Romney Promises To Nominate Judges In The Mold Of John Roberts On Website
Chief Justice John Roberts may have just sided with the liberal wing of the Supreme Court in upholding President Obamas health care law, but according to Mitt Romneys own website, the presumptive Republican nominee would nominate justices in the mold of Roberts.
As president, Mitt will nominate judges in the mold of Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Scalia, Thomas, and Alito, reads the Courts & The Constitution section of Romneys campaign website. These justices hold dear what the great Chief Justice John Marshall called the basis on which the whole American fabric has been erected: a written Constitution, with real and determinate meaning. The judges that Mitt nominates will exhibit a genuine appreciation for the text, structure, and history of our Constitution and interpret the Constitution and the laws as they are written. And his nominees will possess a demonstrated record of adherence to these core principles.

Bringing Left and Right together over Chief Justice Roberts
by kos
Oh my!
Furious conservative activists lashed out Thursday in the blogosphere at Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts for siding with the left and upholding the individual mandate in Obamacare, with some even calling for his impeachment.
Dear conservatives,
Unfortunately there's really no way to replace Roberts as chief justice except by either convincing him to resign/retire, or by impeaching him.
So to show that I'm not 100 percent partisan, 100 percent of the time, let me reach out in solidarity
It was
total bullshit what Chief Justice Roberts did to you. So I'm happy to join you in calling for his ouster, either voluntarily or via impeachment. Heck, I'll go out of my way to help you accomplish this laudable goal.
That's just how helpful I am.
