Chief Justice Roberts Affordable Care Act (ACA) decision: Winning Battle – Losing the War?

Posted on July 1, 2012 by Andy Hailey

Based on comments made by Thom Hartmann last week, Roberts has handed the extreme right another rallying cause. Just like Roe v Wade, this decision will be used for decades to rally the right-wing authoritarian base. It will inspire ALEC to write laws that will undermine Obamacare a little at a time as they have done with abortion.

This court has not regained my trust and confidence with this one decision. There are still four justices that want to take us back to at least 1950.
