Maybe it's me but something is really fishy about Roberts supporting ACA

[MADem]

33. Roberts is The Big Cheese now. He is NOT "beholden" to the GOP anymore.

He is the Chief Blahblahflacking Justice of the Frigging Supreme COURT, now! He gets the same paycheck if he's buddies with the GOP, or not.

And he's got a clown on the bench with him--Fat Tony, aka Nino, Scalia, who thought that Roberts stole the job that was rightfully his.

He's up there with the GREATS....it's the damn ROBERTS COURT, now, and he is a YOUNG man--relatively speaking.

He might be trying to show Nino who's boss. Or it could be something else entirely.

He has a choice. He can lie down with GOP dogs, and be a partisan tool, and he can get up with fleas....or he can build and burnish a lasting legacy, full of rulings that describe an arc across the history of the 21st Century.

He can be the dude who wrote the decisions that MADE A DIFFERENCE. Historians will write books about "The Roberts Court" if he plays his cards right.

It very well could be hubris that is driving him.

I really don't care--but I hope he keeps making the right calls, even if it's for selfish, legacy-building reasons.
