Imagine what's going thru Chief Justice Roberts' mind

about now...

The Court is going to become the subject of public protest, vilification, accusations of harboring a drunken criminal sex abuser who should be on the list of offenders.

Everywhere the right-leaning justices go, people will scream and shout and disrupt.

We are in a Civil War and the battles will be fought in public spaces like restaurants, hotels, ballparks, and the like.

He cannot be pleased about this.

I thought you hated Roberts? Why the concern now?

One usually needs be formally accused and convicted of a crime before one is a criminal.

Yawn ..... Roberts is probably planning to arrange the seating chart so RBG is seated between Kavanaugh and Gorsuch.

You have to wonder if SCOTUS judges hold grudges.


I hope to hell they do.

   If I remember right after all the crap Clarence Thomas went through, when he was finally confirmed he said "I'm going to be here a long time"

Whereas Democrats can be caught standing over the body with a smoking gun and video tape of the crime and the cries will still be "Due Process! Innocent until proven guilty!"

Who gave the marching orders to follow and harass people who are of a different political persuasion than your own?  Who thinks it is ok to follow and harass people who are of a different political persuasion than your own?

I stand corrected.

Thank you, sir, and Rover.  I was just a little too quick.

62. However, he's now going to be the swing vote

and will be until one from one side gets replaced with one from the other. So he pretty much decides all the cases, possibly for a decade.

Swing vote?  That term is going to become obsolete.  All your courts are belong to us now.

As I told my wife, this is what the Liberal Dems are afraid of. NOT Roe V Wade.

At least they MAY require more "evidence" from democrats now.  :-)

I don't anticipate the kind of perfection DUpipo fear, but there is a 5-4 majority of justices inclined to read the Constitution and laws as they are rather than what the justices imagine they should be. It also sets up a situation where the death or retirement of a "Living Constitution" Prog would make blocking a Trump pick much less meaningful than blocking Kavanaugh would have been.

One other possible implication is the types of cases accepted by the Court.  They may be more inclined to accept 2A cases; or those cases involving "deeply held religious beliefs" such as Masterpiece Cakes or Little Sisters of the Poor.
