonna believe it!

Oh come now!  Our entire existence depends on Justice Roberts?  It all comes down to one man?  235 years later, Justice Roberts is the make or break?  Nah.  Hold on for reality!!!  

Besides, this is an internet dream-scape designed to give impotent liberals the erections they need.   Oboma has failed....so we have to seek another dream.....

I'll bet Lord Zero already has a list of nominees for the Court.

I dunno Undies, just one judge and it could sway the court more liberal than it's been in 50 years! In my opinion that would be a disaster!

Sorry DUmmies, Now it reads NOT stepping down.

I'm sure he does; every president does. And the names on it will be a shock to the mentally-challenged folks who said there would be no difference between him and McCain. This is the main way a one-term president can change the country for generations.

Well, that's true, but think about it.  When has the USA not survived?  Fifty years ago, did our nation depend on one choice?  One Man?  Did we survive?

Sure, but this is the first time in 250 years we had a political party and a president trying to destroy it. At some point, if they keep it up, we will be facing the fall of the Roman Empire scenario.
