Have Obama's Supreme Court Justice pick become the new Chief Justice.  :lmao: :lmao:

Yeah, that'll work.

Want to see Republicans really scream? Dump Roberts as Chief Justice
   
When the President makes his pick for the next Supreme Court appointment he should appoint the person to be the Chief Justice. Screw Roberts, dump him. Roberts may be a Supreme Court Justice for life, but I don't recall there being any guarantee he will always be the Chief Justice.

And we're off to the stupid races!

1. Could he do that? Do you know if there's precedent? I like it! nt

Of course you do, babbling primitive. You have no knowledge of how the system works.

22. nothing about it in the constitution is there?
   
I have been thinking maybe it was time to try court packing again - in the interest of diversity (eg half women, 20% hispanic etc)

Because it worked so well the last time...  :thatsright:

36. HE hold the office of Chief Justice of the United States
   
There are eight others who hold offices of Associate Justice.

He holds his office during good behaviour.

That's for life unless Congress determines he is not demonstrating good behaviour through the impeachment process.

He's there for life. He can only be removed from the Chief Justice office via impeachment, resignation, or death.

The Did We? primitive comes out swinging the clue bat. And of course, that's a losing prospect when the DUmmies are involved.

10. I'm not either but the Constitution, Article III, is silent on it.

37. Chief Justice is his OFFICE
   
You're being purposefully obtuse just because the constitution proves you WRONG!

14. Only the Congress can remove him
   
He has to be impeached by a majority of the House and convicted by a 2/3 majority of the Senate.

That's the only way to remove him from his office.

Man the Did We? primitive just keeps trying to drive reality into stone heads.

8. Can the President do that? I don't know very much about the Supreme
   
Court (shame on me), but I guess I assumed that once that title was bestowed, that was for life as well. I must say that would be sweet, especially after the embarrassing SOTU incident with Roberts.

Yeah, Obambi childishly calling out the Supremes for a decision he disapproved of (a first, by the way) was very embarrassing to the Smartest Human Being Everâ„¢.

52. It can't be done
   
Although your reasoning as nothing to do with it. Actually the current majority on the Court has shown little regard for comity or precedent. My guess is that if there was a liberal CJ Fat Tony and the boys would be all for replacing him or her with one of their own. And you are wrong on another count as well. If it could be done and the Republicans were in the majority, they would replace a liberal CJ before you could say Dred Scott. You have apparently been in a coma for 20 or 30 years.

Well alrighty then. And sometimes precedent is wrong. See Dred Scott which you cited. Or Plessy v. Ferguson. Good thing we didn't follow precedent there, huh?

I really hope the justices are strapped to the gills under those robes. Some leftist is going to try the obvious "solution" to the problem.

Now... why again am I supposed to take them seriously when they cry about unwarrented attacks on Me Shell and other Dem family members?   :confused:

Unfortunately with DC's gun laws they are still sitting ducks.

I still can't figure out why the super smart, clever people of the dump are not all multi-millionaires.

That's right it a rigged game.

What about the 70-plus percent of Americans that consider themselves Christians and keeping the court to less than 30% leftist IAW the ratios of Americans who consider themselves leftist?

Any takers?

I'm good with that.  I don't think the DUmbasses have considered that little kink in their plans yet, though...
