The very idea.......your stinking Mr. Roberts complaining because President Obama is not overjoyed with the Court's undemocratic ruling over corps. and campaign financing.

Well, Mr. frigging Roberts, we, the people, are not to happy with your ruling either. So sit on a broom handle and enjoy it while you can because when we, the people, get the Court back, guess which ruling gets overturned asap!

Oh yeah, suck on this post, Bill!

Roberts troubled by Obama criticism of Citizen United ruling

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts isn't happy with the President of the United States:

Chief justice: Obama criticism 'troubling'

From NBC's Pete Williams

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts today called President Obama's remarks about the court during the State of the Union message "very troubling."

Speaking to a law school class today in Alabama, Roberts said while anyone is free to criticize the court, the sight of a president dressing down the justices in front of Congress was "very troubling."

Roberts said he wonders if justices should attend State of the Union addresses anymore.

I guess Roberts is entitled to is political opinions, but as long as he's inserting himself into the public discourse, he should keep in mind that the people of the United States of America aren't that thrilled with his jurisprudence:

In Supreme Court Ruling on Campaign Finance, the Public Dissents

Memo to the Supreme Court: President Obama isn’t the only one who’s annoyed.

Obama raised eyebrows at his State of the Union address last month by criticizing the high court’s ruling throwing out limits on corporate spending in political campaigns. Turns out he’s got company: Our latest ABC News/Washington Post poll finds that 80 percent of Americans likewise oppose the ruling, including 65 percent who “strongly” oppose it, an unusually high intensity of sentiment.

Emphasis added, just in case Chief Justice Roberts reads this blog.
