Roberts?

Bit of a nonsequiter there, ER. But it's been delightful watching Republicans apoplectic, spluttering in incoherent fury like Mallard Fillmore on crystal meth cut with PCP, furious about the decision but unable to vent their massive spleens on their heretofore heroically conservative champion, John Roberts. The guy's carried so much water for wealthy and corporate interests, I wonder if maybe he felt the need to redeem himself after the ultimate betrayal of Citizens United?

What I've seen of the majority opinion written by Roberts is rather even-handed and sober. Though he got his zinger in, by writing several paragraphs that sounded like throwing out the mandate, until he then found a different reason to keep it. Fooled CNN and Fox and the White House, from what I've heard. I'll bet that brought the faintest little smile to Roberts' normally botoxic mien.
